Well, *my* most expensive fish is my Red Sea Purple Tang (Francis). She cost me $100.00 (ish)

I've got a $300 Black longnose Tang....Found a spotted Tang it will probably be around $700 or so I'm guessing. Don't think I can get that one. Friend has a French angel in a 360 that's probably almost 5lbs in weight, if he were to sell her,(not that he ever would)I'd say she would bring $2500 at least.

i have a clown trigger (very large and healthy as can be thats worth now about $300. i got him for $200.
i had a emperoro angel that i sold for $400. hugh.
my friend has some really rare trigger that he is selling for $450.
The best deal was a blue face for $500 that i can sell now for at least $150. but over all my clown trigger is now my favorite and he is in my 280g

I saw a Queen angel? at least that is what I think it was for 15,000$ and it was sold. It was going in a 3000 gallon tank in Wilmington. It was a very beautifull fish. It was about 14" long and about 2.5" thick. It had streamers off the tail of it. Kinda blueish grey color. I asked the guy if it pooped gold. He said it was rare and also hand raised since birth. Don't know the whole truth about the fish but it was awsome! Came from a place in Cali. or so i was told. The crate that the fish came in was the size of a coffin! and they told me it was 180 gallon.

Anthem, I agree,
I do not know for sure if it was a queen. I did not catch the name but the body was the same. Very strange color pattern on it, and it was the healthiest looking fish I have ever seen. I have never seen colors like these on a fish. I am going to look around on the net to see if I can find one..
