    Mustard/Jewel tangs for $150 isn't a bad price. I had them usually for $135 unless it was a hybrid and then they could go as high as $350

    About a month ago there was a nautilus at my lfs. I didn't even know it was legal to own them.

    Not sure if these are rare but I've seen a dragon moray eel, couple of golden puffers, red angler fish, blue ring octopus, undulated trigger between a few of the LFS in my area.

    Mine had a Spanish Dancer for a total of 1 hour! I was there while he was unpacking a shipment and the owner made me stay to watch it swim..it took around 30 minutes before it did but it was amazing...

    ..then it died..
