I'm sure someone will pay. Look at the hobby we are in Money is not an object to some people. Plus, depending on where you are in the US, you will never see one like that in an LFS. And ordering blindly without pics isn't so great sometimes. Personally I know you can get them cheaper, but they might not look as nice, be the same size, etc.........etc..........etc..............People pay way more than that for fish that have half the personality right?
