hi,
just a quick question before i get to ahead of myself but would this group of 12 be ok in a 4ft tank all to themselves or would you suggest splitting them up ? also any ideas of the male/female ratio yet ? cheers simon.

With could filtration they would be fine for now but I think if you can would be good to split them into two groups. Sorry haven't got back to you its been a bit mad here. I will have a go at sexing later on today and let you know.

Cheers

Well 2 choices really haha you either sell them for more money or be what i would consider "fair" and sell simon them for the price they are advertised for. But i am merely an observer, and shall now shut my trap haha.

So the L080,s have gone

Post 8 £19.99
Post 11 £16.00
Post 12 £20.00 (New low price)

And now someone is offering £350 for 11? which is roughly £32.00ea.

Keep them if I was you as they will be worth a grand by the end of the year.

Cheers

:oops: I presume if the "other" purchaser changed their mind, the actual price is surely the lowest price. Can't understand why anyone would be daft enough to offer twice the asking price!!

Simon, someone is selling good size Juvies (2.5 inches) on AC for £10 each

Just looked on here and wow! thanks everyone for your very helpful inputs! lol I actually came on here to remove them from the advert and apologise to Simon for even considering selling to someone else. Lets not forget though Simon not once said he wanted them just asked questions about them. So once someone asks questions does that mean they should be taken off the market??? Clearly I misunderstood the etiquette of advertising! Oh and thank you for pointing out the type-o Clearly the I wouldn't put the price from 16 to £20 on purpose (come on!). Also that person offered that because they are advertised else where for a different price (forgotten to update all the adverts) also because he thought they were a lovely group. Simon, i do want to apologise because i am no longer selling them, im going to try and breed them as i really do think they are stunning fish, so for that i am sorry.

Thanks again everyone for you advice.

Your right, You can sale them for whatever you want and to whoever you want as Simon has only enquired. My pricing issue was me trying to be funny so for that I apologise.

Goodluck with breeding them

A fish isn't sold until it's paid for, I doubt anyone would expect any different, but I guess it's helpful to keep a track of adverts if you're selling over a number of forums. I think perhaps just telling Simon they were "now sold" or you had decided not to sell would have been better than "I will be honest with you, someone last night has just offered me £350 for the group. So im not really sure what to do..." because that may just be interpreted as you trying to push the price up, not that I am say thing you were, just that it could be interpreted that way.

Personally when I am selling anything I always go on a first served basis and check to see if the first enquiry wants them before moving on to the next, though I would always say something like "let me know by......"
