I payed $5.99 for my 4" clowns from petco, but that's the cheapest i have ever seen them.

I also saw 1" clowns for $14.99.

I have seen 2-3" clowns for sale at Petsmart for $8.99. At the aquarium that I frequent they were selling clowns that were an inch or slightly smaller for $3.99. They also had clowns that were 3-4" for $12.99 a piece. I guess this is due to how fragile they are in the younger stages.

My Petsmart was selling them for $10 when I got three, then they upped the price to $19 (and these are little small guys, not even 2 inches yet). Been that price for a while, but a month ago they put it back to $10.

I don't remember what I paid for mine but I had 3 that were about 3 in & 1 that was about 4 inches & my LFS gave me $50 credit for all 4.

I hadn't done my homework & didn't know how big they can get. I was shocked to find out they have a lifespan of 50 years!! They would out live me! Needless to say, lesson learned for me - Research, Research, research.

As of Saturday a small clown loach just down the road from my house was observed to be priced at $12.99 US. Way overpriced! My husband mentioned that it was cheaper at Petsmart. Not sure their price though.
