You dont see them that often because most people either kill them or give them away when they get over 4-5 inches and start killing off larger slower fish like oscars. I sold an 11 inch CAE for about $50.00 to my lfs.

They will also not grow as big because most are stunted...... Very few keep them in tanks large enough for them to live in.
