Fishville Tip 18: Choose fish that are highly profitable … There are many different species of fish available in the FishVille store and the price for each varies. Each fish also sells for different amounts and their growth rate or time to maturation differs as well. All these factors should be taken into account when deciding on which fish to purchase as these factors impact your profits. The ROI, or return on investment, can be calculated by taking your profit (sale price … expenses) and dividing it by your expenses. A larger ROI for a given fish means its more profitable. For instance, the Mini Dart Goby grows in 5 minutes, sells for 18 coins, and costs 7 coins whereas the Shy Hamlet grows in 4 hours, sells for 89 coins, and costs 35 coins. When calculating the ROI for each we see that the Mini Dart Goby (18-7 / 7 = 1.57 or 157%) is more profitable than the Shy Hamlet (89-35 / 35 = 1.54 or 154%). Of course, we didnt take into account the time to maturity for each fish in this calculation so thats something you should consider too. In the examples above the Mini Dart Goby grows in 5 minutes whereas the Shy Hamlet takes 4 hours. You can further normalize for this factor by calculating the profits per minute (see table below).
