Fish

This is so hard for me to do...

I will be moving overseas and need to find good homes for my fish before I go. I have lots of time still, so I am looking for the best homes possible for these guys, especially the big ones.

First priority will be to whoever buys my tank since it would be nice keep them with it but PM if you have a suitable home for any of them. All the larger guys need at least a 6' tank and a few of the tangs need at least a 180.

All fish are extremely healthy and as of now ich free. They have all had ich and never been QT'd so its around but they have not shown sings for a good month and a half now. They eat literally all day long as I feed them whenever I see no more food left on their clip, so nice and fat!

5"-6" Coral Rabbitfish $30
6" Hippo Tang $40 SOLD
3.5" yellow tang $25
5" Naso tang $30 SOLD

Might already have homes for these two but PM anyways if interested.
7" Sailfin SOLD
5" harlequin tusk

Pair of Blue damsels Free

3" Scissor Goby $10 SOLD
6 Blue/green chromis $5 each SOLD
2" Cleaner Wrasse SOLD
2.5" Hawk Fish $20 (Tentatively spoken for)

I will not be able to catch them until I remove most of the coral and rocks. I am hoping to arrange a day that I can move most of them at once. I think it would be much less stressful this way.

Might be a few weeks until any of the fish are available for pick up. Not first come first serve type of deal, I am going to choose the best home.

I am starting a 10g and would like to have your 2 free blue damsels if you don't mind.

Yeah sure. They may end up outgrowing that but would be a while I think.

Will they be the only fish though? They can get quite mean and won't allow any other fish in that tank. So if you plan on other fish, I wouldn't recommend them. Just a warning.

To bad you weren't closer and it wasn't a couple of months down the road. As you know I now have some space in my tanks to work with. Sorry to hear you're moving, all the best of luck with everything.

Actually that is really too bad! You would make a good home for them.

I can't ship them though. Too big and too stressful.

I know it sucks that you're far away. However I agree with you about shipping. I wouldn't ship any of my fish, I personally just couldn't take the risk of something going wrong in transport.

Yap, they will be the only fish in my 10g. I did have 1 in my 3g in the office but it jumped out and .......

Cleaner Wrasse is tentatively spoken for but I will put you down for the Hawk.

I would be interested in the 6 blue/green chromis, Yellow Tang, cleaner wrasse (if still available) and the scissor goby (although I need to do a bit of research on this one). I have recently set up a 150 gal. (200 system vol.) tank (4' x 3' x 2') and am looking to the future for stalking (upgrading from a 50 gal thats been running 9 years) Currently have healthy pair of clowns and a Copper banded butteryfly. I am willing to wait until you are ready as it gives me more time for the tank to stabalize.

Let me know. Best of luck in your new adventures.
