    Saw the following earlier this evening when I was there:

    Apistogramma elizabethae - very red, but defects on dorsal
    Apistogramma agassizii "Fire Red"
    Apistogramma agassizii "Alenquer"
    Apistogramma iniridae - mixed in a tank together unsexed
    Corydoras duplicareus - 2 pieces left
    Dicrossus Maculatus
    Parosphromenus linkei
    Parosphromenus sp.
    Taeniacara candidi - very nicely coloured

    There were other cories, plecos and a few different pairs of kribs, but I couldn't ID them.

    Avoid peak period like lunch time or after work. I usually be there around 9.30pm till they close shop.

    sign, i went to the shrimps corner yesterday.

    other than the normal cherries, sakuras and yamatos in packs, now they have orange shrimps (think about 2-3 bags), blue shrimps (2), and tiger (1).

    also saw snow ball shrimps (2 bags) but not at the shrimp corner. these were 10 for $20.

    Was there on Friday.
    Saw some at the right side near the end in one of the small tanks.
    Less than 30. Color not so fantastic.

    Yup was there yesterday, they did have boraras brigittae left in the middle small tanks near the arowanas. Don't worry too much about the colouration in the shop. My experience thus far with boraras brigittae is that despite faded colours in the shop, they redden up alot once settled in a good environment.

    you know where they hang the packets of moss? When standing at the counter facing the packets of moss, on the left of the moss, you will see a vertical column of very small unlit tanks. they are mounted in between large tanks containing arowana on the top tier and plecos on the bottom tier. in that vertical column of tanks you will find your boraras. yesterday they were either in the top or the 2nd from top tank.

    Don't know how to describe any clearer than that sorry

    you should take your time and open your eyes and see slowly tank by tank!
    don't glance through.
    ONLY Blue Zebras.

    she doesn't always update the names on the tank. last time she wrote, it was "brigittae" on her boraras brigittae tank. ask her "brigittae" see if she knows
