Goldenback Triggerfish

[x_burt]

Did anyone else see the Goldenback Triggerfish RVS put out today and imagine it in their display?!

 

[jsker]

No, that going to leave a scare

Yeah on the wallet!

 

[jsker]

LOL

Just looking at more pictures, that is a cool fish. Could not find any for sale, to see how much it would hurt a wallet

 

[x_burt]

They are really rare. I imagine it's going to be very expensive

A vendor here at R2R has had one for a while he was trying to sell for 650

 

[x_burt]

Really. That wasn't as crazy as I was expecting

Stunning fish!

I'm putting one in my reef soon

Where did you get it from? Did it come from RVS?

RVS is a collector in the Philipines that just collected a bunch of Goldenback triggers. I have a pair waiting in the uk for me. Let us know how you get on

I actually don't find them all that exciting.....and I love triggers. Kinda bland looking

I don't know much about this specific trigger and haven't seen one in person. Maybe it's the size or others factors such as reef safe and deep water that makes it rare? Maybe the gold would only come out in person? Can someone who has more experience with this trigger chime in?

Michael over at NYAquatic has one on his site ... cool fish!

It's deep water and rarer than cross hatch. I personally love the look , this will be trigger number 6 in my reef.

Haven't used him in years but back when I had a Fowlr, very good. He responds to text even late night. Text him if you have questions etc
