The clown trigger (white spots, yellow mouth) is like $69 if I get it from FFExpress.com, but if I get it at a fish store here its gona be like $90 for a 3.5" fish.  :-\
The Undulate Trigger (green) is like $15-$20 since he is so mean. The shark is like $125-$400. I doubt I get the shark though...since he grows to like 5 feet.

Its an expensive ass hobby.

Tru..
If you keep saltwater you have a choice. You could keep mean ass fish, or pussy ass fish.
Pussy Fish and tanks:

And then you could always keep corals and inverts:

Yea, my family got a 92 gallon tank with a balloon fish(porcupine puffer), a foxface rabbit fish, a batfish, a blue anglefish, a sailfin tang, a flamehawk fish, a wrassle, and a snowfalke eel

And my brother has a smaller tank with an octopus which is seriously fuckin amazing.  it changes colors and textures to camaflauge with the live rock. It is awesome. I think im gonna get my own small tank soon.

I'm also a scuba diver so im really into saltwater fish and shit.
You got some nice fish Noon, and those seahorses are tight. peace.

Thanks man.
I used to breed dwarf seahorses. They are like 2". They are a fuckin pain in the ass though. They need live brine shrimp to eat and shit. They are cool to watch but when you sit down and think about all the trouble you go through for damn seahorses its crazy.

I'd rather keep some mean ass fish and throw in a few peices of shrimp every hour.
Storm: Do you have any tank pics? It sounds impressive...specially that snowflake eel.
