Which potamotrygon are in highest demand?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I think boesemani is officially the most saught after ray.from what I hear they will no longer be available for export. This was terrible news to me as I was hoping to get a male and breed ,but theirs still hope in the form of co-operative breeding
 
I meant literally not fantasy hybrids but this is awsome thread so far.

Ok what rays are actually in highest demand right now?
Black rays are least In demand now ,well not least but theirs Definatley more supply than demand now
 
Well with rays you can measure the demand by the price. So since bds are still the most expensive, it's logical that those are the most demanded rays.

The black ray boom never started or ended the same people have always liked them it's just the prices that change

If marbles suddenly when up in price to $2k and black rays dropped to $50 that wouldn't change what I like

If the boom is over like you say it is they why are all the people who used to say I wish I could buy a black ray not buying them now if the boom is over and the prices have come down

When I first started keeping normal Leo the price was £90-125 and that was 20 years ago and no one was breeding rays so they were all wild caught

Leo's now are a much better grade now and sell for £350-450 which I think as the prices are back to what they used to be if you take into account the 20 years of raising fuel prices and import taxes I think the prices are very fair now if you also look at good marble prices which are £300 the £350-450 for a leoxbd is a great price

There was never a boom as not many people were will to pay $2k for a bd if anything you will get more of a boom now as prices have come down

You will never get a boom as you put it on flower or tiger rays as they get to big and are hard to keep

A good black ray just out classes other ray they have always been the nices pure bloods around you can't beat a high grade bd or p14

Now everything is getting mixed up with hybrids it give people a chance to get something different as its hard to breed 2 hybrids from different litters that look the same

People are mad if they buy and sell fish of any kind just to keep up with current booms

And why are p14 $1000 instead of $3000 like what they were, their was Definatley a black ray craze of fad or boom. If you didn't notice the hundreds of new ray keepers that grabbed them than I guess you don't pay attention. Their was only maybe 5 people in my province that were keeping black rays 5 years ago. Now theirs dozens , every pet shop here has or had them . Their Definatley is not the same amount of people t1 ,

I don't even know why I bother!
 
Guys are still bringing them in / selling them. I know of a couple of guys who recently paid $3,000.00 a piece for 6" BD's. I think we went through a bit of a fad here as black rays were so hard to get for a while and "everybody" was buying them. All the guys that wanted / could afford them have bought and are now growing them up and trying to breed. I think the other markets have had a more steady supply so they never saw the "boom" that we did.
