My LFS only had a single pair of them in, and they were $9.99 for a single pair. That seems kind of expensive, especially since I want to breed them for feeders lol.

I thought they were like $2/3 each lol
 
Yeah guppies around my area are within the $2-$4 range.
 
Two a Penny round here.

Steve.
 
If I plan on letting them breed for feeding to larger fish.

Is it worth it to spend extra to get the fancy vs feeder?
(planned like 3 female 2 male)
 
The only problem with feeder guppies are that they usually aren't taken care of very well because they are feeders. It's more of a general statement and may not pertain to your lfs at all...but I'd rather not spend the extra money on fancy if the fry are going to be fish food anyways. Unless you plan on setting up a nice tank for the parents that will be viewable...than fancies might be a better sight...it's up to you...
