I personally love the names, don't like how it raises the price but it sure sounds a lot better than just motoro.

You really think it is the name that raises the price.I would say its the quality of fish that raises the price.

Couldnt have said it better my self. Amazing marbles though. Did you raise them all from pups and hope for a good pattern or did u buy them old?

I have bought them smaller, about 12-15cm, i raise them up, now some about 30cm+. is difficult to get it at this size, will be much expensive.
 
I fully agree with you. Quality marbles are worth as much and in some cases more than low quality pearls. But its hard to find quality marbles.

The names actually mean something. It's been a joke around here for some time. Everyone kinda just jumped on the bandwagon, but it's been pointed out numerous times they actually reflect the quality and price. It's a LOT more than a name that dictates price. The quality of the animal dictates price, AND in turn name.

If someone says it's a Royal and its not is it the names fault or the person using it?

Raises the price? You get what you pay for. If you want to spend marble $ then don't expect a royal. The names help differentiate the $250 Marbles and the $400-$500 Royal Marbles..... And the ones above that don't matter cause we will never see them.

Maybe I'm misinterpreting it but that's how I see it..... :)
 
I especially love the ray in the 2nd to last pic. Looks like small pearl spotting in the center of its orange spots and I love the outlining of the black circles.
