For those of you down under, how off the wall are these prices?

And are these even the type that get large? Are there perhaps cheaper suppliers that are just not as easy to find on the Net?

They look expensive to me, especially as at the moment there are a lot of Marron Farmers selling off all their Blue Marron as the export market for them has crashed and the local aquarium market is very small.
As far as size goes Marron have been known to reach weights of up to 4lbs, however I have never seen or been able to grow them any bigger than about 2lb.
Have sent PM with details of where to get some cheap ones from though they may not sent to US.
