Best Fish Deal

[dacox]

I went to the LFS earlier tonight and got a good deal on a dat. I'd never ever seen them carry any before, but tonight they had one, and I picked it up for $7.99 (probably the best deal I've gotten on any fish so far).

That got me thinking though, what's the best fish deal you all have gotten?

I think it's a silver dat (Datnioides quadrifasciatus). I got it from a store in Champaign. I got some pics in the Photo Lounge of him still in the bag. I'm gonna try to get some more pics now that he's in the tank.

It's called Sailfin Petshop. It's a great petshop. Really great selection and great staff. They know their stuff too, so I was suprised at getting this deal. They don't come around often here. They don't have tons of tanks but keep a pretty good stock of specialty fish, so if you're in the area I'd say check it out, if not, I wouldn't make a long trip to come out here.
