I took this pic at a local pet shop today on Long Island no price but said to be around 2-3K... Some Info and pic below..
An extremely rare specimen caught by either deep mixed gas divers or submersible. It lives at depths in excess of 300’ and is found on small areas of coral rubble on sandy plateaus adjacent to steep coral reef walls.
Evides is a shy and cryptic species. It is often found in pairs or small, same-species groups of 3-5 individuals. It is distinguished by three dark bands, hence the common name. This is a very sensitive fish that requires skilled care. As is the case with almost all deepwater fishes, they prefer a cool tank temperature; 65-70°F (18-20°C) is recommended.
