Did you get yours online or at a store? The only place I’ve seen them all in one place is that fish place online but there never in stock

I'm in the UK and saw it on a list so just ordered it. There is only one other chap I know here with one and they just ordered it from the lfs. My understanding is they are a pretty common species just not imported much. I've seen a few people just find them in their lfs in the states when researching them so I'd guess they must be order-able with a bit of luck.

Blue dot stingray. My next tank will probably be a stingray tank, but not sure I'm willing to risk one of these any time soon. Probably go with a Urobatis sp. ray instead. Ultimately, that will probably be a better choice in terms of success rate. They also tend to be more "showy" and active in the tank anyway.

I'd also love to get a Centropyge resplendens but they're not legal to collect and only rarely captive bred, so the prices are mostly out of my budget...

Not really a fish, but I'd love an octopus (preferably Octopus joubini). The only thing stopping me is availability, short lifespan in captivity, and the relative unavailability of captive-bred specimens.

I also am a big fan of aquacultured fish. Even if it's a relatively popular fish in the hobby, if it's aquacultured, I'm excited.

I’ve been looking for these fish for over a year. Along with a fu Manchu radiata dwarf zebra and antennata

Divers den gets the red banded waspfish every now and then. That's where I got mine, you just have to keep an eye out on the update.

An Emperor Angel, I don't foresee me ever having a FOWLR tank big enough to house one though. :(
