hi how is this fish 35 each and on the site its 65 did the price go up or is it a mistake also do people stock these in golf course fresh water ponds or to have at home in a tank curious I heard my friend say he has a secret lake stocked with these type of snooks

J jeff_fishingfun , the price was $35 in 2018 when this thread was posted so yes there has been a price increase.

kno4te kno4te bought some a few years ago for his tank.

They are In Florida too. Seem to be in brackish waters. Had a few but lost them. Got some from seagrest and from aquascape. Want to get them again. Currently not available on the aquascape website. If it’s $65 then that’s a good deal. Went for more years ago. Really cool fish.
