The fish/shrimp that I'm most interested is the one that sells Comment from : MammaDuck

The good news is that I just discovered cory eggs in my 29G tank Now I’ve got to figure out what to do with ‘em! I wasn’t even trying to breed them Comment from : Diane Craig

I’ve got a LOT of Endler-Guppy crossbreeds, and took a batch of them to a fish club meeting/auction NONE SOLD, even starting at $1! 😢 Comment from : Diane Craig

Do you need a license to sell fish? And if so how would you go about getting one? Love your content Comment from : Nezra

As a 17 year old I'm doing pretty well I've got my guppies plants snails and shrimp I'm hoping to get there one day but I've got a bunch of tanks that I'm expanding my complimentary plants Comment from : ThatGuywiththeAnimals

good video Comment from : Sohaib Qargha

That's how angel's in Florida are a quarter at breeders/ wholesalers There are way too many angel's in Florida! Comment from : Kurtis Stutzman

As a farmer I can tell you: the key to any kind of livestock is diversity The cattle market dropped? That's OK grain is selling pretty well Gluten free trend dropped the grain prices? People still need eggs Shop doesn't want you angels right now? That's fine because you have bettas and danios as an option for them Comment from : Merlin 4Real

Guppys shrimp and javamoss in a 20 gallon tank dont u need other plants aswell to that tank, when you got so many guppys? Or do the javamoss take out all the "things" from the water that plants need to do? Comment from : Nordbyen Mikrobryggeri

Great video Amazing information I started rasing fish at age 8 when I graduate high school I was running 150 tanks I made more money with Angels/ Oscar and Cory cat's But when you are the first person in your club to bread Barbados Cory's You find out it is almost impossible to sale them in quality I had 750 at 1 1/2 inch I ended up selling them back to a Florida whole sealer Lesson learned Have some ware too sale before jump on to deep Comment from : Scott Cahala

yo I really appreciate the lesson brnobody ever explained business to me Comment from : Aaron Ruggles

most of my tanks are secondhand once I got a nice batch for instance from a pet shop that upgraded their displays Comment from : MostlyWeed

Great info, Thanks Cory x Comment from : jo smetham

Inspired by this video series, our next club talk will be a panel discussion among a fish store owner, a rep from a fish farm/wholesaler, a "successful hobbyist"/fishtuber, and a new fish breeder They'll be talking about this topic from their different perspectives: tips, tricks, and traps We'll definitely shout you out for the inspiration! 😊 Comment from : Sarah Woodring

Lol sell the equipment, make 1K! Comment from : Screaming Fly Productions LLC

I'm already breeding mystery snails Comment from : Reptile Club

Another great video by Aquarium Co-Op I watched these when they were first published, with absolutely no intention of ever doing it myself This week, I plan to take my first couple bags of fish over to the store after chatting with them This channel has done such an incredible service to the aquarium hobby and community over the years! Comment from : Fish of the North

6 years later, still great content Comment from : Philip Brady

Get a 10 gallon tank some guppies/endlers cherry shrimp ramshorn snails boom they breed like crazy you'll be making money In a month or two Comment from : Brady Faling

I feel like I learned a lot here I also feel that he is aiming more towards hey, breed but before, do your homework because you need to learn more SHOW ME DAH WAy! Comment from : Randy P

My fish store don’t buy anything from me, they don’t even give me any credit but what am I gonna do when I have lots of fry and no room to keep them Comment from : Gopher

I breed guppies and cherry shrimp in the same tank but I also have bred mystery snails in that same aquarium I grow java moss, valisneria, dwarf sagitaria, and ludwigia I sell about 50 bucks of plants a month out of that tank and 30 dollars worth of shrimp 80 bucks of month from that tank It's strange It was my first ever aquarium It's gone through all the stages with me and for some reason it's the biggest moneymaker for me and because I have it scaped so well with plants it's my free marketing I don't waterchange it either I test it monthly and the plants pretty much destroy all the nitrates It stays a little below 5ppm I water change it just for good measure every month or 2 but it doesn't need it Comment from : Animal Addiction

I started to breed guppies and goldfish, mostly what I love and won't mind keeping should things go sour Comment from : Luis A

How do I sign up for membership please? Comment from : Sharon Costello

I do not comment on YouTube videos However, dude you deserve to be paid for this info This may not be what everyone wants to hear, but it's worth it's weight in gold! I raised fish as a kid, stopped for various reasons want get fish just for fun and as pets in my adulthood again What I took from this ( I took many things) Think about the customer, what would the they actually buy and also just how much would they realistically be paying brAlso what looks cool to you may just not look cool to the public I also relate your video to other businesses ( I work in the food industry and I am now planning to start my own small enterprenuer dream ) The real world experience, advice and business sense you got and give is way better than some fancy pants MBA business guy! Please more business related videos!!!!! They are the bomb! Comment from : Sharon Costello

Can you keep a Mbu puffer solo in a 75g Comment from : FinSanity Aquatics

Breed more expensve fish and brng the price down the nmore people will buy them cos can afford thempeople buy tetras n guppies cos they are cheap Am I wrong? Comment from : PazLeBon

i love how he says for the guppies buy an male and 2-3 females well i sell mine privately with 4 males and 8 females and growing Comment from : spoots 21

This video excited the heck out of me because I started a month and a half ago with 4 female 1 male elephant ear guppies, glass shrimp, and 2 prolific plants Right now I have 24 babies with more on the way as well as shrimp nymphs As long as I occasionally diversify the gene pool on the guppies I'm excited for the future Comment from : J

Not a big profit but the local mom and pop fish store trade me 1$ in store credit per guppy no matter the size Comment from : Osvaldo Trujillo

What the rule when u have the same ones that get the fry,like same "family"that mix up and make the "babies"? Comment from : Monika K Kvcs

Very honest, informative But in today's environment of social media? There are now more ways to sell stuffs without retail stores But still suits local purchases who wants to operate locally, so study your market and position yourself to what suits your market Comment from : francis ong

Another thing to ask instead if what will you buy is, "what do you want more of but have trouble getting that is breedable?" Comment from : Lacy Fins

best advice for new breeders, breed two types of fish minimum Whatever you choose for profit and something you love Comment from : Lacy Fins

I've been building a good business relationship with my local fish store guy and trade in my extra molly fry for things I need for my tank just to cut back some of the cost of owning an aquarium I've only got one tank and when my fish drop 50+ babies a month, it's good they have somewhere to go so my tank doesn't get overrun lol Comment from : Vanissa Berg

This was really insightful and easy to understand Thank you ! :) Comment from : Daisy Fryer

I wish I had a local store, I just have a petsmart in the next town over an hour drive away Comment from : Allison Bailey

Thank you so much for this video, you really teach me valuable tips here, and not just about fish!!!! Comment from : Ciber

Years ago (1991-95) I was breeding blue/black metallic guppys and black veil angels I was selling my guppy pairs for $2-3 a pair, and my quarter size angles for $1-2 a pc, and nickel size angels for about $75 a pc Had about 6-8 local stores (within 60 miles) I sold to Wasn't going to make a living that way, but was nice for it to be able to pay for itself Comment from : Bryan Simmons

Guppies have done and sold before but this time that is a side hobby while I focus on blackneon tetras blackruby barbs and trying for a 3spot gourami colour morph not found commonly the gourami might be difficult but is far more for me than money if I can make back the cost of my setup over the next 10 years I will be happy and if I don't I don't care cause I have an tropical aquarium again and the base of my outdoor frog tank split as I was writing this is 7:34 so will drain it tomorrow and check the damage might be able to repair may have to rehome my frogs for a while Comment from : LostSoulNexus

Another tip I may add Always always get 20 long instead of 20 high if you breed in 20G (small ops) 20 long gives you more room and more “space” for double / triple duty I do guppy + pearl weed /moss / frogbit + shrimp I don’t even do shipping and I made about 20- 50 a wk just from Facebook marketplace with 2 tanks Time spent on tank is about 10 mins a wk doing wc and trimming Comment from : Josh Ding

Wow i was gonna try to breed discus guess not any more Comment from : KeepItBrief89

I am considering luanching a fish breeding "company" with my freind we plan to luanch with 3, 20 gallon tubs growing constant java moss to get money to start up large scale corycat breeding Is this a good idea? Comment from : Lukas Brian

Out here in California Discos fish sale for ninety-nine Dollars eachbrGuess if there was a Breeder coming up with a Hundred Thousand a month they'd be cheaper Comment from : Jonathan Sanchez

Was planning on buying ranchus and expensive equipment until i see this You sir are a legend thank you! Comment from : Princess Railey Sophia Janoras

Literally started breeding in $10 tubs from the hardware store Only swapped it up because people love seeing the fry in fully scaped tanks lol Comment from : Violet M

I started with some guppies as hobby during early COVID Times, now I am selling plenty Guppies and recovered the aquarium cost and make enough to buy new fish and good food for my fish So basically my hobby paying for itself Now maybe I start shrimp and Java moss 🤑🤑 Comment from : Stha_B

Bro i love watching your videos your straight to the point you explain with details and you not like these other annoying guys that scream through half the videos Comment from : El Pinchi

You would actually make more breeding Oscars than tetras Tetras are $3 or $5 fish, Oscars can sale for $10+ Comment from : Kuntry-Swagg

Delightful and informative! I have been watching a ton of your videos, because I have not had fish for a long time, but am planning to get a couple of fish tanks for two reasons: I like watching them--especially neon/cardinal tetras, and because I love using the stuff that I vacuum out of the sand occasionally/and the tank water when I put in new clean water to feed my house plants My houseplants THRIVE on the stuff! Your videos are always very informative, and you speak my language You are very kind and read Now you have just opened a new fun reason to have fish--I can sell a few to a lovely fish store! How very fun--and it will pay for my quality fish food that I will be buying! Last time I had neon tetras they were giving birth to live babies! I didn't even know they would do that! Su very fun!!!! Moss, shrimp and my beautiful neon and/or cardinal tetras! Perfect!!! Great for me at home, and great to provide healthy fish, etc to others! Thank you very much for being such a sharing, caring man/shop owner Comment from : Lynda Evans

What do people think about breeding bristlenoses was thinking bout starting to breed Platys for profit but ik atleast in my country bristlenoses sell quick for obvious reasons Comment from : The triple hobbiest

lol "slow it downslow it way way down" haha Comment from : Nick Change

Galaxy Rasboras Comment from : The Creature from the Seventh Chamber

Mate I get the same said to me all the time They want to cut corners breed a fish that make them a profit straight away Most the people who start breeding to make money fail I learned about them and did it out of interest Now years and years later I've only just started to earn a income I enjoy watching your channel thanks James fromfryfishfarm United Kingdom Comment from : @fromfryfishfarm

I spent 750 in 3 months I’ve made back 400$ in a month so far :) Comment from : Kevy Williams

You are saying, which is very true, is - "you have to speculate before you accumulate"brWise advice Comment from : ROSEMARY DUDLEY

This has activated my lizard brain MUST BREED GUPPIES! Comment from : Max Hyland

Got a old retro metaframe fish tank I got some of those Comment from : magus morrow

I breed guppies, I now sell to the LFS supplierbrYou can get more as in store credit than cashbrI raise Java Moss in a 55 gal trash can Guppy grass is good too Comment from : david diehl

When you go to sell the java moss how would you ensure that there are no tiny stowaways that customers may not appreciate? Comment from : Whit Ney

I love your honoust video's! Comment from : How to grow dragon fruit plant

Why do people keep saying guppies are okay with cherry shrimp I just fed them a $15 dollar meal Guppies like to pick at the bottom alot and if the shrimp is small enough or the guppy is big enough it's gonna eat it! Comment from : HYPE LOGO

I started keeping fish for the enjoyment Breeding was a challenge, interesting and fun I didn't think about selling until I started having a lot of success breeding and getting a lot of offspring I first was just giving them away, but as I started accumulating aquariums, and the resultant large number of offspring I now have to start selling them just to get rid of them and pay for the food, supplies, water and electricity My goal was to break even, making a small profit was a pleasant surprise As I approach retirement it seems like a good way to spend my time doing something I enjoy and making a little money is a great bonus Comment from : Texasbiology

Hi Cory I am thinking about breeding places and angle fish ROAD TO 1 MIL Comment from : Nick Leveris

thank you for the info and your time Comment from : Werner Mills

Im actually thinking about breeding guppies and shrimp and moss! I have a softshell turtle who loves fish, so extras are taken care of! Comment from : Marcus Motchnik

This is an old video and i really really hope you see this comment!brI would like to start breeding smaller fish, but I would like to breed outside and ideally all year roundbrI live in the UK and in my area the average low winter temp is as low as 1C (34F!) and I imagine the tubs would regularly freeze over I don’t want to breed goldfish Is there anything that could handle those lows? Would that even be too cold for something like white clouds? Comment from : Tom Backhouse

Guys, making YouTube videos are more profitable than breeding fish I guess he can earn at least $10 per thousand views So this video (320 thousand views) can bring him $3,000 Sharing how you breed fish will bring you more money than selling the fish themselves Comment from : Shusen Wang

3:58 Whoops 😅 Comment from : Animetronic

what about betta? any market for local production where you are? i know a lady that has a garage filled with hand made 3-5ish gallon cube tanks and breeding buckets she sells them at the flea market Comment from : fakiirification

How to buy from you? Comment from : Stephen Antonicelli

cool! Comment from : tom cleaver

„Instead of going out a buying a factory where you can make 500,000 shirts a day, how about actually trying to make a shirt and maybe seeing if someone would actually want to buy that shirt“ I wish that I’d heard that same quote prior to getting an MFA in painting -_- thanks for the honest and thoughtful advice This guy is my favorite for solid fish information Thanks Cory! Comment from : Ryan Schroeder

Great that you are honest, I completely agree with everything u had to say, great video Comment from : izzy se

Need more advanced videos Comment from : austiefrostie1

Awesome infolove your knowledge on market prices ECTcan see why you have been successful Comment from : Tye J

OMG I was that angelfish guy 15+ years ago! I was focusing on premium strains and it was harder to move them If I'd just been breeding "mutts", which is what my local customers were moving and were asking for, I could have handled those volume sales My yields with the premium angels was too good but very few aquarists were buying those premium fish from the local shopsbrbrSo yeah, I could make $2-$5 per fish on quarter size fish but I had a hard time moving them all if I was yielding 200-500 fish per weekbrbrIn retrospect, I would have been better off moving junk angelfish at $1 a pop I would have been in it for less money, and I would have been moving more product more easilybrbrThere's a lot of hard-earned wisdom in this video Comment from : TerraMagnus

I got tons of java moss Didnt know they sell a lot Lol Comment from : Noel Val Pulmones
