Hi all,

Its been about a year since I purchased 3 B. caudipunctata and 2 B. eos from a store down in Providence, RI. Wow how they have grown! The alpha specimen, which I am guessing is a male has developed a deep blue body coloration, an orange tinged dorsal fin with black spots and a lemon yellow caudal (tail) fin with large black spots. This guy is a Mun river variant of which Bogdan posted photos in the species profile page. The other 2 lack the spots in the dorsal fin so they are a regional variation but never the less awesome looking. Will try to post photos soon. Just thought I would share my observations.

photos would be lovely, she said hopefully.

Yes Mike, pics please. (I must have read your earlier post about them, that's why I thought you'd know all the "area" shops)

I'd love to see the pics, too Mike. I miss my eos. He was king of the tank. Unfortunately he disappeared. Really. One day he was there, the next day he was just gone. Nowhere to be found. I even broke down the tank looking for him...

It remains a mystery.

Hi Mike

I loved my B Eos when I had them, they are a stunning fish even if they can be a bit bad tempered at times (well most of the time for mine), I let mine go to someone who already had a couple in a 6' tank and was looking for some more. I am glad I managed to get some nice photos of them before I let them go.
