I don't sell mine cheap.
It's a lot of work growing phyto, rots, and continual cleaning of the nursery containers over the time it takes to grow them out. Also, as they grow, they eat you out of house and home.
In addition to the time spent, I spend over a $100 a month on frozen foods for what I have here. It would be a lot more if I hadn't been selling them off for the last two months.

They are a ton of work! I don't think I have the time to raise a batch right now. I plan to give it another go in the future but I want to be completely prepared for them. At least you have a steady supply of phyto + rots. That's half the battle! Do you do brine shrimp too?

If I was closer to Calgary I'd take them off your hands. I use to raise/breed Discus and they were a ton of work as well.
