This one is expensive I suppose because of the "deepwater" in the description. Not sure but those colors are awesome. http://www.liveaquaria.com/diversden...+3&ddid=272054 http://www.liveaquaria.com/images/di...707151-127.jpg |
Saw this one a couple of weeks ago. He did not stay online for long

the gem tang is just really hard to fine
the candy basslet is deepwater, so you have to decompress it, which is hard. and its colors are very striking thanks for the replies, these are awesome. |
So I'm 99.99% sure it's photoshopped but I hope the yellow tang with the neon blue markings that used to be the divers den icon was real...if you know what I'm talking about lol

The decompression of the fish is usually done by placing the fish in a cage and bring it up in steps with waiting periods at each stop. It takes some time but isn't hard at all. |

Gem tangs and zebra tangs are fun to see on there. Conspic angels go for about $3,000 usually. There was a huge shark on there for months - it kept getting cheaper and cheaper.
Cross-hatch pair would be my dream DD purchase. |

There is a Gem tang and a Bandit on there now, both on sale. Conspic angels are available from time to time. Depends on what you consider rare I guess. This is one that rarely available at this size... Ted (Humaguy) purchased this little girl

Back to the candy basslet -- once it has been decompressed, are there any special care considerations?
Pretty damsel on there tonight. Starcki Damselfish |
Dr. Seuss soap fish is a rare expensive fish I e only seen on DD

http://www.liveaquaria.com/diversden...+3&ddid=274889 I remember, in Germany back in the early 2000s this fish was demanding the outrageous price of up to €500. On top of that it is a real a$$ of a fish that will harass everything in your tank - no thanks! Quote:
Hopefully we will soon see some Gramma dejongi in the US now that trade with Cuba is legal. And hopefully the price will come to a reasonable level soon. |

The pricing for some of these fish may seem insane but when you consider when they come from- some really isolated places and from serious depths, rebreathers/closed circuits are used, then factor in transportation/cargo fees, flights, and most importantly, this is how these people make a living, it really puts things in perspective. |

So aside from peppermint angels, are Clarions basically the holy grail, i.e. most rare?
