Do You Reckon This Is A Good Deal?

[Genesis]

I need to get rid of my 3 Golden Severums and my 2 Silver Dollars as I wish to begin a planted tank and they are all lawnmowers

At my LFS (Maidenhead Aquatics, Wheatley) I was offered £6 each for the 6" Gold Severums and £5 each for the 6" Silver Dollars; meaning I'd receive £28 for all five fish.



Is this a good deal, do you reckon?
+ How would I get them to the shop (15 miles away)?

Hello, (like your stock)

>It sounds reasonable, although maybe ask for more for the Severums as they cost almost that much at 2-3 inch usually (around here) Depends how quickly you want to offload.

15 miles; would that take approx. 20 mins? what type of roads?

You probably need XLarge bags (doubled up) if you are putting them in some. > Would be good to place bags within a large bucket, surrounded by packaging to keep more secure/heat to not escape much.

There will be more ways to transport them (Oxygenated chambers etc..), but it's not too far.

Cheers.

Where do you think I could get the bags from?
Should I ask my LFS?

Price wise, yes. You are not going to get much more, if anything for those.

1. because most stores have a harder time selling big fish.

2. They need to be able to resell it for a price within reason so people will buy big fish.

Thanks for the info Nix!
I will definately sell them to my LFS
