I think the dr seuss soapfish is like 6,000 dollars. Cool fish.

That's a cool fish. I would spend my money on the mandarin fish or black tang.

They actually sell those?! Wow, I'd think they would not make it through shipping or survive in a tank that isn't used for scientific purposes..like public aquariums.

Pretty sure your right. You need to be a large public aquarium or have permits for biologists to aquire them.
