I need to know how i obtain a licence for selling fish to pet shops that i breed at home in my own tank.?

recently i have giving away 25 guppies, a large golden gourmi and a very large and beautiful sailfin plec and i have been back to the garden centre where i give them away and the plec has been sold and so have most of the guppies and the guy i spoke to said that my guppies are getting more attention than the ones from his supplier and said that if i was a supplier he would get them me. which is why i ask the question.

the only time you need a license is when you are selling something to a corporate pet store. (i.e. PETCO). But if its just a local shop you shouldn't have to get a license. Especially for guppies...good luck
Reply:If you are just doing it for one shop I dont know that you need a licence. Maybe there is a way around it if you do. You give him the fish and he gives you a credit note to spend at the store. You are not receiving any money for the fish, you are giving them away!
Reply:You dont need one. If you start making large amounts of money then you may need to inform the tax office but with guppies that shouldnt be a problem. Probably best if you just trade your fish for things that you need for aquariums problem solved then
Reply:Just gave mine to pet shop and they gave me some discount on goods I bought for my tank.If they want you to breed for them surely they'll give you something for them if not give them to someone else.Don't think you need a license.
Reply:you probably don't need one unless you are making a huge amount of money that way.
Reply:i would go down to your local fish shop and ask where to obtain a licence. if they dont know the you can go to a diffrent fish shop or look online. i would have THOUGHT it would be ok to sell a small amount of fish with out a licence but please check before doing this.
