The funny thing for me is that the most expensive fish i ever bought was a fresh water ray.

Mine was a type of jawfish, I paid just over $100(paid too much probably) for it but killed it with in a month...I attribute this to not knowing what I was doing back then.

I think people buy fish like that so that when they have a dinner party they can casually tell their less well-off friends how much they paid for it. It's all about 1 rich guy trying to impress another rich guy with their stuff.

$3400 and no live guarantee??!!
The most I ever paid for a specimen was about 15 years ago, before I was married and had kids, I paid $300 for a Bonnet head , and $250 for a black tip reef shark, and $150 for a large Green Moray(in a 1,000 gallon tank I used to have). Actually were good buys back then from a friend who was able to get straight from a ditributer. Nowadays I dont have big tanks or much money, so the grouper I just bought the other day for $79 was kinda pushin the envelope. |

What puzzled me is..."no arrive alive guarantee. But we DO guarantee it won't be DOA".
Can someone explain the loophole to me on this? What the HECK is the difference between guaranteeing it will arrive alive, and guaranteeing that it won't be dead?
Either way...am I the only one that thinks that fish really isn't that pretty?
back on topic...I spent $79 on a Powder Blue. But I'm with Fly...dont' ASK how much I've spent on a coral before. hahahah

Arrive alive usually means that the guarentee lasts a few days after arrival. No doa means that if it is alive when you open the box then all bets are off.
