Good price for electric blue chiclid?

My local petco has one in their assorted cichlids tank for like 9 bucks, good deal? It's probably about two inches

I wouldn't say good deal but average for a lfs.

Unless you have a reputable breeder, it would be hard to find under 7$

Sometimes, fish are overpriced because of how they treat them. Like using quality products, or they just want to make extra money.

At the lfs here they make them 20-25 if they are 4"+. The smaller they are normally the cheaper they are here.
