Two yellow tangs 3.5 to 4 inches $350 each

[Nan.Roti]

I'm not actually selling them. I just saw their price is through the roof on live aquaria. They've been in my tank over 2 years. Eat mysis, nori, pellets, etc. Pic for reference

You are rich

I wouldn’t say rich, I’m lucky I can keep them all together !

Yesterday I went to Absolutely Fish in Clifton NJ small Yellow Tangs are $350.
That is insane, I'm pretty sure if no one buys them prices will go down.

Wow. 3 months ago I paid $50

Crazy how the prices have shot up. Wonder if the demand is going to rise with the absurd prices or everyone is just going to accept sailfins as the new yellow.

Anyway, seeing as OP isn't actually selling them, they're 120 or 150 at Ocean Gallery in Jersey if anyone is looking to invest. lol

Funny, now the LFS or vendors have to keep feeding them , caring for them etc ..
What if , for some reason or another the yellow tang dies. Oooppss , you just lost 200.00 or 350.00 or whatever ridiculous amount you were asking for.
I get it , make your profit but also be reasonable . Stop being so greedy and trying to squeeze this hobby to death.

Biota is going to make a fortune with their tank raised fish.

I have no problem paying 150 for a yellow tang that is established and is full and eating... I have literally been trying to add 2-3 more (I have 2) and they Fkn die in qt sometimes.. now lie was mentioned the petstores May treat them better.. I do have access to wholesale but gave that up many years ago.. yellow tangs are like 8$
I can find out what they are wholesale.. achilies were 80
Fish are super cheap.. I may sign up again just to show the mark up. Obviously the stores need to make money and take risks as many fish die

I love them as well... but... Pet stores get these fish and them add them to their nasty waters.
Can we buy direct from that company? I bet they will raise the price

 

[Jamesmost]

I got 3/$90
They killed one so were $45 each

 

[jkidd155]

There always someone who’s gonna buy it no matter what the price is

 

[Jamesmost]

I wonder if im gonna pay more attention to them now,
