Ancistrus dolichopterus and Glyptoperichthys gibbiceps are around $25-40 for juveniles. Depends on wether you buy them from a shop or breeder etc.
Hypancistrus zebra and Leporacanthicus cf. galaxias will be $500 minimum, and probably much higher.
I have never seen or heard of a "Tiger Anupu pleco" but if its rare, or hard to breed, or (as is the case with Loricariidae in Oz) illegally imported its likely to be expensive.

Wow you guys in Australia really get hammered for pricing. Here in the US we're getting about $35 for a 3" L7. Is your high pricing due to the import restrictions? It seems like some money could be had there in breeding the more exotic L numbers! Anyway cheers!
