meat cleaver Fingerling Posts: 24 Kudos: 9 Votes: 0 Registered: 12-Feb-2003  | From my knowledge involving Flowerhorn pricing it all depends on the "grade" of the fish. My lfs here had 2 at about 3.5" and they were $25 or $30 a piece. When I asked the owner about high prices he informed me that was was basically for Show fish so it is possible these ones are of a higher grade. Defianatly a neat fish I would have gotten one if I had a place to put it. |
