Why does this 3" fish costs $4500? I don't see how special it is...
Fuck yo cheap ass shit nigga, my angelfish cost 10 grand nigga, and that's only if the Japs don't buy it nigga, you know how much $20 large is in fucking yen nigga?
It's probably rare? Hard to breed? How the fuck should I know?
>>332102they are all wild caught.you should be able to find a conspic for under 2500 though, peppermints on the other hand, if i saw one for 10,000 and had the money thats actually kinda cheap for them. i've seen them anywhere from 14-20 lately.
g...what? for that much money, those fish better live for 200 fucking years
>>332381Well, there are people who buy ferari, jewelry, furcoats. Its the same with exotic fish, its just something that you like and that you can brag about.
>>332396Dunno about you, but I think 4500 goldfish sounds more interesting.
>>332407It does sounds interesting, but the problem is I have to work the whole month to buy a fish for such money. Oh, and I cant spend anything on rent or food either.
Why can't they be captive bred?
>>332419because that'd make sense
>>332412So eat the fish dumbass.
>>332419because raising pelagic marine larvae is a FUCKTON more difficult than raising freshwater species (although they have mangaed to culture a few species). culturing the right zooplankton and phytoplankton, raising them through metamorphosis, and then to saleable size. It's cost prohibitive and many species have yet to be successfully spawned. Just like you won't find any captive bred tangs
>>332096The chink filename suggests it's a mixed breed... that's why I guess.
