I have not seen the fiji variant in person. I know its subjective, but how good does it look?

I've been Looking at photos too much lately and I'm thinking of trading my african in on a fiji!
 
There's a fair amount of variation with all regions of the species. The variation of the Fiji ones I particularly like are when they end up more blue than green, but you don't see those all that often on the market.
 
My LFS had a couple in and it does vary. One had colors that looked kind of washed out and the other was stunning. Probably a fish best left to purchase from a Local Fish Store if you have the option.
 
Ordered a Fiji, but got this. Beautiful, but not a Fiji variant. Glad I still have my current exquisite.

You are sooo correct! unfortunately my LFS would never order one.
