Palmas price worth it?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Okay.....sooooo yes, no or??? ;)

P.S. I would pass on this guy. Though laps don't tend to get very large he's also not showing much in the pattern department but he could be washed out due to shipping and white sand. It just depends on how important that $60 is to you.
 
Makes me think of that episode of Big Bang where Sheldon was gonna test his ability on a mine and says to test it he'd google "dark moist & wet" LOL

that reminds me of this video where the dad wants to paint the garage so he wanted to find out if latex would bond to stucco so he was going to search for latex bondage

Also polypterus polli(sometimes retropinnis mixed in the batch) are often sold as congicus. :eek:

thats like selling a cat as a dog since they are both mammals

$1999 here wtf. Thought of you guys when I saw this just now. J jaws7777 fancy a couple:)

yeah even platinums of the most common bichirs are stupid expensive so $2k doesn't sound like to far off the mark for a much less common species]. Does that mean I would pay that no it doesn't
 
Money/price is all relative. If your in an area that doesnt get a certain fish often then its going to cost more $$$ than other places + plus if you like the fish or have been trying to find it for a while then any price is worth it.

I actually like that lap. Its on crappy substrate and looks like the pic was taken with flash which always distorts colors if the lighting is off
 
S Steve_C - Here's what a washed out lapradei would look like at first. Attached a GIF file. Click the image and that small lap should move, lol. Consider it a Poor Mans PBB (Nile Bichir)
