Flame angels worth that?

[ozadars]

Hi everybody,
My lfs have flame angels for $117 but on swf they are for $29...
Here some fish and corals are cheaper then US but some are more expensive like this angel... Do u think i should buy a flame angel for $117? there are coral beauties and rusty angels for $30 BTW... what do u think?

 

[ozadars]

They should be wc

If you can get a coral beauty for $30 vsover a hundred for a flame...then I'd say no to the flame.
Personally I think thats a bit too much for a flame even if it is captive raised!

Agreed that the price would be high for U.S. prices, but given his location I can see why they are so expensive. Ozadars are you converting this price to U.S. dollars for us?

Yes thats US dollar. We use Lira here. Then i m gonno go w/ another dwarf... thanx

you might think about that a little before putting in 2 dwarf angels in a 65.. i tried once in a 55 with a coral bueaty and a flame.. they FORCED me to upgrade to a 125 =)

Captive Bred Flame Angels are from what I've seen for sale in the 70-85 dollar range.

wow i almost spit out my soda when i saw the price than i checked your location. i would not pay that much for a flame angel , they are cool fish but imho i wouldnt pay.

Man you are smoking crack if you are going to spend that much!!!!! My rule is that if it costs more than a GOOD dinner out, don't spend the $ on it-unless you are going to eat VS flush it!!!!!

 

[ozadars]

Redawg, i dont have any dwarfs right now in my 65 gal. I had a coral beauty but he didnt eat anything and died but i loved his shape very much so i m again looking for a new dwarf...
Daniel411, we dont have anything captive bred here... they are all wc
aarone, i live in Turkey and dont think so they will ship here...
NCJETSKIER, lol.

 

[aarone]

never know until ya try!
Fed ex might ship there...I know it is a global company.

[ozadars]

Sure there can be some companies who will ship fish but that will cost too much* and the fish will probably die while shipping also i dont need it, i can try another dwarf angel... but thanx for the suggestion aarone

 

[aarone]

no problem. Good luck getting your fish!
