I was just wondering what the value of a 22"-23" armatus would be worth?

I have seen small 5" for around $100 just wondering what a massive monster one is worth?

The price really depends on the area and what's available. The challenge would be to move it without killing it. My friend gave an ATF to a public aquarium and they had to drug the fish before moving it. That means the water in the whole tank needs to be changed afterward.

The value of an Armatus that size will be in between of how much a seller want to get for it and how much a buyer want to pay for it.. I got a 24in recently practically for FREE!! I just have to buy the rest of that person's collection.

Agreed and also, armatus are not the hard to come by fish that they were a few years ago and their prices have gone down some....But then again, monsters in that size range are.
