    Anyone know whats a Blue Spotted Rasbora?

    Was at Sea View on the weekend, they had this on their list but it was sold out

    According to the lady there, its similar in size to the Spotted Rasbora( Boraras maculatus) they are also selling but just that instead of a black spot u get a blue spot....

    sounds a bit like Boraras brigittae.. and no, its not spelled "Brigette". Or maybe B. merah...

    blue spotted, B. merah or perhaps even Sundadanio.
    why I don't do garden hybrids and aquarium strains: natural species is a history of Nature, while hybrids are just the whims of Man.

    I thought the brigittae or merah is a bluish black line and not spot?

    merah is a magenta/purplish spot.

    How much were they selling? If it is in the region of 10cents per piece, then I'm willing to put money to say it is maculatus or the ura......(don't know how to spell but it, the exclaimation mark boraras). Because the last time seaview showed me the fish and use the 'blue-dot' name it was either of the fishes mentioned with a paler shade/reflection.
