Anyone see the real Acan Maxima?

[thanhreef]

Yesterday I purchased a super rare and beautiful acan via online and it was told an Acan Maxima. I wanted to know what Acan Maxima was. I googled it and it was hard to find the real Acan Maximas. Are they existed? It's interested that Acan maximas are only known to exist in Omen waters, where collection is illegal.

What is your opinion?

Likely not an Acan maxima. If it is, it is illegal, and you shouldnt be associated with it.

well, that info was in 2008. that's what I found out after ordered. I don't know whether they would be allowed in currently. I am going to give a seller a call to find out .

Collection from the gulf of Oman is still prohibited.

Aquacultured perhaps?
