They aren't rare, my LFS has them pretty often, sell for about 30 bucks. There are 3 different kinds. The one you have is the most common and is called the whitebanded possum wrasse, Wetmorella albofasciata. You want to keep other non-agressive fishes with him. In a 29 gallon I'd go with something like a firefish or a watchman goby.

I think they're extremely cute little fish.
I've wanted one for quite a long time, but dont want to set up a small tank for it.
