I just found these at a fish shop for a great price. But I am not sure what L number they are. I will try and get some better pictures.<br><br>Image

I got them for less than that. I got them in canada for around $78 for all 4, and that was CANADIAN!

Hi!

Yes it seems to be a L81 could also be a possibility!!

Cheers

I agree with L18/81. It is said to be the same species.

That's a ridiculous price for golden nuggets :?

lemonlimecola, I'm sorry to hear that they charge such a ridiculous price for those out there. Here they run about $25 for a 1-2 incher. But maybe that's just the luck of being near L.A., as I hear it's a major fish hub.

my lfs sells them for around $50 each. I think that might even be too much.

Curious as to where you have seen them at that price....I live in the area and have been to pretty much every fish/pet store in the DC/VA/MD area....and have never seen them sold at such a high price. Average is $40, you see them for anywher from $20-$50, sometimes more for size. For anyone to sell them at $100+, they would have to be adults, or no one would ever purchase them...Are you sure you aren't thinking of goldies?
