Supply and demand, I guess. They're only found around Ascension Island in the Atlantic but the ones that are being offered by Live Aquaria are captive-bred. Did you notice that the fish you're getting for your $900 is only 1/2" to 3/4" long?

USD$900 - Ouch!!
Wow.. cant believe that price
Here in Bangkok, you can occaisionally get them for USD$80 to $120 - depending on availability. I dont think I could ever consider $900 - to big a risk on any fish. Brett

And I thought $500-600 for a flame boxfish was steep! :slap:
