that's what i was thinking as it has some similarities...but at the same time..it's different.

i showed it to a wholesaler and he said he's never seen one like that before. i went through a few books to see if i could ID it but couldn't yet. maybe it's a morph of the goldenback.

Yep thats a goldenback trigger. I have only seen 1 in person and its colors were not as near as nice as those.http://www.marinecenter.com/fish/triggers/goldenbacktrigger/

Looks like a blue throat trigger to me. I've seen several of them lately at the local fish stores. Very cool looking trigger, with almost transparent fins.

100% sure it's a gold back trigger. I have seen a few over the years. How much were they asking?

For a fish that u can get wholesale for $300-$400 i say that price is retarded.

yowsa, chill, who cares what they charge?

If you can afford a 1000 dollar fish, you can probably afford a 1500 dollar fish.
