Gauging interest for my king/passer angelfish
 
I've been thinking of selling my king angel however I will not sell him to just anyone, I have a few conditions for any potential buyers.

1) must have a very large tank around 300g or more.

2) must have been in the saltwater hobby for at least 6 months.

3) if I don't know you, I will want to see the tank he is going to be going into to ensure it will be a proper fit for him.

I will warn any potential buyers now that he is a very aggressive fish and has attacked any fish around the same size or larger then him. I'm only thinking of rehoming him because I think my 230g is getting a bit small for him.

I would like to sell him for $200.00 he's about 8" price reduced to $180.00

He's been fine with wrasses and lionfish (no aggression to those) and I'm sure he'd be fine with eels. my bursa trigger which is about 3" he is fine with however he has started to pick on my blue line trigger which is about 5" He has been mean to tangs. I had a 5" sailfin tang with him and he tore his fins up in about 5 seconds flat. However when he was with a 3" orange shoulder tang he was fine with it. Not sure how he'd be with a yellow tang, might be ok since he'd be added after him but it's hard to say for sure.

He is definitely the prettiest fish I own and is one of my fav.'s even though he's a jerk to larger fish.
