So I got sent to Hong Kong on a four year job assignment last year, I've settled in pretty well and am glad to find out that all the fish are VERY cheap here and the variety of fish available is quite astounding. Anyway, I went to the fish street today (yeah, not a fish store but a fish street, I'm spoiled for choice), and saw this bad boy (see attachment) in one of the shops going for HK$30k, which is around $4000 in greenbacks. That's just mind-blowingly expensive, considering I stocked my whole 30G tank for less than $8 (8 neon tetras, 8 glofish, 2 neon blue dwarf gouramis and 6 albino cory cats).
What kinda fish is this, and why are they so expensive? Maybe I should start breeding them so I can quit my day job.
