Decent sized about 1 and 1/2 to 2 inches I'd say £10 each. But that's shop bought. They are rare so you could see if a fish shop will take them

Sorry to put a downer on it but Ellioti are not that rare anymore you can get them in any half decent shop and some less than decent shops.

Some shops will buy them though but you would be looking at maybe £2 per head maybe a little more. I paid £8 for a 2 inch F1 sp.Mixteco Gold so not sure you would be able to get for a Ellioti.

Depends where your based as well I suppose....

Classifieds on here you might get more but not sure on £10 per head.

The shop down the road from me is the only one i know around here that stocks a large amount of Cichlids and sells Ellioti at £15 each!
I live in south England near Brighton and store is a maidenhead aquatics.

Can only get them at one place in Manchester and that's maidenhead, even then they hardly ever have them in and get them from the czech republic.

im from Bolton and got these from oasis in manchester a few years back i paid about £ 7 and ive had 2 lots of fry off them only to get about 4 fish after trial and error . I just thought id post on here and see what sort of feedback i'd get as to rarity and price

In my experience with fry, a shop can sell quicker and at a much higher price then a breeder as they have a footfall and we only have the web.
