I will disclose this- At my LFS damsels were 99 cents and I paid 46 cents in quantity of 12 or more.The cost for damsels and chromis is stupid high now. I'm old school enough to have used them to cycle a tank @ start up since they cost so little as you said four for 5$ was the deal that couldn't be beat. I just saw at my local LFS generic blue & yellow tail damsels @ 8.99 a pop as of a few weeks ago. Saw a poor guy buying a bunch of them and I calmly told him as hes paying for them that they are like 10 little indians, you'll end up with one. Sad part is that he didn't understand or that those little devils will just kill each other off.
An lfs in my area is charging $19.99 for a blue/green chromis- Those back then were $1.69 and even 5 years ago were $4.99
