Just thought I would share that my mannies have once again laid eggs and it has only been 12 days since the female last laid eggs. I have well over 2000managuense right now and I am going nuts lol trying to grow them to a fairly sellable size about 1/2". I still have 250 from the first laying about 500+ from the one after and 800+ from the one 12 days ago! and now about 1300 more eggs and the clutches just seem to get bigger and bigger with more and more being fertilized. Looks like they will be separated fairly soon because I can't keep up with my female laying. :nilly::nilly::nilly::nilly: :popcorn:
 
Cons have NOOO chance. Cons lay a MAX 200 eggs if that no where near as many as Managuense plus Cons lay every 3-4weeks on average as compared to 12 days apart lol. So I guess you can say they are a little worse than cons.

if ur willing to ship let me know, i can only take a few off ur hands but its a start.
yeah, if you got'em for a good price I'll probably take a few. is that one of the parents in your avatar?
 
The only reason why I hesitate to ship as I have before is that I had failed money orders for the fish and the packages could not be picked up as well as shipping costs were pricey. I still own a couple people on shipping quotes on here but haven't gotten around to it yet plus the LFS have been taking them quite frequently but not enough.

yeah, shipping would cost more than an individual. you'd have to sell em cheap enough that buying five or so would be worth it.

you're gonna flood your local market. jags are gonna be selling in your neighborhood for $2.99 to little girls who "want that pretty fish to keep Goldie from being lonely"!

LOL

maybe you can find a wholesaler willing to take the whole lot off your hands.
 
See there is no difference to selling to wholesalers and LFS because the Wholesalers sell to LFS. Plus they are F1 mannies because the Parents are Wild Nicarguan Lago jags so they are worth about $28 at maybe 4". I will give discounts for mulitple buys just PM in 2 weeks while i get this current clutch up to size or so...

Goldie is now lunch lmao!
