The 3 most expensive fish in the world, even money can’t buy, the price is equal to a luxury apartment

With the rarity of these fishes, sometimes money can’t even buy them.

The following 3 types of fish certainly cannot be bought by ordinary people, besides the rarity, the price is a big barrier.

1. Bluefin Tuna

In history, there was a bluefin tuna over 200kg, which was auctioned for up to 1.76 million dollars (about 39 billion dong). Normally, the price of ocean tuna is relatively high, especially the bluefin variety, it is also known as the “king of tuna”.

Bluefin tuna is often a luxury ingredient to make sashimi, sometimes even if you have money, it is difficult to enjoy this fish.

The reasons why this fish is so expensive is due to the following factors:

– Usually, bluefin tuna weighs at least a few dozen to several hundred kilograms.

– Large size makes catching difficult, in addition to weight, this fish swims very fast with an average speed of 60 – 80km/h.

– It grows in the deep sea, the bigger the fish, the longer it will live. The spawning requirements are extremely strict, so the number of fish is not much. Australia has tried short-term farming from 6-7 months, but the fish only weighs 20-60kg.

– High cost of transportation after catching. Because bluefin tuna lives in the deep sea, transporting it to the mainland in a fresh state requires a lot of equipment.

– Among the varieties of bluefin tuna are those that live in temperate and subarctic waters of the Southern Hemisphere, which have sweeter flesh than Pacific and Atlantic bluefin tuna.

2. Albino Sturgeon

Sturgeon can be raised artificially, so the average person can eat it. However, albino sturgeon is an exception, it belongs to a species of mutated sturgeon, large size, slow growth, usually only about less than 100 fish per year.

This fish has fish that need to be kept for at least 60 years to produce caviar. Therefore, it is also known as “platinum caviar”, priced at 40,000 euros/kg (nearly 1 billion dong).

Although it is so expensive, it is not possible to buy it with money because the quantity sold is very small and must be through orders.

3. Goldfish (Bahaba taipingensis)

This fish is often found in China, since ancient times considered a great food, specializing in tribute to kings. The most expensive part of the yellow fish is the fish’s bladder.

Legend has it that a person once caught a 120kg yellow catfish, which was sold for an exorbitant price of up to 3.34 million yuan (about 12 billion VND). This price is equivalent to 1 apartment in a first or second class city in China.
