Leptodactylus laticeps

unfortunately, pricing of the more rare species isn't limited to phibs, as i'm sure you know from your cichlid. a buddy of mine who breeds high end discus just recently acquired a breeding pair for $2400 and paid $1600 for a pair of freshwater shrimp that were only 8mm long. the prices breeders set is astonishing sometimes. but you are correct, you can recoup your investment on the first sale or two, if you can find someone willing to pay the price.
i wonder if at $1500 for a breeding pair comes with a live arrival guarantee? it better!! lol

Too bad people actually buy threatened animals that are wild caught... I know for a species to be availible CB they first need to be imported as WC but that shouldn't be allowed for anyone and especially not with endangered species. That's what I think at least.

Gorgeous frog though!
