We are friends ..... but the joculator will make you my best friend :)

By the way, are C.interruptus expensive in Japan?

Thank you, LEN.

Yes, C. interrupta is expensive, both adult and young. Adult costs at least $150-200,- and young to juvenile $200-250,-.

It is a 4cm long Centropyge bispinosa from Vanuatu. pale body with purplish blue fins.

$200...wow fascinating. There's a website here in the US that wants $1400 for an interruptus. :) A Joculator, for example, usuallly goes for around $800 and up.

How much are some of the other rare angelfish in Japan?

Len,
It is too cheap for interrupta !

I saw several specimens of Holacanthus africanus, 2- 4cm some years ago, but now it is scarce in Japanese market, and it costs some $ 1200-1500.
