Yeah I paid less than half that for mine. But that was cheap. Depending on sex and size. and quality 350 is around about the high end of average pricing for these

Most breeders won't release them to just anyone. Breeders sell to breeders and mostly will stay that way until there's a decent amount back in the trade. I had to trade some very very special pikes to get hold of my first lot. And the second lot came from the same bloke as a favour. He had no room left and I wanted them so I bought them off him.

It's like diamonds, fair few around but controlled so that not many are available at once

exactly my point

but nonetheless they were going to b 700/800 last tym we were gonna get them
and then we got out bid basically
so for something u dont really see that often if not ever
(been in the aquatics trade nearly 5 yrs now and this is the first tym ive seen them)
i think its not too bad

You'd be better in the 250 region. If they were bigger then 350 would be fair. Just out of interest where did you get them?
