Bro, it's not elusive la...
I got them from my Indonesian friends... Like the black gold lace, the Viets and Indonesians paid $150usd a pair for them and they feedback to me that the offsprings don't live up to their price tag. So most kept quiet and never resell.
To me, it's just another for-fun strain to look at.

Some of my f1 juveniles...
They are only 3-4 months old and tails already start curling...
My observation is that blue color starts weakening into silver, pale, purple...
Slow growth and finnage is very thin... In Dota terms, this strain is very 'paper'.





A good alternative to create this kind of blue/silver lace, which my breeder friend is already doing, is to cross snakeskin with blue grass. It will produce tougher finnage laces and won't cost anything near 150usd.
