I once saw them at a LFS at 4" for about $79. Great price for a fish store.

thats an amazing price...are you sure it wasnt a hybrid or cheap(low quality) stock or something
 
I've never paid over $200 for one but I also live in Utah where are our market is bread and butter. So the fish usually sits there for 6 - 12 months before I go in and make an offer. First one I bought was 6" at $125 second was 9" at $175 and my third was 10" at $150
 
Dont forget to post pics when you get it and appriliarider,did you or do you keep those 3 together?

Not a hybrid for sure. I had a tig at that size and I grew it to 9". Is there such a thing as a low quality tig?

The LFS had 4 and one guy came in and bought them all.

I do all three in a 150 growout. When I added the second one they fought for about 2 months. They didn't do much damage other than ripped streamers. I thought about spliting them up but never then one day they finally got used to each other. The third was a little punk as well for about a week well four days but the others put it in it's place. Now all three live happily together. I have hopes to possibly be the first to breed them in captivity.
