i am a time interested in platinum poly's so wahts the cheapest species,en how much do you pay for such a poly?
 
probably P.senegalus expect to pay $200-500 usd
 
I agree with senagalus, but they're really that expensive? Albino sb's go for around 40$, wouldn't think plats are much more.

So how many Plats have you seen in person? Leucism is a less common mutation so there for there are a lot less of them available. Albinos are fairly common and it has been theorized that sb is a side mutation of the breeding process. Infinite had them last year for $175 and that is the cheapest that I have seen.

Then again you never know last year Ansorgii and Teugelsi were extremely expensive and now are more reasonable.

It was $175 for 3" then price went up to $220 when it was 5". I know because I bought one from him.

To be honest with you, only people on MFK know what is a Platinum fish. I talked to people at the fish store and nobody knows what I am talking about until they see this picture.

Now they come in batch, won't be too hard to find them in the near future. The price will be lowered as well. There's also "platinum" delhezi in the market (the price is not revealed). Also, white endlicheri was imported to Taiwan, the price was still very high

lian bought a plat endli?
 
platinum senegal would be the cheapist expect to pay s good amount $150 would be a great price but can be up to $500
 
woohoo lookin forward to cheap plat sens!! :D

There is also plat ornates out there, but I havent' seen one that was all white, the ones I've seen still had a lot of black pigment, so I guess it's 'piebald' ornates rather than true 'platinum'

The importer wants to keep it in their showroom, besides the price is 6 digits TWD, guess not much people can afford that.
