Yeah too bad but I think for the long term its best.

I have a 20g he could go in .. he'd be king of the tank. Willing to ship? I can pay for the envelope if need be.

tee hee hee. Sorry man, couldn't resist.

Good luck, hope you find him a home. I had a similar dilemma last year letting go of some rabbitfish, but they went to a really good home (way bigger than what they were in) so sometimes these things work out.

You've made me an offer I cannot refuse Tony!

Not too far off of one of the PMs to be honest...about how the tank was kind of small but he would be the only tang and the water is keep 'perfect'...yeah, I doubt he would mind going from a 125 to a 200 and then to a 90...suuuuuure...

I bet it sounds like I am being really defensive about this...and I am. This guy means a lot to me and Im not just going to give him away to the first 280G tank that offers.

Its amazing how presumptuous and bold people are when they think they can get a nice big hippo for cheap

I've sold or traded corals or anemones to the wazoo but it was the first time I had ever sold a fish, so I was sort of weirded out by the whole process. But sometimes things have a tendency to work out for the better. Hope things work out one way or the other.

Justin let me see if maybe one of our client's tanks would be a good fit for him. We are setting up a couple large systems in the next little bit.... and there is one 500 gallon right now we are cycling that he could go into down the road.

I'll let you know when its ready and you can check it out.

Cheers

Bump...

I may want to get him out this weekend. Its starting to take its toll on my tusk.

Only PM if serious and have a big tank. He is very healthy but does have/get ich. It doesn't bother him at all but just something to be aware of.

We can negotiate a price based on what you can afford.
