Fish can run into the thousands of dollars. Try starting with something affordable if it is your first try at it!!! I made some bad expensive choices in my start up and learned a lesson. Exotic doesn't mean it has to be expensive. Try a ghost fish, a red tailed shark, or like I found, an albino algae eater. GOOD LUCK!!!!

A Garr is one of the freakyist fish I can think of. I use to have piranha...strange little fish and agressive when you have several like I did. Oh another great fish is an Arowana, you don't see them very often.

Some strains of Asian Arowanas (Scleropages formosus) are priced up to $50000. They are CITES animals and completely prohibited for import into the USA, even if they were bred legally.Some wild collected discus can be extremely expensive too. But if you mean something bilogically exotic, look at the blind fishes, they are discovered among characins, cichlids, gobies, so on. In the USA there catfish Satan eurystomus, living in arthesian wells. Some other blind fishes live in caves. However all these fishes are not sold in the local shops.If you want something more easily to obtain, you can try with electric knives, Borneo suckers, freshwater glass eels, hatchetfishes, daemon cichlids, so on. All they are real weirds
