Ghaz Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 exactly what i was thinking, a bit much for what looks like a overglorified spotted guppy. But dont see them often so could well be worth it if people are willing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr A Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 These things seem to be basically impossible to get a hold of at reasonable prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 Good grief they are only leopardfish. Certainly not worth anything like that But if they can find someone willing to pay that then good luck to them. Caveat emptor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zayne Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 if you read the auction it says it listed two by mistake and he has another auction for $45 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godly3vil Posted December 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 "Others have sold teenage Leopard Fish Pair for $150 and $151 per pair on trade me. I think mine are as big if not biger " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livebearer_breeder Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 The value of the fish is often up to the buyer. These are auctions, no ones being forced to bid, i have been watching this guy for a while and i don't think he's sold any. When i was 13 i sold them to the pet store for $1.50 ea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxim_nz Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 If you go to orakei korako on the waikato, go approx 400m north on the river in a small kayak/canoe you can basically go help yourself to some livebearers like these with a decent net.. pretty sure these are the same livebearer as the ones living in the wild... Anyone else verify? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else verify? I believe that they are guppies there (going from NIWA's Freshwater Biodiversity DB it looks like they are guppies) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disgustipated Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 his new auction is $40 buy now for six of them. $6.66 per fish isn't that bad for what will probably be a breeding group, you'll end up with hundreds of the darn things anyway..

F15hguy Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 lol I am planning on selling mine in a retail shop at $5 each (just need a lil bit more size) and I thought I was asking too much (I also have a funny feeling that they may be a few of my earlier babies) oh btw breeding trio of Leopard fish for sale $150 firm any takers?????
