JackJackJack Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 yellow tangs are about $110 here and flames about $90, what are they there? my bi-colour cost me $15.40 :lol: and that was full retail price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reef Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 Yellow tang vary, but the last lot was about $160nzd and $130 for a flame, So there is not much difference in imported stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackJackJack Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 well there is when you put in the exchange rate. $70+difference is a fair bit IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimera Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 agreed, but he did say they varied so perhaps the $160 was a high price?! $160 nzd is $140 aud so only $30 difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetskisteve Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 shit, last time a saw a flame angel in the shop it was a lot more than that, maybe Ben could chip in here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainman Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 It's true that in Oz the local species (i.e. GBR) are quite cheap. Clowns and so forth are now commonly aquacultured. It's also true that imported species (esp. from Hawaii/Red Sea such as Yellow/Purple Tangs remain very expensive. Well, anyway, it's cool that you guys have an underground reefing scene in NZ!
