How much would you be willing to spend on a single fish?? I want to know what your personal limits are. Doesnt have to be an exact amount or you dont even have to mention an amount.. say 1/4 of my salary , an amount that would not send my wife packing or something like that...

LOL LOL I hear ya Rocky!
I usually only buy fry or small fish, I love to grow my fish out! So I would say no more then $50.
it all depends on how much spending money I have....
couple weeks ago, I spent $37 on 6 exodons, to use as feeders for my $3 cichlids. Two are still left lol, but they're so shy and terrified I think they might die of stress/starvation if my malawis dont decide to finish them off first.
I'm just a college student though with a part time job, its not like im rolling in cash.
When I get outta college and get a real job, my money will be going towards big BIG tanks (goal is 1 or 2 15-foot-long-tanks) and stock them with cheap fish that are fun to watch-- cichlids, centrarchids and snakeheads.
Asian arrows are lovely to look at, but I'd never buy them for the prices they go at-- I'd rather pick up a couple 240g setups instead. I don't care for rays or flowerhorns or other ugly inbred short-bodied fish freaks.
