I'm with this guy on this one. I have a couple of fish in my tank that I'm not thrilled about but don't really want to put the effort into fishing out and sumping in the hopes of finding a buyer. I didn't buy the fish, I adopted both of them. Now they are just freeloaders in my tank and if someone came along and said, "hey, I'm looking for a pajama cardinal if anyone happens to have one", I'd be more than happy to offer him up. But again, I can't be bothered to be proactive about it and remove him.
