[nacl-h2o]

OMG, That's as much as one of my entire setups, there is no way I would put that into one fish.

 

[saltylake]

has anyone here ever owned this fish or one of that much value??
I would love to hear what someone was willing to pay for certain fish.
thanks

Very beautiful fish though!

Talk to Mike S about fish of this magnitude, he'll probably tell you he has a tank full of them.

Man, I got pretty pissed when my hippo tang died. I don't know what I'd do if I killed something like that!

 

[broomer5]

pretty fish
pretty expensive fish
pretty slim chance of me owning that fish
pretty fish

i did run across a tang that went for 6000 and another that was up for trade (not allowed for sale) equal to 10000 and ended up having sold across the pic. hows that for the wallet OUCH!!!!!!

If you think that is expensive, wamp should share some of hs stories with you. A shop near him has fish way more expensive than that.

There are only a couple shops in the North Palm Beach area so chances are I have been to this guys shop before.
There is one that is fairly small but does carry some unusual stuff from time to time. Although the shop is small he does keep it clean and the few times I was there everything looked healthy.
$2500 for a fish, not even if I won the lottery.

I cant imagine having enough money to even consider buying a fish for that much. I felt like I was robbed after spending $100.00 on my purple tang. Its nice to dream though. Just think: an entire tank (say 200 gallons for this fish) filled with species of that value. WOW!

[byrself]

could you imagine coming home and finding it upside down, or that it got caught by that pesky mantis shrimp?

no way i'd pay that much for a fish. i'll go catch one myself first..

 

[byrself]

oh well, no clarion angel for me =) not going back to jail. especially in mexico.

that probably explains the price though. <img src="graemlins//mischievous.gif" border="0" alt="[Mischievous]" />

 

[tru conch]

nice fish, maybe if i have the winning lotto ticket....

 

[dirtybilge]

Very nice post! If I had the money I would buy a clarion angle, thats whats makes this hobby so cool is buying rare expensive fish that noby else has!

On the topic of angels, how much does a King Angel cost?

 

[demosthenes]

Thanks, would they do okay w/ my current livestock? I have a Volitan Lionfish, an Engineer Goby, a Yellow Tang, and a Kole Tang. Is this too much bio-load for a 75 gallon? Parameters are Amm-0 Trite-0 Trate-0 Phosphate-0 Calcium-600. The tank is fully cycled, has a DSB (120 lbs), a a wet/dry filter, here's the order. 1. An overflow collects the water which flows downwards into a 2. tower, mine is filled with a prefilter, phosphate pads, a mesh bio-roll, and 1 gallon of bio-balls, or 74 balls. From there my water is sucked into a 3. SeaClone 100, and after it leaves the skimmer it is forced through 4. heavy-duty phosphate pads, and then is 5. pumped back up by a 750 gph Mag Drive pump. I also have a Magnum 350 Pro w/ 2 Bio-Wheels. The canister is filled w/ Nitrate Reductor. I also have 2 Hagen 402 powerheads. I have 125 lbs of LR, and for lighting I will have, in a couple of months, a MH/VHO system, supplemented by PCs. 2 175 W MHs 10000K, 2 110 W VHOs, and 2 55 W PCs. Are there any problems in my setup that would prevent me from getting a King Angel, if so, please let me know.
