"and so folks, till next time (its changed again...)"

Someone posted that at the end, and its exactly what I was going to say.

So wait, in a few months I'll change my name again too to keep up with the celestrial rasabora pearl micro dario.

Wonder how long it takes for a new name...

-Andrew

(Kidding on changing my name, but really anyone want to bet how many names this little fish gets?

)

thats interesting. They are very cool fish.

I'm pretty sure this time the name will stay the same.

It's a danio fish, and not worth its own genera. That's the summary from the article.

Its also amazing how quickly this sp. breeds, yet itt is still endangered in the wild!

Hmmm...and I was just reading about this fish in my issue of TFH that arrived in yesterday's mail.

"Initially known as the galaxy rasbora Microrasbora sp. "galaxy" but now properly called the celestial pearl danio Celestichthys margaritus..."

I guess they should've held off publishing that article.

So, the price should go down since its just a plain, old, boring danio.
