is this percula worth $60?

[reefsafe]

Your thoughts?

 

[edwing206]

IMO it's worth more! I've never seen one like that before.

It is interesting looking (in a cool way). What do you think? Is it worth $60 to you? Thats all that matters, and that it's in good health.

 

[JHardman]

IMO no. It is just a misbarred A. percula, not uncommon or rare. Look in the growout tanks of any A. percula breeder and you will find one just like it sooner or later.

 

[Sacrifice]

it depends on how bad you want it, otherwise "NO."

Like the others have said, it's only worth it to the person who pays for it. Personally if I had to ask, I would pass. Any doubts to me is an automatic "NO" in my checkbook.

By the way, is that from Ki's? you know you get that 10% club discount from him.

mmmmmmmmm it looks cool but its all about you if you want to spend the money on a pastor fish or not.people tell me oh dont do this and that but i pretty much do what i want to begin with

misbar ocellaris/percula are all the rage right now. Look at the snowflake/picasso/naked clown market. The price seems directly related to how far from holotype the fish are. I prefer holotype fish the more closely they resemble the holotype the more attractive to me. For a desirable misbar $60 is not out of the normal. It is strange, most of these were culled years ago and now a few demand a premium. The less valuale misbars are typically those which are close to the holotype such as incomplete barring but with the bars in the normal places.

It depends if you are willing to pay $60 or not ;-)

 

[mbunaman]

Its crazy because tank raised mis barred fish wholesale are cheaper than perfect barred clowns. And retailers are taking the culled fish and marking them up to create this designer fish market. If you like it then its worth it. Its all based on personal preference. If you look around you can find it cheaper.
