They're not quite an million, they sell for about 3-4 thousand.

Fishoholic I think what Leah meant was if we had a million dollars then these fish could be more affordable. She was replying to my post on first page...... A nice fish but again I would have to strike the lottery to buy one.

Diana that is a cool looking fish looks like part of a wrasse family.

Another cool deep water species is the iron butterfly very rare and hard to get they need cooler temps so a chilled system temps between 18-24c found in the waters in western and south japan.

lol no, my bad; poor wording. I meant that the Dragon morays aren't fish; they're true eels. H. melanurus certainly is a fish (and yes, quite pretty too isn't it?)

Balistes vetula

and a 10 ft tank to go with it.

I saw one of these monsters at the baltimore aquarium, amazing.

They had a large queen trigger for sale at one of our lfs not to long ago. Nice fish but the lfs said any fish they put in with the queen trigger, it ending up killing them. Of course though, the queen trigger was in a smallish store display tank.
