I was thinking today about what fish gain a higher doller amount as they grow bigger? I noticed dats seem to get REAL expensive with size but i've also noticed that silver arowanas and pacus seem to have a really low resale value. What do you think?
 
peacockbass gain money as they grow.........
 
Clown loaches.

Grow a few to 12" and you're set.
As long as it pays for the electricity, water changes, and food/


Typically fish that are exponentially more expensive as adults are slow growers.
 
Most to all fish get more expensive as they grow. Just think of it-how much more does it take to get a fish to that size?

dats are less common and are slow growers u could put a grip of cash on feeding it and have little progress in a good amont of time vs. the silver and pacu almost every store has them all the time and can grow up to 1-2in a month
 
But i hear that even a big silver aro wont get more than $50 for a one thats 24"......I have 2 senegals and 1 ornate bichir.....how much do you think they are worth full grown? Thanks
