I know there are varieties of Kribensis, but what would non rare type fry generally sell for....??..
I can't seem to find a price on the web, and aqua bid listings aren't helpful....
I know here with my garden variety F1's I have I cant give them away. I have had several spawns and now have adults that are forming pairs and now no one wants them either. That last batch of fry I donated to a store. I know that not any help but that has been my experience.
I've read that too from other folks. .....but if colorful, they might sell for 5-6 per bag for $10...???
They're not mine....tho....
I had a wild pair from West Africa from New World Imports that were really rare a while back. There's like 40 types. These were pretty too, lots of purples in them. They spawned a bunch of times. No one knew what they were and I could not get more than $5 for a bag of 10 adult fish. I paid around $120 for the wild pair too. For some reason Kribs just don't bring in much no matter what they are. Sort of stopped messing with them after that.
Thanks Frank....that's good to know....
from what i have seen they range from $5 to $20
Here are a 1 of the 2 pairs I have and about to spawn again. If you are interested in these please let me know.
