Need help pricing clown pairs

[Sullyman]

It's been a while since I looked for clownfish pairs so I'm sure I'm way out of touch with what fair prices are. I have fish I plan on selling depending on their value.
The first is a spawning pair of True Perculas, nests every 12-14 days.
They've had a couple bta's in their tank for a few months and have lost a lot of blk.
The 2nd is a pair of C-Quest Onyx Perculas, they aren't spawning yet but should be very soon judging by their behavior. Would it be better to wait until they are for a while or does it not make much of a difference.
Lastly I have a pair of Barrier clownfish being hosted by a healthy Red Haddoni. I really don't think I could part with these guys and they would have to stay together. It's thriving under T5's, aside from T5 and MH what other lighting keep it Happy?
Please don't PM me, just trying to find out some info. I'll post when I'm ready to sell and I won't be shipping so it will be pick up only.
Thanks in advance

Um what are Barrier clownfish?

You're going to get alot of opinions, mainly because spawning pairs dont sell often enough to warrant a "fair price".

Check www.ibluewater.com for pricing on their spawning clowns. Thats the only site I know of that sells spawning pairs, but IMO they are WAY overpriced on everything.

IMO, I would pay $250-300 ($425 at iblue)for a pair of spawning Percs, and $350-400 for Onyx ($585 at iblue).

I would be willing to pay more for a guaranteed spawning pair, but just because they spawned in yours doesnt mean theyll spawn in mine. And they will quit when you pull them out and sell them, so there really is no guarantee of anything but being clowns.

They're Akindynos clowns.
I totally agree moving them can change everything but knowing that they are active spawners makes it much more likely they will spawn again.
I was thinking that price range seemed fair to me, glad you agree, thanks.
