[FateX8]

not a huge fan of them but they do have something that i do like
their fins are clear with black spots

 

[Bongo Shrimp]

How much are they? That would help us determine if you should or should not buy one .

Well, I guess you are talking about the one at Old Town Tell Jim I said hello. The price he is selling it for is good. The one at Greenwich sold for around 750 and the one on LA is selling for 900.

No their from a different place in IL the LFS if about twenty minutes from where i am

 

[NaClCrocodile]

Wow those videos are kinda making me rethink their cool factor. For the price I could think of 25 cooler fish though.

 

[SDguy]

Extremely cool fish! Currently too expensive, IMO.

 

[extremehobbyist]

from what i know about them there are only about 20 of them in america

Keep in mind that they are cryptic and would best be in a small dedicated tank if you want to really appreciate this amazing little fish.

thanks for the heads up

 

[FishLipz]

I have to agree, thats one cool little fish. I just could think of alot of other stuff to get.

 

[secretreefer]

wow thats crazy. i would rather pick up a bunch of hot corals and equipment instead of that 1 guy.

 

[extremehobbyist]

now my LFS is selling them for 500 i think thats the best ive seen on a Lotilia graciliosa what do you guys would you bounce on this

 

[nayrgaijin]

It's an awesome fish IMO.... However is it a fish you guys want?
