Wow prices have gone up at gawb from about $5 each to $50 each... I wonder if they are spawning jacks this year?
Ive sent an email to 'em, will post response.

Article says first time in NSW. They are a bear for broodstock and on the more difficult side of larval culture. Feels good when you get some through though. Adam
