KrazyGeoff Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 I think there are two "blue eyes", P. suttonorum and P. cochliodon (not the one we see here under that name), maybe it was a combo of both factors? That is correct, the hump on the forehead is more pronounced in one of them. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reptilez Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 It's amazing how the price of fish can drop so quickly, the same thing happened with leopard geckos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boban_nz Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 It's amazing how the price of fish can drop so quickly, the same thing happened with leopard geckos The opposite way round too :slfg: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrazyGeoff Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 The opposite way round too :slfg: Still be hard pressed to sell them here for that. If they worth $2.50 in the shops, then should be able to buy them for $0.10 Still, by November 2017 they will most likely be pretty close to extinct.

We all know the market price of Zebra pleco today. The example shows how prices of some fish has skyrocketed in recent years and it is opposite of "drop so quickly" as reptilez mentioned.

The example shows how prices of some fish has skyrocketed in recent years and it is opposite of "drop so quickly" as reptilez mentioned. I think that I will just stay a bit confused. The small print at the bottom of the image implies that the image is taken off a website catalog for Lee'sPets.com and is for a weekly special for the week 2 November 2017 in the category of catfish. Which does not help your point that the price of some fish has skyrocketed in recent years. It is correct though that some prices go up, and some come down. Cheers.

KrazyGeoff Posted April 1, 2013 Report Share Posted April 1, 2013 I just scanned older issues of TFH Magazine. They must have been having a joke or something? Zebs have never been that cheep, even in the good ole USA :bggrn: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boban_nz Posted April 1, 2013 Report Share Posted April 1, 2013 The price may look a bit odd but i do remember that the price was very good here in NZ, about NZ $60 and was equal to the Gold Nugget pleco. With no quarintine and big freight expenses the advertised price is very likely if they had a huge quantity of fish in stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrazyGeoff Posted April 1, 2013 Report Share Posted April 1, 2013 I can believe that. The modern costs to get fish to our islands are quite disturbing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
