The function of business is to profit. They can charge what they want. The prices are high because supply is about to get very limited and there are people willing to pay these prices. No one is forcing anybody to buy yellow tangs.That's criminal. If they were giving the cash to conservation efforts, that would be one thing. At this, they are just profiteering. Shameful
The cost of conservation is to just leave the fish in the wild and have more effort go into captive breeding. Ironically it will take high prices to do that.
