Does anyone on this site breed any type of fish, shrimp, etc?


How did that go for you? My friend does that and makes a couple hundred a month. I'm currently breeding African cichlids. More specifically, O.B. Peacocks and German Red Peacocks.I used to breed Discus
Are you looking to do it to make profit or for feeding your other fish?im breeding guppies eventually.


As of right now with 1 75 gallon tank, with a divider im currently making around $200-$300 a month. Nothing crazy but ill be expanding slowly every 1-2 months. My goal is to one day open up my own freshwater fish store.Really no point in breeding non-exotic fish. Interested in the margins of profit doing this.

African cichlids. Right now im just selling to my local LFS's, but looking to expand to shipping fish on ebay, amazon etc.What kind of fish are you breeding and where do you find buyers?

Oh ok, so like fancy guppies? Gotta let me know how that goes, good luck!no just experiment with cool strains

What did you breed on accident?Not intentionally![]()

It shouldn't affect your other fish in the tank, lemme know how it does!By owning livebearers, one of my platys actually spawned one fry today, but the platys came sick and I didn't QT them (still learning) before adding to the tank. So I dunno if they're gonna make it, but if they don't I hope they don't take my corys/pleco/shrimp with em

OH! You said it came sick, I thought you had said because you spawned a fry, it was going to make the rest of the fish sick. My bad! Well, I hope you can figure it out and possibly add some medicine in the water to solve it before it spreads!Infections will infect the whole community
Ohh I meant the platys came sick, I'm not sure if the fry will survive or not. Gonna let nature run its courseOH!
