There are many variants of blue colours. I love this deep blue version too. This piece I caught it at the Reservoir.

Around $10+ for 8" and above, you can find this too at Bukit Timah Wet Market (beside Toh Yi). There is a small aquarium stall near the toilet within the wet market. Tell the stall owner and he can get for you.

Cheers,
S1

Many thanks. Went to C328 yesterday, saw 4 pcs in the small tanks beside the packing aunty. Each cost $25 ( about 3 inches). 2 pcs light blue and 2 pcs darker blue. ( don't know whether because they are very stressed ) Saw 2pcs orange color in the betta tank sitting on the floor. Each cost $10 ( about 3 " ).

Hi bro, the Blue Moons cost $18 each. I bought them. There are two pieces of some cherax species, black base colour with purple/reddish(like rust)/white spots, looks a bit like stars in the milky way. Those cost $25.

Also, anyone saw the HUGE blue lobster near the entrance? Look at the floor tanks where they sell the red clarkiis and zebras/holthuisis. Directly above them (lowest tier of water-filled fish tanks), on the extreme right. Huge lobster, I think close to 1 foot in size. No kidding! You need to use your entire hand to grab him; your thumb and index finger just isn't enough! Retailing at $98.
