We've (wife and I) have only been seriously into the fish hobby for a year now. We have 2 running tanks, One cycling, and one dry which is going to start cycling soon.
That's our history, now here's our future.
My wife is sick of her dead end retail job. I told her she could stay home cause I make enough to support her, our 3 dogs, a gazillion fish, and the mice that sneak in from the woods occasionally. We are throwing around the idea of attempting to make some money from breeding. We have already started with the easiest being convicts. As we speak the eggs are probably hatching or one day from it. I have a feeling we wont be able to get rid of them since they don't seem to be in much of a demand, but it's our first step. Eventually we want to move our way towards discus. What we actually end up breeding we don't know. I have a nice pole barn which would work great as breeding grounds if this ends up working out.
I guess I am just asking for opinions and to see if anyone out there other than the obvious big time LFS types have any tips or suggestions for the little people like us.
