Value of cichlids etc?

[toddy203]

Hi Guys,

I am looking to sell my fish soon as i am heading overseas but i have no idea what they are worth. Could you please private message me what you think these are worth - preferably for each fish ratehr than as a package as i will prob sell separately unless someone wants them all etc. I am not sure of all the sexes etc

My Fish:

3 x electric yellows - approx 6cm - 2 male & 1 female - i think

4 x tiger barbs - approx 4.5cm

1 x common pleco - approx 15-17cm

6 x silver dollars - approx 10cm

2 x jack dempseys - approx 9-10cm

2 x bristlenose catfish - approx 6cm - 1 male & 1 female i think

4 or five x Jewel cichlids - approx 8cm - a couple of each sex i think

sorry for being a bit vague on the sexes, some of them are very hard to tell!!

Thanks for your help!!!!

if anyone is in dunedin and is looking to buy cichlids in the near future feel free to drop us a message also.

I know you asked for a PM, but Ill say it here so you dont get every single person mentioning it to you.

Things are only worth what someone is willing to pay for them.

Basically if there is an abundance of Electric Yellows around then they are not really worth much unless they are of a particular quality.

Have a look at trade me and get an idea what people are asking and what people are bidding on.

Common Plecos and Bristlenoses for example can be hard to even give away.

Hope this helps. Not trying to put a damper on your plans but rather pointing out the common issues when selling anything.
