Honestly, that's the first time I've seen that symbiotic shrimp with it, so I can't say that's "over-priced".... If you're a collector, and going for the dream, you simply must have the proper shrimp, IMO :nerd:

The price i got was 750$ and that was with the shrimp as well. But it is a rare fish and i guess thats not to unreasonable.And i agree i wouldnt get it without the proper shrimp thats for sure. Unless you get one without the shrimp then later on get another one with the shrimp to perhaps pair them up :) ,And in that case breed them and become rich hehe

Ah that makes alittle more sense then i wasnt bashing you :) ! BTW that was me that just emailed you unique ;) thanks.The shrimp is actually beautiful.Is this the second one that you got this week because i saw more pics on another site of the shrip and goby in a bowl.

EDIT: does the one you have have an orange ring on the dorsal fin? Ive seen a picture somewhere with one that had a beautiful orange ring and it seems the past about 7 that have been available in the past month havnt had this ring. Or atleast i havnt been able to see the ring. Also is there a way to tell the difference between male/female that you know of?
 
Didn't think that at all, Tom! I can absolutely see how the product title might have been misleading! Actually, it looks like two of the same imgs got uploaded twice by mistake, when one of them should have been a group shot of them together. Price is for BOTH Goby & the Pistol Shrimp. My apologies and Product Title / Pic has been fixed accordingly on the site. Thanks! :D
 
Oops, missed your question - affirmative on the orange ring! I'll try to get some better shots tomorrow and possibly a video. Not too sure on how to tell the sexes, however. :(
 
I'd be torked if I payed $900 and a day later they are offering one for $500. If I was interested in one of these I'd wait. They are coming in now & the market will dictate the price. They are overpriced imo, even at $500.

Yeah, it sucks that there are people just a few posts up who had to pay over 500 for one. I guess its good that they're supporting their LFS(if they bought it from them). I would be royally ****ed off though :furious:

If you want to be the first one on the block with the shiny new car, you better be prepared to pay for it. :beer:
 
old town has one for $499 on the current newsletter i received yesterday. If it does not sell by tomorrow i might finally get to see one in person.
 
these things are all over all of a sudden. As soon as i cant get one there all over just my luck LOL. Watch what happens when i can finally get one they will be extinct .. I want that pair with the shrimp so badly .
 
I just saw them at a LFS near me for 250. 425 for the pair. Shrimp is included with them. These things are like a crashing stock market, next year they will be 50 bucks.
 
Just got an email from a vendor............$299.95 with shrimp:lol2:

I bet they aren't done dropping.
