Why so expensive?

https://exoticfishshop.net/product/polypterus-delhezi-3/ Never heard of a "Royal Delhezi" I Dont see anything special about them other than great barring is this just another gimmicky trick to raise the price or is there something Im not seeing?

Yes. This one is gimmicky. They’re nice looking bands though. ‘Royal Tiger’ is another one.

 

[Krismo962]

Whatever it is ,I want one!

I think it’s like the name royal green terror. Same fish, just happens to be nicely colored so they call it something else and mark up the price.

There’s a reason I don’t like Steve and the main reason is stuff like that.

Here’s a nicer example of I believe the same variety. I’ve never really seen them available before.

Hm, quite interesting, I've never heard of this strain. Maybe it's just expensive because it has rare genes

Looks the same to me. Same personality as mine. Why get one when you can have the more wild-looking type.

Price of delhezi can be very various fallow their quality.
(in my country, they goes $4 ~ more than $ 1000 by their strain, quality)

That one seems very nice but still bit high price to me.
