How much are fish around your end?

[Shetland James]

I think that fish are simultanious more pricey and less pricey since I first started keeping fish about 8 years ago. I'm in the Shetland Islands, Scotland - 180 miles from the mainland (nearer to Norway than Scotland, really) so extra transport charge is a given.

A random swaith of prices:

Male/Female guppies: £2/2.20 (a lot more than I remember it, overpriced imo)
Cories: £2.50-6 (fairly priced)
Neon tetras: 80p (cheap)
Pleco et al: £5-15 (fair)
Small angels: £4 (fair)
Large angels (6 inch height/span): £15 (fair)
Danios: £2.50 (seems quite high, especially given that they're shoaling fish)

Sorry if this is a repeat thread.

Doesn't sound particularly inflated compared with mainland prices tbh.

I feel that guppies are. I've been selling the ones I've raised for a pound generally. More if they look good.

These things are more of a problem than a blessing, guppy fry. Although I do love them.

I get $1-$2 for my guppies. They're $3-$4 in the store.

Cories - $1-$6 for common species.
Neons - $0.80 - $2
Pleco - $1 - $$$$ depending on species.
Small angels - $3 - $5
Large angels - $5 -$20
Danios - $1 - $8 with GloFish on the high end.

Usually around £2 per guppy here.
Pets at Home in York £10 for 5 mollies.

Austalia is worse, guppys $5 each.

 

[Shetland James]

Isn't an Aussie dollar like, 1/4 of a pound? £1 = 4$AUS?

 

[Mark Hewitt]

It's not as bad as it was! $5 Australian dollars = £3.18

I paid $5 apiece for my emerald cories, $5 apiece for my harlequin rasboras, $5 per betta, (one was $14), around $2 apiece for my black loaches. My gupsters were free. Mystery snail was $1.

 

[Mark Hewitt]

So he looked at the mystery snails, he said "I'll give you one dollar", He said You've got to be jokin' man, It was a present from me mother.

At the moment to the Aussie dollar to the American is even or pretty much.
