Can I make Money Breeding basic Livebearers in the Fish Room ?

Can I breed for profit breeding basic species like platies, swordtails and guppies.
I have set a target of $2000 for the year to break even on the fish room running costs to see if firstly we can break even and then secondly try to turn a small profit along the way.
Thanks for watching Legends.

You can make money…. might not be enough money to cover costs, but you’ll definitely make money 😂😂😂

Yeah I have a few shops that will take some stuff, i can't actually breed enough but I have been in this situation with Reptiles before so bred more then they didn't want as many LOL

Nice upload Nick...Im just starting up again after many many years...just on a smaller scale than you..only 10 tanks...line bred endlers and guppies..shrimp..and Cory's...can I ask at how many months old you sell your Endler/Guppies and Cory's...

[@Fin2FinAquariums]

Hi Mate I have been going more in size, my local pet shop don't really take anything to small, the endlers I take the males in as soon as they are coloured up, the corys they like around 3cm, I haven't sold many guppies yet apart from a few coloured males that's had got to pretty much adult size, I have sold some smaller guppies privately in pairs and trios they were big enough to sex but only like juveniles.

[@SecoyaHomeAquatics065]

@@Fin2FinAquariums Yeah thanks for that...I found 3 smaller aquarium shops today that said they'd be interested in buying them...for around the same price as you mentioned in your video....the larger shops won't take them as they have wholesale deals with big fish farms...but interestingly one owner I spoke to said he'd prefer to buy off local breeders as the quality's is better...so we'll see how that goes....keep on posting when you're over covid..I had it pretty bad about a year ago..it sucks....... I like your tank setups and the fish you keep..👍

How long do you run the lights? The plants look great

[@Fin2FinAquariums]

I turn the lights on when I get up for work and feed around 7am I usually turn them off around 7pm so they generally run for 12 hours roughly per day

​@Fin2FinAquariums thanks, might be worth the boost to my tanks try it out for a week or so.

[@Александра_Смолярчук]

So fast jump movie😢

[@Fin2FinAquariums]

Yeah I was a little under the weather when I recorded this one, I'll do a nice room update this weekend and take my time so people can actually see what's in the tanks, thanks 😊

[@Александра_Смолярчук]

Спасибо😁👍

I might be interested in the El Silverado ones provided they're actually bright colored up. The ones at the local pet store were very drab looking. I breed Black Flame Endlers and what I call Sunburst Endlers which are an Endler hybrid that looks like a yellow tiger endler but I have some that are a deep orange and some that have both yellow and orange coloring. I'm going to be buying a trio of Black Moscow guppies soon. I plan to try to breed some wild types of bettas this year. I'm in Kansas.

[@Fin2FinAquariums]

Those endlers sound really nice, I haven't done much crossing yet more so just due to space issues but I am keen to try and make some of my own lines.

[@PureAndShrimple]

I'm finding the hobby pretty expensive on what I earn, so I've said I can only buy something that might breed from now on (unless it does a job, i.e. my Amanos and Ottos) I'm hoping to breed 3 or 4 types of Shrimp, Corys, Hillstream Loaches and my final purchase will probably be a live bearer such as a fancy Guppy. Also moss and snails. Anything for a bit of pocket money! It has to be fun though.

[@Fin2FinAquariums]

Yeah spot on mate, fun has to be first then try and cover cost for the bonus

[@PureAndShrimple]

@Fin2FinAquariums absolutely! Hope you borh feel better soon. I guess you don't realise how much work it is until you're not feeling up to it! I only have 6 tanks and that seems overwhelming on occasion!

[@-AndrewR]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@JamesJones-xh4hp]

1) are those tanks cheap? 2) where do u get them? 3) I'll take velvet sailfin swords. 4) Do u have a website?

[@Fin2FinAquariums]

No website as yet although I'm hopefully in the process of setting one up, the tanks I got in bulk, it was a set of 4 for 200 that got you 1x60cm 1x50cm 1x35cm and 1×25cm

[@footagemissing]

Where did you get those or what brand mate? ​@@Fin2FinAquariums
