Hi ,

Am not sure whether isit goin dwn. But i can notice that the price of smaller XB have gone dwn quite abit as compared to last year. Juz recently a bro come telling me that LCK fish farm XB with full pearlies and crossing 1 only 1.1-1.3k. No offense to that bro but i have doubt of the pricing as from what i know prices of premium XB is always relatively higher then this.

But also the variety of XB available for sales at LFS seems to have decreased. I can still rmb goin into c328 there will be tanks of aros inclusive of XB RTGs and Reds.

To me it seems that the demand for XB have dropped significantly as compared to last year.

Juz sharing my observations which may varies from people to people.

Cheers and regards

If this is true then it's a good news. I wanted to add more on my current comm of 4 elkindo reds.

Law of Supply and Demads plays its role bros.

This is very good price. Your friend should have sold some here. I'm sure many bros are interested.
