So I've basically been raising fry since I started keeping fish. My first batch is close to sale size. I'm wondering if any of you make substantial money in the hobby? I'm not talking enough to live on but maybe 100 or more a month maybe?
What did it take to get to that level? I want to breed blue angels which seem to be worth money but my only shot at selling them is online (my LFS won't take them because they think no one will pay a bit more for them) not to mention many others already do and I'd like to get to a level where It's less a labor of love and more a labor that produces fruit.
I also really want to breed salt fish when I get my salt stuff going but I'm a long way away from that. Anyway I'm just wondering if you make money do you have a specialized fish? Sell in bulk with cheaper stuff? Did it take a huge room full of tanks?
Just thought it would be an interesting discussion as I'm sure a lot of hobbyists would like some extra money to invest back into the hobby
