Any indian species from a protected forest being exported is always gonna demand a very high price, as there is no legal export of this species, these fish are hand carried illegally and then sold at high prices.

Ahh damn i didnt know that. Ive seen a store have barca in stock for an really high price.

When I bought my first Barca, a pair used to cost 2000 - 3000 GBP.

An year ago they got really really cheap, almost 200 USD. I didn't have the space back then, else could've picked up one more.

Over here a pair is 5500GBP. And really hard to find.

5000gbp for a single specimen????
But then Sweden is very very far from India.

Speed lites such that only the front is illuminated, a small aperture, the fastest shutter speed.
