Purple Tang Cost

[SoulFish]

Whats the going rate for purple tangs out in the bay area? Over here, they are all $200+. I remember them being like $80-110 two years ago when I lived out that way.

Still the same $.

There was a jump in price for them a year or so ago, but a few stores didn't get the memo so it came back down.

Does anyone ship out to Florida? Our fish cost out here is like double but half the selection to choose from

 

[SoulFish]

Otherwise, I may need to fly out for the weekend and do some shopping then fly them all back as checked luggage

 

[euod]

Maybe you can send me Prognathodes guyanensis and Prognathodes aya, and I will send you a purple tang

 

[SoulFish]

I wish, but if they are around they'll be in Miami.. Close enough to drive too

 

[denzil]

Do you think they'll actually survive through checked luggage?

LOL wished that went the same for Zoanthids and Palys.

After their original shipping experience, checked luggage to Florida would be a breeze...

Solution, buy yellow tang, buy purple Sharpie

I got lucky and bought a very healthy one from a friend. Doing awesome now! GL finding one here or online. They are beautiful.

They would actually only have a 10hr transit time door to door as checked luggage on a direct flight.

I would pm Chris from aquatic central or joe and karson from aquatic collection. I know Chris ships fish sometimes.
