Depends on where you are as to how much you get per fish.

Most shops will buy them when they are an inch or so long. Generally you try to get them to about the same size as the ones in the shop. (ie: if the shop normally sells 1 & 2 inch fish then make sure yours are 1 or 2 inches).
You won't get as much for smaller bristlenose because most people sell them as soon as they can. This means there are lots of little ones around. If you hang on to them for a few more months, then you get more because they will be bigger and there won't be as many available.
