A few weeks ago they had a 2500 dollar fish, I forget the name, an angel of some sort. The guy working said they sold about 10 of them so far! Is that insane!?

I dont think they are getting the Clarions for that little ($1500.00 wholesale) by the time they pay cities and the Mexican government to allow them to be collected and "deported" they are probably only makeing a few hundred on the fish.

They must make more than a few hundred. They prob make more to cover the loss if one dies, Like all the other fish they sell. They usually pay about 40% of what they sell for in the store. I know this cause a Lfs told me today actually he pay's 40 for a bluespot jawfish, they sell for over a hundred. I just can't see them keeping a fish that costs thousands to make a few hundred. Just my opinion though I'd like to find out more
