Haha I missed this one,guess I am still a little sleepy.And by "the price is to" your liking..
You won't want one anymore at that point. Cause it'll be cheap because it's everywhere, which ruins the point for alot of people, and if you don't want one bad enough you're seeking one out now. Then.. It'll legit be mainstream at a fish store before "the price is to your liking". Which means it's cool at that point, but not as cool as someone who spent a car to buy one early.
Cheat sheet. You can buy a albino channel cat. Looks pretty similar in the face. Eats everything. Gets big. Is like $10.
Yes,"if the price is to my liking" that is the determining factor when I purchase a fish,heck it should be everybody's but I'm talking about me.If I wasn't clear enough in my other post I said I wanted a RTC not an albino channel cat....a white one and I used the term "white" because none of those morphs or grades or levels or whatever mean anything to me...but it sure would be great if I found one for ten bucks LMAO!
.....and another thing,I don't and never have bought fish because they were perceived by others to be "cool" at a particular time.It's all about what is cool to me.
