I have a pair of breeding angels that im looking to sell because im changing my tank. The male is about 5" tall and a marble and wild caught. THe female is about 3" tall and is a white angel with orange spot on her face and captive breed. THe have had 3 sucesfull breeds and have never eaten the fry. Never kept the fry though so dont know how they look. I have been told however that this is one of the more saught after breeding pairs. Any help would be aprecieated.
 
I looked online and breeders were selling these same exact species breeding for $175. What you think about that?

I have never heard of a Marble Angel from the wild....they are all normally striped, sometimes with tiny spotting.....but never Marble.
Pics would help give you a better idea on pricing.
 
O i told that it was wild but that was by a lfs so they could have made that up i have pics but im looking for the cord to connect it to the comp.

Here you go
 
I think im going to go $100 or best offer what does everyone think about that.
 
if you had pics of the fish, I could tell you a fair price you could get for them.. first the fish half to be nice and round, no football shapes. should have a small eye. if the eye is too large, then they were stunned at a young age.. if they are of a pigeon blood strain preferred with NO peppering. no one wants the fish with peppering anymore. those are for rookies.. and if the parents have the same pattern, and almost the same size (female a bit smaller) and everything I said above, you could get about 300.00 for a pair.. and then go down from there.. I did breed discus in the past and had a bunch of pairs going. I seen some fish that should've been culled and people were asking high prices.. post a pic, I'll tell you what you should get for them...
thanks andy
