how rare are longfin albino oscars?

[Prometheus]

the title pretty much says it all. i found one today and i just wondered how rare they are and how much they should cost on average. thanks

I have only seen them in one of my local stores, he had 3 one week, and none when I came back.

The owner only wated like a $5 premium over the regular albino's, like $19.99. These were ~3"

I agree, not common around here. Often upwards of $20.00, saw one for $25.00 in the International District if I recall correctly.

huh, thanks. you know i completely didnt check the price when i was at petco. if i make it back over there ill have to check and see if they just want the standard price.

Pretty common IMHO but still a great fish....

I agree, pretty common where im from. Also the same price as any other Oscar.

They've become more rare because I've been rounding them up and putting them out of their misery. What an UGLY fish.
