Can you make money from ornamental fish?

Arowana: The most common and most valuable ornamental fish on the market is none other than the Arowana. Among them, adult blood-red Arowana and golden-headed crossback golden Arowana with good quality have the greatest economic and appreciation value. Usually the above two types of Arowana will have different prices based on body color, body proportions, size, etc., and will also have price differences based on objective factors such as birthplace and source of goods. Famous species of Arowana have chips on their bodies and certificates issued by fisheries. The price of young fish ranges from several thousand to tens of thousands, and the price of adult fish is mostly in the five-digit range. Some of them are priced at six figures, which instantly kills other types of ornamental fish.

Arowana: A well-known species in the ornamental fish world, Arowana is a hybrid of many types of fish. Arowana is also subdivided into many types, but in recent years, due to considerable profits and easy breeding, a large number of fish merchants have bred them on their own. The price of Arowana fry on the market ranges from 1 yuan to 50 yuan, and the price range of adult fish is also large. If the color, body shape and head shape are not good, the price is only 20-30 yuan. If it is a high-quality product, it is estimated to be in the five figures, but most of them are in the market for a few hundred yuan, and sub-adult fish at two or three hundred yuan are already very good.

Thai Tiger: A recently popular ornamental fish, it is not very valuable, but it is famous because players often call dragon fish and tiger fish as dragon and tiger, and they can be mixed. Tiger fish are basically classified by region, the most common are Indonesian tiger and northern Thai tiger, and there are also rare Thai tigers. Tiger fish were originally precious edible fish in their growth areas, but they became popular after coming to my country. Among them, Thai tiger is the most precious and has the highest price, some can reach five figures, most of them are four figures, and Indonesian tiger and northern Thai tiger range from dozens to one or two thousand, depending on the appearance and size.

Japanese Koi: Koi are very common, and now Japanese Koi are gradually invading the fish tanks of many Chinese people. There are many varieties of Japanese Koi, and the price is basically reflected by the size of the body. The price of a ten-centimeter young fish ranges from dozens to more than one hundred, and an adult fish nearly one meter long can reach twenty or thirty thousand. However, many hybrid Japanese Koi now have prices ranging from dozens to one or two hundred.

There are many other ornamental fish that are also of economic value, but their popularity is not as great as that of dragon fish and arowana. Most of them have higher value due to their unusual shapes and small populations, but their ornamental value is not as intriguing as that of dragon fish and arowana. The others include: albino gar (several hundred to several thousand), emperor three-spotted (prices vary depending on the quality, mostly dozens to hundreds), colorful gar (cheaper ones are 4 yuan, famous species are more than 100, and they are only the length of a finger), peacock (cheaper one yuan, famous species are dozens or hundreds for a pair, 2-3 cm), piranha (also known as piranha, dozens to hundreds each), thick-lined silver plate (dozens to hundreds each)

There are top talents in every field. If you have good breeding skills and good supply of goods, you can occupy a place in the high-end ornamental fish market and make a lot of profit.

It depends on where your store is located. You will definitely make money in Beijing, Tianjin, Guangzhou, and Shanghai. If it is in Shanxi, you will lose money. There is no market. Orchid grass in Tianjin sells for 4 yuan, and in Taiyuan it sells for 120 yuan. If you don't open for a year, you can make a living for a year. In addition, you need to have a vision for development. It is said that raising arowana can make money, but if there are too many arowana, you can't sell them.

To make money, it depends on how many people in your area are doing this business.

I really want to work in the ornamental fish industry, but I have no experience in this area. I don't know where to start.

Whether or not you can raise fish is secondary!

1. First of all, our goal is to make money. Considering this, you should first think about whether there is a channel for purchasing ornamental fish.

2. The location of the fish store. There must be only a few fish-raising enthusiasts in a city, so it is also important to let others know about your store.

3. Understand the local market and consumption capacity, and then choose your own business line and what type of fish to sell.

4. Competition intensity. Observe the number of competitors and combine it with the previous three considerations to determine where your own capabilities lie.

Finally, you need to understand the basic knowledge of fish farming. It is not difficult to hire an experienced clerk. Don't enter the industry blindly.

After entering the industry, your character may determine your success or failure. In this industry, regular customers are more popular.

1. You must have good experience in fish farming in order to reduce operating losses and provide technical support to customers. Some customers require regular on-site maintenance.

2. You must have a good location to open a shop. You can make a preliminary estimate based on the population of your area. About 2% of people can raise fish, and only one tenth of them can be called a real "fish player". Remember this and never overestimate the market demand.

3. Have relatively fixed purchasing channels.

If you want to breed, that's another story.
