All I can say is “WOW” !!!! Wouldn’t it be cheaper to take a trip to the Cook Islands and get one ? JS.

Probably would be if you were willing to get trained in a rebreather and dive to 400 feet. Of course you would still have to know where to find these fish.

The guy that collects these puts his life in danger every time he goes after them. I'm sure that's not the only reason they're expensive...super rare to be offered and very beautiful.

It was gone in a blink!!!

 

[bsn_rn_cen]

It is very pretty.

I hope it went to a public aquarium where people can enjoy it instead of someone's living room.

Hope they remembered to use the code for the $50 gift card!!!

 

[bsn_rn_cen]

That's pretty funny @ADAM

 

[saltyhog]

Hope they remembered to use the code for the $50 gift card!!!

LOL!!!! And they got free shipping for the order over $199!

This may be a dumb question, but if this fish is used to living at 400 feet, how can it survive in 2 feet of water in an aquarium?

 

[sfin52]

I hope they grabbed the extended warranty as well. Good for 25,000 swimming miles

 

[Tamberav]

I have a code for 15 percent off.... Big savings right there!

 

[Colinadam80]

I want to know how its shipped

 

[bsn_rn_cen]

I hope their FedEx guy isn't to lazy to bring their doorbell.

I'm wondering the same thing!!

 

[dragon99]

I wonder what they are going to use that $50 gift certificate on....

 

[Hemmdog]

I sure hope it doesn’t end up in a pico. Lol

400 ft is about the maximum depth to find them. They range from shallow to that depth. Just seem to be very elusive
