Does anyone own such a fish or seen it in the LFS?

I have 2 pairs of very young adult X. montezumae 'Capuchin', wild caught. Not an easy livebearer to breed it would seem.

Of course you won't see X. montezumae and most wild type species on commercial lists. Mostly you get them from people who maintain them privately. I think this is because wilds are not as prolific as aquarium strain X. helleri, X. maculatus, X. hellerix X. maculatus and etc. Thus I think it is difficult to produce them on a mass scale, at least for now.
