LYNDYLOO Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Hi Guys and Girls I've been on the lookout for some Dem's for sometime now and not having much luck untill now I have no idea if these are worth what the guy is asking for them, But I'm very tempted, he is shutting down his 550Ltr and going with Marine Fish instead. Here's the link : http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing ... =505460212 Any thoughts on price would be great Just a thought, I may be happy to split the colony if anyone is interested in the other half of it, not sure I have room for all of them as I have some fish on the way.

F15hguy Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 imo $200 is about right, I wouldn't go much past $250, also I would ask if he bought them all or are any spawned in his tank as it looks like a mixed tank to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LYNDYLOO Posted August 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Yes, it is a mixed tank, I do have a spare tank I can pop the fry into if I need to strip the mum. Thanks for your answer, I thought $200 was reasonable, I got a price from animates the other day, man $65 for one Dem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix44 Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Juviniles shouldn't sell for more than $5 each. It's criminal to sell them for more given they breed like rats. When I had my babies they were breeding in a few months! Also better off with Juvis so they can form their own colony, but not so much of an issue if they are going into a new tank, but there will be some scraps.

ryanjury Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 Price is about right for adults, would want to know exact numbers and sexes first, would also need a descent sized 4ft min probably bigger and I wouldn't thin any out, maybe a few males depending on male/female ratio but probably not a good idea with those smaller numbers..

About $5 for the lot. They're africans... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
