Re: Half black nickel size Angelfish for sale
My LFS is great. They get all their Angels from me and pay me the same as they pay the wholesaler for them. The reason I got overstocked with fish was that for a long while I was selling Angels to the wholesaler. They were buying a couple of hundred every 2 weeks so I was cranking them out. Then the guy they had been buying Angels from got his feelings hurt and thought that there was something wrong with his fish. The wholesaler cut way back on my fish and finally quit buying completely. I found myself left with an overflowing fish room. I understand and I'm not angry about it. It was a question of loyalty.
I cull a few fish every day now and feed them to my chickens in exchange for their eggs. My Rat Terrier likes to snack on an adult Angel from time to time, too.
I'm only breeding two strains now, and I'm being careful not to breed more than I think I can sell. I'm working with the half blacks and pearl scale sunsets and I'm selling on Aquabid, here, and another forum.

Just settled in a beautiful and healthy group of angels from Liz. Thank you for the extra. Great job packing and getting them here safe.
Re: Half black nickel size Angelfish for sale
Well that sort of sucks for you and the wheolsalers customer, sounds like they chose loyalty over quality!!!
You feed angelfish to your dog???? Am I reading that correctly?
Re: Half black nickel size Angelfish for sale
I'm glad they arrived safe and sound and that you're pleased.

I don't know anything about the other guy's fish. I'm sure that it they weren't pleased with the quality of them they wouldn't have been buying from him.
I don't actually feed the dog Angelfish. She will just help herself to one when I cull.

They are awesome fish Liz. Eating like pigs and begging for more.
Re: Half black nickel size Angelfish for sale
The way they eat is amazing. No matter how much food you throw them there is none left uneaten. I'm so glad they're doing well for you, Lucas.
Re: Half black nickel size Angelfish for sale
They have been getting the auto feeder three times a day on a pretty stingy setting. But 2 to 3 fa a day I’m down there and throw in some Discus Gold, flakes, FDBW, and they just never quit. I’ve been giving them 20% WC each day , sometimes more to keep up. I’m not sure if there is anything else I can do for them.
Re: Half black nickel size Angelfish for sale
Sounds to me like they have it made.

Very pretty tank and fish, Jacklyn. I have about 45 left. It won't be long until they start to pair off. I'd have preferred to sell them young but due to how unreliable shipping is when it's close to Christmas. FedEx would most likely get them delivered on time but Angelfish people won't pay for FedEX. Here are the ones I'll be offering for sale after the 1st of January.
