Question About A Breeding Business

[ArauraDiscus]

I hope you understand that you will not make a lot of money breeding guppies though? I suppose you would be doing it for enjoyment mostly? But people will only accept them en masse, and most places will not accept them at all as they are very readily available from major companies and breeders. You could try someothing rarer or harder to breed, like various gouramis and cichlids which are in high demand. Often many local stores will only give you store credit as well. Good luck though.

Yes, I know. I'm only breeding guppies for a while because mom doesn't think I'm ready for anything more complicated yet. That's why I'm trying to max out my profits so I can prove to her that I can do it, and also so that when I do move on, I'll have the money for it. Can you give me a list of the most in-demand fish that have the fewest breeders? ( tropical only please)

Microworm take about a month to be ready to harvest, My friends has a simple list to follow.

Keep it damp.
When ever you feed you add extra oatmeal and dampen it down.
Once a week he adds a dusting of yeast.
And after 6 months it's usually split to start again.

When it's mature you notice the micro worms till be all over and you notice a lovely sweet smell from the
The worm's will live mainly on the side's of the tub and with a small paint brush you can just wipe these off with out any oatmeal mix.
