Thanks Chase! $350 per inch, LOL .... I'm a spectator ....

A reasonable price for a conditioned fish.

This is the perfect size for this fish. A good price considering what they used to go for just a couple years ago.

It's a shame that you only get to enjoy the juvie phase for 6 months.

I actually like the adult coloration too. But people make fun of my taste in fishes.

it has subtle beauty, reminds me of the koran or grey angel.

2 incredibly beautiful fish that look amazing when well fed and have large tanks. seeing greys in the wild is a real treat!
