If it is that is insane! I don't think so. Maybe it was 15$ they could have made a mistake.

I'm not necessarily suggesting you buy them here, I just wanted to show that their price is $30 plus $30 shipping; it would seem that $150 is just outrageously overpriced. Other online dealers had similar prices at $20-30 for these guys.

Good morning. I have 11 Bloody Parrot Cichlids. The most I have paid for any of them is $30 US. My Petco sells them for $25 now.
$150.00 is ridiculous. However, that could be the going price where you are located. It's hard to say. I'd hate to see you have to pay that much for it though.
