    Ha ha

    Fish and any other product are only worth what people are willing to pay for them.... to me those clown fish are not worth 6k - maroons and perculas are prettier then them imo.

    That's crazy. Maybe if I were a multi-multi millionaire... no ... probably not even then.

    I wonder if there is anyone on these forums with several thousand dollar fishes.

    Its not 6000. Only 5999.99;D. Those things look like ugly cinnamon clownfish. I'd say those are about $5980 over priced.

    Just an additional comment: Amphiprion Mccullochi is said to be quite commonly found off of Lord Howe Island in Australia. Commercial and recreational collecting is strictly forbidden in those parts, and the only way to get them out is through scientific permits issued by the NSW.

    On that note, kinda feels like the time my LFS getting a stock of 250 Clarion Angels this past Thanksgiving. Selling for $2,600 (excuse me LPC136, $2,599.99 ;D) guess how many they have now? 250.

    I'm sure someone somewhere is looking at them right now, about to whip out their credit card and seconds away from paying an amount equal to my mortgage payment. I guess if they want them that bad they'll buy it. But it's a little too rich for my blood.
