Some nice article on the subject of fish trade.

I don't want to start a debate, as I myself have a deep interest as a hobbyist.

But let's continue encouraging sustainability wherever possible or our children won't be able to pursue our hobby.


(Let's also consider the COVID problem that halts transports...)

It states the fish is 1 foot(12”) Show Size fish are usually $$$

Don’t buy him, I guess?

The market will only bare the prices people are willing to pay. It’s capitalism at its best.

Seems normal to me for a 1’ WYSIWYG fish

 

[piranhaman00]

It’s a 5” fish.

 

[bluedevils6653]

4 7/8 not a foot.

Pandemic pricing. Its gonna get worse before it gets better....If it ever gets better.

After Petco took over, prices on many fish went through the roof with this organization, even before the current situation with Covid and shipping appeared.

This one is even more ridiculous. Divers den has typically been 3-4x more than lfs prices. Nothing new.

Why would you ever pay that much for those 2??? I feel like DD would've been significantly cheaper, including shipping
