| Fast Facts | LOWEST PRICE WE'VE EVER HAD! Only months ago these were over $1000! Get one while the price is low! To say Rhinopias are rare and popular is an understatement. Be prepared for a wait and to jump on them immediately when available! The Holy Grail of the Scorpionfish clan, the Rhinopias are as spectacular as they are expensive. Seldom collected and much in demand, be sure to grab them fast when available. The image shown is an example, colors will vary but they're generally in red, purple, orangish hues. They're all awesome! Non-aggressive, but they can swallow fishes nearly as large as they are! Don't house with curious fishes such as triggers or larger wrasses or angels, as these type fishes will likely pick at your Rhinopias as they would a sponge. |
