What should i breed?!?!?!?!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
ive never seen a "what should i breed" thread take off so good. well swede and i have posted a lil much but o wel... :)
 
yeah adult FH can sell for lots. idk how much fry would sell for
 
i was hoping to find a fish that will breed for me weekly.
any good fish like that? will the killis breed weekly?
 
I think a 1-2" FH fry of good quality would sell for 10-15 dollars but then he lfs would need money so you would get $5-8 probally

guppeys breed every 4 weeks
platies every 6 weeks
mollies every 8 weeks
 
i have breed all those before, they arent that profitable.
fun to breed tho :)
 
no fish that breeds that often will be worth that much money. besides, even if you have fish that breed that often, they won't be livebearers and you will need tankspace for the fry to growout in. instead of looking at regularity in breeding, you should look for things that are high dollar. also, look for things that breed large amounts of fry each time. flowerhorns can lay up to 2000 eggs at a time. even if ten percent live, you have a pretty good return for that. but once again, it would take multiple tanks to be successful
 
yeah your right swede. its just that i dont got that much tank space. :(
 
if you don't have much tank space, dont expect to make much money on breeding. what are we working with for tanks? or singular tank space?
 
You could try breeding german blue rams. They sell around 15$ full grown here. I don't know how much fry is produced per spawn but you could probably make 50-70$ every 2 weeks once you get grow outs going. I think they spawn about every 2-3 weeks.
