To true GSP, anything thats getting away from wild harvesting is a step in the right direction. Still with $750.00 you could set up a whole clown species tank with picassos and a few BTA's. (This is coming from a student though so I'm sure I'm not there target market)

Maybe it is a ploy to get rid of them, charge an unreal price and people go crazy to own one, hehe!! Great marketing idea!!!

Nothing is wrong with regular clowns, I love mine...these ones are just new and rare. No need to get worked up. They are not failures but actually quite the opposite, they have been bred this way.

I agree they are not really nice but no need to get all upset about it. I just thought it was an interesting thing to post.

I agree and would never pay that for a clown, especially not these ones But they do have a market for sure. My dad in Singapore was the one to send me the link and actually they are already in demand there (none have made it there yet I don't think). Singapore being an EXTREMELY rich island with quite a few reefers is a great place to market fish like this.

There will always be people to buy them just because they are the new rare fish no one else has. Lots of people with lots of money to spend!
