Bichir Pricing World Wide?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
what i've seen here so far (all CB, i think):

3" endli - $35
2.5" Albino sen - $20
2" del - $25
2" sen (Petsmart) - $7
5" sen - $20
4" long fin sen - $30
4" ornate - $40
8" ornate - $70
10" ornate - $100

sens grow so fast and they all look very similar so it's usually only worth buying a Petsmart one. mine has gone from a short skinny Petsmart one to a pretty fat 5"er in a month, maybe a little more

Here in the uk


P.senegalus 6" £25
P.ornatipinnis 8" £35
P.endli endli 12" £70
P.weeksi 6" £25 - £30
P.delhezi 5" £30
P.lapradei 8" £60ish rare as hell here though
P.ornate 9" £40ish

i got my sens for £4 each at 4" there where some in the batch at around 2". the feller in the petshop said he could get most of the other species (not sure what ones)at around the same size, for around £20. he tends not to stock them as they dont sell as well, due to the bigger price, when compared to other prettier fish (not his words, other customers). but if i want them when i gets me new tank...

Holy crap how come fish are so expensive in Australia

The import laws here are extremely strict! the authorities are overly concerned with preserving our water ways...( which is good for evryone...except exotic fish keepers...haha )

And alot of this stuff gets illegally imported, changing many hands before it reaches our tanks...each hand wacking an extra few $$ here and there, before you know it, a $20 endli from singapore ends up costing me $500 here in Oz...

I have tried to cut out as many middle men as i can, but still...the cheapest i have paid for an endli is around $350...and thats cheap here! Haha...:irked:
 
Wow, some of these prices are crazy, but it's all understandable.

I need to move to SGP! :D :headbang2 I'd have the siiickest tanks! Whatever happened to that guy with the melanistic senegalus? Wasn't he from SGP?
 
Honestly Australia sucks for fish keeping.
