[Gun]

Hi guys

What would you say the top ten most popular tropical fish/most bought are(in your country)...?

It would be interesting to know the UK's top ten...I would say guppies/neons/angels are definitely there

Any ideas...?

Hi guys thanks for replies

Would you say Livebearers top the lot...?

If so, why do you think so many are bought..even though they basicaly 'breed' themselves... Obviously there colour/general shape/water tolerance would sell...but surelly with the huge reproduction of this fish...it cant be top of list....or can it (I'm thinking guppies in particular)

Saying that...Neons could also be top dog ......

i think the livebearers do well just because they can all be really unique and colourful and the fact that people love to see baby fish in their tank.

Whatever is used to make a Mcfish sandwich.

A PM explaining to them about the sig thing would've been better than making a remark like that.... if you were serious and not just joking that is.

Anywho.... I think people are attracted to livebearers b/c of the colors and most people don't realize just how much they breed when getting them. They just think "OOOO Purdy colors!"..... that's how I was at first lol But I only got male guppies so the whole breeding thing didn't come in to play heh.
