what would be a good price for a african goliath tiger fish? Not too good when it comes to this. I know you can get them at 3-4 inches for $250-300, but how much would it cost for one thats over a foot? I was told $500- 750 befor awile ago But is that true?
Let me know, Thanks guys!
 
someones have of seen one for sale down the road?
 
why do they cost so much? i got two of them at 4 inches for 200 each, are they getting rarer? i seen a 12+ inch forsale in a store for 1400 i belive im not exactly sure tho close too.

They're actually pretty common, and not really worth the money. Any other species of ATF is better to keep, GATFs get huge, and larger ones are known to bash themselves against the tank. And $1400 is ridiculous for even a 12" one.
 
Mine's 11 inches and flawless. If you wanted him, he'd be $750. That being said, he's not for sale. lol

Really guys its all about what you feel your fish is worth. If I put my fish on the market at $750 it would take forever to sell it if it even would. He's big and he's pretty but most people would rather just buy their own and grow it out. Some people who have established, large tanks who may desire to have an ATF might pay a pretty penny for one, but those individuals are definitely in the minority.
