Ok...so I got these 2 new AWESOME fish today. I've been searching all over the internet today but can't find the info I'm looking for.
The only prices I'm finding is for babies. I'm not at all interested in selling them I'm simply curious as to how much they are worth.
One is an adult male "Electric Blue Jack Dempsey" he's gorgeous and is about 9 inches long.
The other is an adult male "Tiger Oscar" he's incredible and is about 12 or 13 inches long.
Anybody able to tell me how much they are worth?
 
You can probably go more for $75 for the adult EBJD. It really depends on the quality though. Pics would help. :)
 
Yeah....I'm wondering about them saying the oscar is worth $20 too ....because a 2" one sells for that at the fish store here ... ???
I haven't even seen the electric blues here and have no clue where it was purchased (belonged to a military guy....so could have been bought anywhere)
Doesn't really matter though....because I don't want to sell them....I was just curious :)
 
Around here 10" oscars go for half of what 3" oscars go for. I would say $10 for oscar and $75-100 for the JD depending how much someone wants it.
 
It's all about the individual specimen w/ both<all>fish. A 9" EBJD is a rarity indeed, if he has few or no flaws, he'll go for some guap! Post a pic so that you can get an honest answer to an honest question.
 
ok....thanks for the info.
Yeah...I really only wanted the ebjd...but it was an all or nothing thing because he was being transferred overseas and needed to find them a home asap... So I took them both...worked out great anyway though 'cuz my kids are crazy about both of the fish :)
