Mike,

Thank you for your patience. At this time we do not have the Batfish you are interested in purchasing in quarantine. Additionally when we acquire Batfish into our facility they are normally held for approximately one month before they are offered on our site. We do not foresee having the specimen available for quite some time.

Plus they are very very difficult fish, so unless you really know what you're doing and you have a larger than a 20g reef tank, i recommend against getting one mike
