Fish I.D.

Can anyone identify this specimen?

I am terrible with fish IDs but I happened to click this and I believe it is a blotched anthias, Holanthias borbonius. Maybe someone can confirm but I am pretty sure.

How much did you pay? I think they are kind of expensive.

Definitely a Blotched Anthias

 

[Rybren]

Yup. It is.

I am unfortunately not the owner of this guy, but my LFS sent out their weekly update of new livestock and I find this specific species to be just so beautiful. Thank you so much for the I.D. guys!

They are not a cheap fish...

I would call them pricey, not expensive. When you look at how much other fish go for. I have seen small Blotchy's at 125, but expect to pay around 200 or over.
