AW Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 LOL Was in at Jasens today for the first time in a couple of years. $200 for a yellow tang $140 for a Powder blue Probable a meaningless post but I found it funny how prices change. Oh yeah, $300 for a potters angle $220 for a juv. emperor. When did potters become so popular/pricey? It was nice to see they re-worked their Reef display, Much more interesting aquascaping than what they had before (ie 2 yers ago). Looks like thet ditched the trusty RSB skimmer on it too Oh yeah, Ex hollywood staff working there as well. All this in a couple of years. I'm going to wait 4 years before I go in next, or i may invest in Yellow tangs, heck they're returning 25% per annum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetskisteve Posted September 26, 2004 Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 Andrew do a little reading of other "price" threads & you'll see its all down to shipping & quarantine obviously potters have gained weight since you last saw one :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AW Posted September 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 The prices weren't to bad, the funny thing i found is how they just swapped around, ie the cheaper fish back when are now expensive, the expensive now cheaper. Of course this a very broad statement based on 4 fish prices, make of it what you like, I personal had a laugh. It was a farily big Potter definetly a medium size bag would be required as opposed to a small one. However a little birdy (theirs a lot of them on this site, kinda funny considering) told me it was from the display tank. Probable die of old age as soon as someone buys it Anyway, apparantly dipping the net in one display tank, netting said fish, walking around the corner (with a new dry-method of quaratine which reduces the time down to 5 seconds, quite co-incedental the same time required to walk around the corner) and dump said fish into selling tank adds a lot of cost. More so than importing them in from overseas even :lol: But after all said and done, I'm a gambling man, I'm off to but a herd of yellow tangs and hopefully I'll make squillions in a few years time.
