I love angel Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Price have been increasing through the months and each shipment, take it as a guide, expect about +20% increase for some fishes, Also do not expect the minimum range side.....

SRC Member ml708 Posted October 4, 2014 SRC Member Share Posted October 4, 2014 I wonder if the prices are increasing due to the fish becoming increasingly rare. With better collection methods and greater availability they should actually sell for less imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member ml708 Posted October 4, 2014 SRC Member Share Posted October 4, 2014 Interesting that you would say it's become smaller. Are you referring to the period where many people were "nemo crazy"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solo77 Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Time to resurrect this thread. Find the pricing for livestock has gone rather unstable. To benefit reefers to gauge, let's try to contribute. Ultimately, still willing buyer willing seller. Wrasse Laboutei - $60-90 Hooded wrasse - a pair for $200 Clown Midnight clown - 35 to 40 Platinum clown - 70 to 88 Black ocellaris - 20 to 28 Frost bite - 120 - 160 Tangs Pacific Blue (Paracanthurus hepatus) ~ $15, size dependent Powder Blue (Acanthurus leucosternon)~ Smaller $15, Small - $30, Big - $35 Yellow (Zebrasoma flavescens) ~ Small $23 Medium $25 Big $30-40 Purple (Zebrasoma xanthurum) ~ $50-$80 Brown/Scopas (Zebrasoma scopas) ~ $8 ($5-small) Sohal (Acanthurus sohal) ~ $60-$80 Chevron (Ctenochaetus hawaiiensis) ~ $120 Clown (Acanthurus lineatus)~ $8 Convict (Acanthurus triostegus) ~ $8 Alantic Blue (Acanthurus coeruleus) ~ $80 Achilles (Acanthurus achilles) ~ $160-$250 depending on size Black (Zebrasoma rostratum) ~ $350 Gem (Zebrasoma gemmatum) ~ $2800-$3200 Orange Shoulder Tang / Mimic Tang - $6 - $10 Fowleri Tang ~ $50 (medium) Dwarf Angelfish Bicolor (Centropyge bicolor) ~ $6 - 12 Coral Beauty (Centropyge bispinosus) ~ $5-$8 for normal ones, $65-$100 for tiger tails Potter's (Centropyge potteri)~ $35-$40 Flame (Centropyge loricula) ~ $38 - $50 Argi (Centropyge argi) ~ $35-$50 Golden (Centropyge aurantius) ~ $40 - $80 Lemon Peel (Centropyge flavissima) ~ $35 - $45 Herald (Centropyge heraldi) ~ $8 Rusty (Centropyge ferrugata) ~ $6 Shepard's (Centropyge shepardi) ~ $80-$100 Joculator / Yellowhead (Centropyge joculator) ~ $380 - $550 Multibarred (Paracentropyge multifasciata) ~ $28 - $35 Multicolor ~ $130 Venustus (Centropyge venustus) ~ $38 - $60 Black Nox/ Midnight (Centropyge nox) ~ $8 Angelfish King (Holocanthus passer) ~ $200-$400 Queen (Holacanthus ciliaris) ~ $120 - $400 Blue Face (Pomacanthus [Euxiphipops] xanthometopon) ~ $45 - $60 Gold Face - $240 - $450 Bandit (Holacanthus arculatus))~ $600 - $1200 Emperor (Pomacanthus imperator)~ $40 - $60 up to $350 for XI emperors Regal (Pygoplites diacanthus) - $35-$60 depending on belly colour French (Pomacanthus paru)~ $80 - $200 Clarion (Holocanthus clarionensis) ~ $4000 to $5000 Scribbled (Chaetodontoplus duboulayi) ~ $80 - $250 Rock Beauty (Holocanthus tricolor) ~ $40 - $100 Personifer (Chaetodontoplus meridithi) ~ $120 - $200 True Personifer ~ $800 Africanus ~ $180 - $400 Grey ~ $80 - $200 Blue Line ~ $80 Blue Angel ~ $120 - $400 Ear Spot ~ $90 - $250 Flagfin ~ $15 - $28 Orange Peel ~ $38 - $60 White Bar Maculosus ~ $90 to $110 Majestic ~ $35 (small) Quote Tank : 4 X 2 X 2 with low iron front panel and external overflow Skimmer : BK SM200 with waste collector Return Pumps : Red Dragon 6m3 and Ehiem 1262 FR : 2 X Deltec 509 & powered by AB2000 Nitrate Filter : Deltec NF 509 and tee off from AB2000 Calcium R'tor : Deltec PF 501 with RM secondary chamber Kalkwasser R'tor : Deltec KM500 Chiller : Pansonic 1 HP Compressor with 20m titanium Coil Wave Makers : 4 X Tunze 6055 with 7096 & Vortec MP40w Controller : GHL Profilux Lighting : ATI Powermodule 10 or 8 tubes Water Top-up : Water Top-Up tank powered by Tunze Osmolator External Monitor : American Pinpoint pH and Temp.

SRC Member [V]tEc Posted June 8, 2015 SRC Member Share Posted June 8, 2015 Pricelist is super outdated as it was not updated for a long time. I dont think u can get black tang at $350 now. I bought mine 6yrs ago at ard $500. Now i think is ard $700 to $800? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solo77 Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Lol, no lfs name to be quoted. Is a guide where price used to be and now more expensive, still valid or turned cheaper. So need everyone to chip in. True about size, QT, region, etc do play a part and as mentioned, willing seller, willing buyer. This is very applicable to angel lovers but for certain fishes, not so. Nevertheless, This list will serve as a guide for reefer to gauge and assess the worth. Just find that nowadays, disparity can be almost doubled and just don't want some reefers to feel to be carrot head at times and let opportunist succeed. The list should be base on normal walk-in price as discount varies due to rapport level, boss mood, etc. lol. For example, laboutei used to be selling above 100 but now possible to own one below 90. Good news to reefers.

Should we update to support those lfses that are still making this hobby affordable or should we just let demand and supply do their part..... Just find the price can vary alot......take for example.

Solo77 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Not all, think certain fishes, price went down. wrasses like lineatus went down compared to the past. But in generally, most price went up. Operating cost all went up and hence explained the increased price. Each lfs has their own business plan and strategies, just thinking, to support those lfses that still adopting low business margin with high sale volume. Like clementi c328(always packed and crowded). However, this may not be happening to marine as farm setup is dimishing and once they moved, new place will have new rental pegged to market rate and initial setup cost. The market is adjusting and in around 2 yrs time, may not have farm setup. Mostly retail front and this hobby may soon be history to those general. Met few senior reefers and general feedback from them was the cost went up and hence killed their 'fire' to come back. The intent of the topic is to share info so newbies can consider and manage their expectation. However, this may backfire for not so updated lfses to increase price and worst ppl going ard to demand for same price. Maybe just let the demand and supply do the work.

But in generally, most price went up. Operating cost all went up and hence explained the increased price. Each lfs has their own business plan and strategies, just thinking, to support those lfses that still adopting low business margin with high sale volume. Like clementi c328(always packed and crowded). However, this may not be happening to marine as farm setup is dimishing and once they moved, new place will have new rental pegged to market rate and initial setup cost. The market is adjusting and in around 2 yrs time, may not have farm setup. Mostly retail front and this hobby may soon be history to those general. Met few senior reefers and general feedback from them was the cost went up and hence killed their 'fire' to come back.
