Atlantis has also been known to sell items as wild caught when they were not...

Either certificate or through trust.

Given the really close realtionship Peter has with the Brichard's, those fish are either wild caught, or discarded breeding stock from the Brichard's farms, since no one is importing Burundi anymore.

Either way, for that price they are more likely a better quality than 80% of the LFS stock.

You could always ask him, or make him send you a picture.

I would lean towards the latter Geoff.
They ones I see listed are awful cheap so I kind of have my doubts though.

with the size of the fish,I really dont think they are mature enough to breed.Ive got some at that size and they are only a little over 1 yr old.
