Why has no one ever told me?

I just noticed my name is spelled wrong!! Its suposed to be Boesemani Fan! :duh:

Well, you aren't the only one. Bosemani googles 577 hits - as opposed to with the "e" getting 2,530. But you CAN change the fish spelling on your signature tank specs, although it won't match your name then.

Honestly, I never realized it. If I had, I would have thought the other spelling had been taken when you were chosing a name. Happens a lot.

Dang... my name is spelled wrong too!
It's supposed to read Flappy*McSwish!
aw man...

:( :duh:

[Ghost_knife]

I always thought your name was fun....Oh well.

[Bosemani Fan]

Ok, I figured out where I got confused, They are also called Bosemans Rainbow, after their Founder.

LOL...hadn't noticed! Now I gotta check my signature to see if I spelled them right in my tank listing!

Just curious :D..whatcha doing with all the Boesemani fry??? When they grow up?? I will be looking for a few more.

I just figured that either that's how you wanted to spell it or "Boesemani Fan" was already taken.

I think it's supposed to be "Boeseman's Rainbow" and not "Boseman's Rainbow". I'm sure they mean to spell his name correctly:

"BOESEMAN, M. Emeritus Curator of Fishes of the Nationaal Natuurhistorisch Museum (formerly Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie), P.O. Box 9517, 2300 RA, Leiden, NETHERLANDS. Home address: Prins Bernhardlaan 54, 2341 KL Oegstgeest. Tel. 0031-71-5174477; e-mail: boeseman @ hetnet.nl. "

And when I did a search at the Nationaal Natuurhistorisch Museum site, I got 4 publications with Boeseman on it and none with Boseman. Course I can't read Dutch so I have no idea what it said :)

I've got to assume that those "Boseman's" are just misspellings.

Well, most of them have been taken! I am actually down to about 10 right now. and will be moving 5-6 in about 1 month, and I am going to keep the rest. But I will probaly breed again around Mid-January or Febuary. so, I will let you know! Would you want Fry or would you want a Mop full of eggs? But I warn you, Its a long process, They grow very slowly!

I know they're hard to sex as youngsters, but I might need some females if you have any juvies in Jan/Feb. Bad ratio now of 3 males to 2 females and thus far I've yet to find a site that will let me order them by sex.

Actually, if you end up with an extra mop, I might be interested. Would be cool to hatch them out, even if it takes a long time.
