Peppermint Angelfish – Candy for the Eyes
The Peppermint Angelfish is a tiny yet expensive gem of the ocean, often selling for $30,000. Its striking red and white stripes make it look like a piece of living candy. Imagine telling your kids the fish tank doubles as a candy shop, just without the sugar rush. This little fish can bring a burst of color and joy to any home aquarium, making it a delightful spectacle.
Collectible Value
This fish’s high price is due to its rarity and the difficulty in capturing it from deep reef environments. It’s a collector’s dream, akin to finding a rare stamp or coin. For the cost of this fish, you could enjoy a first-class trip to Paris. But then, Paris doesn’t have a Peppermint Angelfish in the Seine, does it? It’s a unique treasure that’s hard to pass up, a true gem of the sea.
