Ok, another fanciful idea I have here. Given my circumstances, what fish would be good to breed in order to make an income? Here are some of the parameters:
The breeding operation must have a low start up cost ($5,000 or less).
The fish must be easy to sell as a baby.
The baby fishes must be transportable by package delivery in N. America.
I want to breed a fish that is unusual and therefore be a supplier to a niche.
I want to breed a fish that is not being bred by a lot of people.
I want to breed a fish that is no more than moderately difficult to breed (I'll accept your definition on this given the other parameters).
It must be freshwater.
It must be small to medium in size (3feet five inches max TL).
I want to earn $1,500 a month profit (income after expences have been deducted) at minimum.
Once the operation is set up I would expect to work less than an three hours per day to maintain it.
THANKS! THIS IS AWESOME! I WOULD LOVE TO GET PAID TO DO SOMETHING I LOVE DOING!
Lastly, I have to breed a fish that I am fond of. Below is a list of fishes that I am fond of.
It would be great if someone who knows breeding like there is no tomorrow and who knows these fishes could give a rating next to each fish on the list. The rating will indicate if the fish is likely to be easy to breed or not. Lets use a 1-10 value system. A one is as easy a guppy to breed. A ten is impossible to breed. A five is can be bred but is moderately difficult. Five is the average difficulty for breeding. Even if you only know the rating for one of these fishes, please supply it. Thanks again!
