Very nice fish! And very nice photographs, too :)

Here is an interesting thread regarding these fish, unfortunately no final conclusion regarding the maker >> Link

Just my personal observation: they don't seem to be very uncommon -- I have seen quite a few both locally and on ebay during the last couple of months...

edit: just realized you are from Austria as well -- so maybe I have seen one of those fish in real life :D
Und willkommen im GMB und liebe Grüße aus Wien!
