Messel Fish

Bowfins are extremely rare anywhere--even today with modern specimens, and the Messel specimens are some of the rarest fish available in the world.  This group represents the last of the Messel that my supplier from Germany has.. collected in the 70's.  These are some of the most affordable specimens you will ever find!
