flame wrasse
 

Hey everyone!

I just noticed today that there was a Hawaiian flame wrasse at j and l for $56.95! Am I missing something, or is this a totally different fish? I'm used to seeing these for $250-300.

It was probably a female

Right I forgot about that! Thanks!

Were you in the store and saw it? Or just saw it on the website?

Just saw it on the website, going over there soon, just checking out what they have.

Females won't be that cheap. Doesn't make sense. I'm guessing they mislabeled a fairy wrasse of some sort when they were uploading onto the website.

Yup, most likely Myka is right. When a store gets in flame wrasses they wouldn't be that careless to incorrectly price the expensive wrasses. Those are the fish you really pay attention to because they are soooo expensive to bring in and some times very delicate in transit to boot. But hey there are TONS of pretty $60 wrasses out there.

I was there , yesterday , they have one but for 185$ !

That's really strange! I'll get the Latin name when and hopefully that can clear it up!

Nothing mislabeled , that's what they sell females for. I was talking with someone there in livestock a few days ago ,and was told female flames sell for $59.
