Wrought Iron Butterfly?

[jhemdal1]

All,

A California wholesaler had a wrought iron butterflyfish fish (Chaetodon daedalma) listed today for $1200. Is anyone seeing these in their area, and if so, what are the prices running?


Thanks,

Ahhh,

Answered my own question - I got an email this morning, an exporter in Japan has them for 40,000 yen. Still, the landed cost to me would be around $750. Is anyone seeing them for less than that?

phishybusiness has one on their site for about $1k.

A fish should do water changes and clean the skimmer for a grand.
