My son wants to sell his cichlids. However, African species are not my strong area, and any help is appreciated. Ranging in size from about 3 inches to the largest peacock being around 5 inches. The brichardi are staying. Id and any idea of what to price them at would be most appreciated.

I saw I think 2 bumblebee and 1 is a peacock for sure. The white one is a fish I see all the time just can’t remember then name.

I’d say like 6-7 dollars a piece considering size
 
Looks like two Lake Victoria Haps, "Zebra Obliquiden" M & F / M - Venustus, M- OB Peacock, Demasoni Mbuna, albino Red Zebra Mbuna, Bumblebee Mbuna & M -
Auratus.
As for price, it depends where you live. In my area fish are relatively inexpensive. Haps - $15 - $20, Mbunas $10 - $15, Peacocks, $15 - $25.
 
We're in southeast fl. This helps. I know 3 are Victoria, however one will be a bonus as its missing an eye. Thank you. He wants to keep the brichardi as center pieces and try to add dithers of some sort. So he's selling off the others. I figured he'd get maybe 5 bucks a piece for them.
 
I think $5 a piece without being able to verify pure fish is about what I would expect. Maybe a little more for the OB.

Brichardi often do not tolerate tankmates...what are the dimensions of the tank?

It's a 45 tall. He's thinking top water. There's a large syno in there as well. I'm skeptical that it will work. But, he's doing a little research to see if it may. We've got 14 tanks running, so if it doesn't, there are 3 other options for whatever he puts in there.

I agree, except the white one looks like snow white socolofi.
