hello,

I have a bunch of angelfish that I am going to sell in about a week, a I wanted to know what is the average price are for baby angelfish.

I have pea, dime, nickel, and quarter plus sizes.

Strains are koi, smokey leopard, gold, silver, black lace, panda, dark marble, and blusher.

I am going to sale 25 assorted angels per box all sizes with different strains. ( i have alot of nickel, and quarter size) How much should i charge per box of angelfish?

I normally sell them sep. for 4.25 each for the quarter plus, 4.00 for the nickel, 3.75 for the dime, a 3.50 for the pea size.

Is $85 a box a good price for 25 angelfish?

Please feedback is welcome!! thanks

Let me know how much you think I should sell each box for?
 
Yeah it sounds like a great price, I'm just not sure how many people would want to buy 25 angels at once.

You are very right about many people may not want that many. I will let people purchase them in smaller up to larger amounts.

( still assorted strains and sizes!!)

5 angelfish a box

10 angelfish a box

15 angelfish a box

20 angelfish a box

25 angelfish a box.

Shipping for 5-15 angelfish is only 9.80, and 20-25 will be only 13. These are the flat rate prices.

I hope a fish hatchery or a business will want to buy all of them from me!! Thanks for your comments.

About the LFS here, I have tried many different fish stores but they will not take them because they said it is against their policy, and that they do not give store credit!!
 
I don't know where you are from, but shops are not going to buy at those prices. Around Chicago, meaning Indiana & Wisconsin, you will see $1 to $1.50 for dimes & nickels, maybe $2 for quarters. No shop I know of buys peas.

You can buy them cheaper at auctions, shops as well as individuals do. Many folks will make a little money at auctions buying fish cheap, selling for a small profit to shops. I've seen plenty of bags with three dime to nickel size angels go for $2.
 
Will you post pics of them?
 
yes, post pics,
BTW, some color strains will bring more than others.. common colors like marble not so much.
I find that F1 wild strains (Scalare) will generally net you more..

if anyone ever got the Altum breeding down they would do quite well ;)
