Where are the Blue Squamosas?

[jasper24]

It seems like last year Blue Squamosas started showing up. Now I have not seen any vendors lately with nice Blue ones. Has anyone seen any nice ones lately?

there is one in the for sale thread. $800 for 6 inches

Wow! $800 sure is a stretch:eek2:

There definitely out there, but I remember Barry mentioning that farmers are just holding on to the ones they have to keep the prices high

Yeah I know of a place selling them online for $450-$600. A little rich for my blood.

www.reefscience.com usually has a few, though they are around 800

we're not even the market that they are targeting. They are keeping those prices up there for the Asian and European markets. They are not even trying to sell them to the US wholesalers.

Proboscis,

That Squammy is awesome. I've never seen one like that...how long have you had it?

 

[proboscis]

i got it as a 2-3 incher about a year ago for 180$ now its easily 5-6 inches and beefing up daily

That's a great find!
