Since this thread is already a little off topic...

I'm a long time forum member & a long time hobbyist...

In regards to comments on threads regarding pricing and past prices, going prices, retail prices and deals...

I actually like the feedback, it helps everyone make a more informed decision on purchases. I think they are actually helpful. As long as comments are not bashing anyone.

Just my 2 cents.

For most these fish are out of reach, but for some it's just another day at the fish store. Hope these fish find a good home!

Agreed, HELPFUL and positive comments are usually welcome. Other comments, not so much. In this case, these are rare and hard to find fish, that don't really have an exact price, more of a current market price kind of thing. I think pricing posted is in line with the items for sale.

The links I posted in the first post that go to Reef Builders do mention some pricing if all you want to do is feed the curiosity. A simple Google search will come up with some pricing too.

There was a higher offer refused already.

Interestingly, I've been wondering to myself if the Gem is actually a Scopas x Gem hybrid because he doesn't look like a typical Gem. I am taking some pics tomorrow and am posting them to some peep who can confirm/deny. This would be an interesting twist and make the fish worth about double what a typical Gem goes for.
