Just wondering what kind of experiences and info you guys have on them. I have opted out of getting a pond just for the fact that there is no water source in my basement and it would be hard to do water changes, but I am going to get a larger tank. Probably nothing over a 150 if I can ever find anything that size for a decent price. All the ones I see are either SW setups for a couple grand or way too far away. So the moral to this story is that this is one fish that I am going to get for sure when I get a larger tank. I have been eyeing them out at an LFS I go to for like the past 8 months now. Also what would be a good price for a 6-8" specimen (I think that is around the size)? Thank you in advance.

One of my lfs's had one about that size and was asking about $90. I thought about picking him up, but never did. One day I'd like to own one.
 
I think the ones at my LFS are only like $30 or $35. Although they may be a bit smaller than I remember too.
