Not from a fish store I don't... The mark up is horrendous. |

They have to cover their overheads. Just remember that they have probably killed 19 of every 20 fish they purchased  - unless they've been fortunate enough to pass them onto some other poor person so they can die at their place instead.

Try totally tanked Maddington .... sometimes they have poor coloured goldfish for about 2 dollars or so each. At the Koi place on Armadale road you can get small koi for $ 2.50 or so. |

A lot of the fish shops sell the poorly coloured as feeder fish. That's where I got mine for cycling and they have all since turned into beautiful fish. |

cheapest is not always the best option imo. in the future i will only purchase stock from suppliers who bother to quarranteen them. i don't mind paying a little extra for the peace of mind. you could loose all of them in a week if diseased. not worth the hassle. |

Just some feed back onm y experience with the canning vale markets fish place. They were really good. i don't know if they were what you could term poorly coloured or not, but they certainly seem bright and colourful to me. It's 8 days later and all my fish are still alive and swimming around happily. All their fish looked really healthy and the woman at the stall knew her stuff. i got 5, 5cm long goldfish for $10. seems pretty decent price to me, i'd certainly go back and buy more from her, you can get 12 for $20. |
