Great!
I got couple of shops here that buy guppies from me regularly. One gives me $1.50 per male and $1 per female and the other $1.50 per guppy regardless off sex.
I find it is easy to approach a shop that you are a customer of; ie. they have seen you in their shop many times. So that when you approach them to sell some fish, they know you are from around and their customer and want to do business with you. If you walk into a shop you never go in chances are they won't be interested in your fish.
Great that you were able to sell them.
Cheers, Serkan

Yes I agree Serkan, although this one is a new aquarium that I had only been to once before and he was interested because he said he has always liked to get fish from local breeders because he knows where they are from and that they will be hardier than the imported ones..Rang him the next day to see if they were still ok (its hard to say goodbye:-)) and he said he had already sold some.... quick hey!!!

Congrats on selling the babies!
Sorry I hadn't gotten back to you about buying some. Have only (in the last few hours) gotten back on the net at home where I had this group bookmarked. I dont' know what I did wrong but I just couldn't find it in google!

Thats cool! I have more still growing... about 15 with another pregnant female and an experimental trio in a separate tank.... so more to come..... bought a really nice green spotted cobra (I think that is what he was called) and am hoping to use him at some stage but I have limited tank space so will have to be patient.....
