I just do not understand why this fish is as $$$$ as it is. Its from what I hear easy to breed, and virtually most all thats up for sale is all tank bred. In this region other fish are dirt cheap but these little fellas routinely sell for $20-to 30 each and they are only 1/2 to 3/4" long at that. I bought a bunch one time they had them in the local marine slaughterhouse (*****) when they had some nice ones for $4.99 each, but that was the only time I have ever seen them there. They have a sign with Blue Neon Goby $9.99 but they have not had any in a long long time. So why could this very common fish be so expensive.

LFS are what they are.....
SWF list them for $ 8.00.
Clowns are they most common bred SW fish I think and they average aroud $ 30.00 or so at a LFS. here , a tank bred percs list for $ 15.00...of course theres the extra charges that really make them cost more.....so....
