I did but not a pre-order. I travel up KL xiang leng and tapao a few pieces back SG. You could easily do that just over at JB no need to travel inside so far like me. i had 8 red and 5 thai blue. All the thai blue died during transport cause they were fed before the journey.

It's seems like the season now for thai blue kelah. Prices seem a lot lower than before - maybe now more distributors are importing and supplying locally.

I dont own a piece nor seen these in live action. Base on charactteristics alone. Yes, very close to sinesis pics i seen elsewhere. This Sub-category of tor also got a few other tor species very similar to it.
