What's The Most You've Paid For A Fish?

[WILDER]

Did well getting that fish for £300 paul i've seen them at £500 to £700.

 

[willtang3000]

paid £250 for a banjar red arowana

 

[dwarfgourami]

2.50 (pounds) each for my cory cats. And that was when I set the tank up. Letting myself being talked into buying livebearers, I am not likely to need to spend money on fish in a hurry again. Saving up for a new tank, yes, certainly.

Most people are in the cheapskates region Although I'd be willing to pay a lot- for instance, for some dwarf pygmy gobies or a zombie plec.

Same here, my para plec was a real special case for me, usually i just keep to 99p guppys and platys- but i'd love to have a zombie plec as well

 

[grumpymole]

£6.50 for an oscar for me

 

[andywg]

55 for a plec (a little pricey, but good specimin).

Most in one go- around 100 for about 14 fish in one go (including some rare cats and a shoal of clowns).

 

[Ddraig Goch]

I try not to buy any expensive fish, mind you my LFS is the cheapest I've ever been to!!

I'm sticking to .50p-£1 livebearers and £1.20-£2 cory's ATM, but I used to buy young fish at a few £ and then sell them when they got too big for my tank, I've sold a talking cat for £6 and a sailfin plec for £10.

I paid £25 for 3 Synodontis ORNATIPINNIS, which ive seen for sale at £95 each on TRIMAR.
Most I paid for one fish was my Boulengerella lateristriga which was £32 (and had to drive hour and half to get the little sod).

[Ethos]

I've spent about $95 in one go - on african cichlids, one of which i've already posted about..

Im glad my friend works at a lfs, he sneaks me fish or gives me really good deals, but the most Ive paid was 10 dollars, and it was not worth it.

 

[Durbkat]

What happened?

 

[_Cal_]

Nothing, the fish just wasnt worth the money, I wasnt impressed, they were cuckattos, which many will agree are great fish, dont get me wrong they are colorful, but my rams had more personality, so I want that route.

 

[wuvmybetta]

I paid 80 or 90 for my wild caught b.kapuas last year (by the way, I think my male is holding!!)

When I bought the giants a couple of years ago I paid 150 for the pair, but I was wickedly ripped off,imo.
Over all, I don't have any cheap fish =P
