At what size is good to sell of your fry?

[thang45]

I have 49 fry around 1.5". When you you guys think it is good to sell them?

And how much should I aim for each?

Price would heavily depend on what type of discus they came from. Some strains are alot more expensive than others. HTH

I would not sell unless they are at least 2 - 2.5".

Price really depends on alot of things. So it's up to you. ;)

OK, I will wait for when they are at lest 2 to 2.5"

I was thinking of $5 to max of $10 a piece.

Is $10 a piece too high?

Post pics. The price is based on the quality shape, size and strain.
Sell when they reach 2.5".

Your fish look very nice. Shows your taking care of them and they come from good stock. :):):)

I feel, especially for a hobbyist, that selling fry as soon as you can makes the most sense. Less maintainance, and food for you to provide. IMO your fish are plenty large enough to sell now. They appear to be Turqs, so $5 a tail is a reasonable price

Thanks Riche.

I try really hard to grow them big and make them healthy. This is my first batch and so far I had a lot of fun. I’m currently working on my second pair Giant Leopard Snakeskin (GLS). Luckily they first time and they got 43 fry how cool is that!

I think they fry will be very nice. I will post some pictures of the fry when they are at 2 months old.

The fry above came from Maze and violet refection that I got from Wayne discus. The fry are about 1.5” – 2”. I want to keep them all but I know that is not possible.

If anyone from Toronto area wanted fry then please pm me.
