mbunamad Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 Yes back in the day they might have been 50 cents. How much was power, water, etc back then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan486 Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 Go and see your lfs...not a chain store. Should be able to get them for a few bucks each. I use to get them for $1.50 from a store up here. Sent from my GT-N7105T using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delapool Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I've paid that as well. Gram for $ it has to be an expensive fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pony-tail Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I have 40 odd young adult neons - but I would not consider selling for less than $3 a fish . They cost as much to keep and raise as a Rainbow or blue eye that I can sell for $6 - $20 . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pony-tail Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 These are the ones . Unsure of the exact quantity but 50 went in - the rainbows chomped a few when they first went in as some were quite small , all grown up now . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aquaholic99 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 They aren't hard to spawn but can be tricky to raise. If you can raise rainbow fry in numbers then you won't have any issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slipshodman Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 Picked up 30 for $1 each on the weekend at a shop in Kingswood NSW.... Bit of a trek for you guys in QLD (only 1000 klms or so ) but for the price difference at $7 each maybe its worth it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
