I own 2 blood parrot fish that i have had for about 5 years. One is seven inches and the other is about six. I am going to change up my tanks environment, and a friend of mine told me i could sell these fish to a pet store. How much money should i be expecting to get?

You need to check on your pet stores, but I think your best bet is to find a shop that deals exclusively in fish. They're more likely to have room and I doubt they'd turn them down if they do - grown, healthy fish sell quickly. Around here they would retail for about $20 each and they give 50% in store credit, but it's different everywhere.

HAHAHA $100! $50! Not likely. You might get 5-10 dollars if you are lucky. Those fish are a dime a dozen when the store buys them from a supplier, why should they pay you much more?

I wouldn't expect a huge amount. Most petstores do not want fish that they will not be able to sell. Most people do not want to buy a 5 yr old fish. Part of the fun in having fish is watching them grow. One question, why have a fish for 5 yrs and then just decide to get rid of it?

Rainbow shark is $2.ninety 9 Pictus catfish is $9.ninety 9 It relies upon what pleco you need to make certain the cost Kissing gourami $3.ninety 9 and that i'm no particular about the African leaf fish and parrot cichlid. it is going to likely be troublesome to get her to diminish the cost using fish. i'd search for for the different fish and examine costs. tell her the most suitable decision and attempt to barter

I think about $ 15-30 each. (if you're lucky) Remember,they are old and are hard for most store owners to keep them for long.They need a big tank. and that is only AFTER the shop owner sells them.
You might get a store credit,not money.

well it where you go to like if you go to the petsmart stores or at the grooming shop or any where else then there are alot of different prices and costs on different fishes you really want to buy . why dont you go to one of the store and see what you can afford to get and pay off .
