    Biotope is the best bet, also try Ben TB and Choong Sua. Check the LFS list for address and contacts.

    hi stormhawk... long time no see too...

    wah, your list of fishes has really made my life a lot easier about finding a fish from vietnam. Yupz, same as hwchoy, i am interested in the book you are refering to...care to share where you got it from?

    i am rather surprise to see sundadanio axelroldi there as in almost all books that i have read, they seem to point to their origin in sumatra or some parts of indonesia... this is quite puzzling.

    still cant find uropthalmoides. been to choong sua, ben, biotope, all don't have! will try other fishes soon, especially if axelroldi is confirmed to be found there!

    the axelrodi's still quite a rare fish. quite unlikely to have it sold for the price of cardinals, harlequins and the commoner stuff, i think...

    surprising to hear the S. axlerodi occuring in Vietnam.

    I have a bunch of S. axelrodi blues and reds, perhaps I can be persuaded to part with them if someone is really sincere and keen to have them

    wah, me certainly wouldnt mind having the axelroldi, though i think it is ctainly difficult to part with the fish. Moreover, it does not travel well. A few might perish on the way even.

    budak, i saw axelroldi selling for a dollar and even lesser before, though i hvae to say they are poor specimens, very thin and small.

    I certainly am surprise to hear that it can be found in vietnam as well. maybe it is like the case of the "boraras maculatus" that i think i saw...

    will carry on my search for urophthlamoides and micros. think i saw rasbora danionensis, but i cannot confirm.
