contact julie at flowernsfrombeyond.com she has red texas juvies for $30. Don't know if they are faded or not though.

I'm sure they are expensive to produce, lots of selective breeding, but I personally would not spend more than $100 on a fish. I'm fairly new to fishkeeping, so its very possible I could kill it as well.
I'm not interested in the ones with the big nuchal hump either, looks kind of look an evil genius, perhaps plotting to escape the aquarium and take over my apartment.
This one is beautiful, but $650. Plus shipping.
Really cool, too. $330.
So can anyone recommend a way to get a nice looking red texas at a lower cost? I've seen some small ones for sale for a reasonable price. Like Tropical Fish Distributors sometimes has them at <$10 each, very small. If I buy a bunch of those is it possible I could get one or two nice ones like the above? If not any other ideas?
OMFG THE @ND ! IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO KILLER 330? IF I HAD THE CASH I WOULD SOOOOOOO BUY THAT!!!!!!!!!!

Bought these two!! Really excited. Anyone know anything about keeping these guys?
Nice SRTs!
I can't wait to see them in the tank.I think so! Shipping was still $$$. Know anything about keeping them? Are they like flowerhorns for care?
