4 Fish Free to GOOD home

I have a 6" Dogface puffer (A.Nigropunctatus) a Snowflake Eel (14") and a pair of spawning Pajama Cardinals,,, that I have to let go,,,, all free to a good home,, please,, no newbies.

The dogface (Fugu) is a real character,,, likes to be hand-fed,,,,will become very interactive with whoever feeds him,, he changes color when he sees me open the freezer because he knows I'm getting him a shrimp,, he also lets me stroke/tickle him. His diet has been dried krill, raw shrimp and the odd silverside,,,I feed him 2 or 3 times a week. I'll include a nearly-full can of dried krill. He can not be trusted in a reef,, he will strip your tank of ornamental shrimp & corals in no time,,,,, I haven't seen him take any snails but I wouldn't put it past him. I've had him for about 12 months.

The snowflake eel is a good-looking fish,,, totally reef-safe,,, he's been in my 29g with a pair of Ocellaris and 2 peppermint shrimp for over a year without incident. He eats silversides and strips of raw shrimp once or twice a week.

The PJ Cardinals have been spawning for over a year. They spawned in my 29g and my 75g but they would not spawn in anything smaller. They are well behaved and not aggressive, but they should not be put with other PJ's or there will be violence. They love Tetramarine granules for large fish,,, they stopped spawning when I switched to a different food,,,,I'll include whatever I have left (about half a can).

Priority will be given to anyone who can take all 4 fish and come and pick them up in Apopka sometime within the next week.

I am letting these fish go because I want my 75g cleared of everything except my spawning clowns and firefish.

I won't ship,, so don't ask.
 
I would love to take the cardinals if they're not spoken for. I may attempt to breed them at some point in the future, so their legacy can live on...:)
 
OK,,,,, jy544 has first dibs on the Cardinals,,,, Adnup has first dibs on the Eel. I'll contact you later tonight and setup a pickup ,, I already netted Fugu (he was mad as hell,, blew up like a balloon) ,,, might take me a couple of days to snare the eel,,, he's kinda wiley.

Noone wants my Fugu? He's an awesome fish,,, how many puffers let you tickle them??? He's a good looking specimen,, no cloudy eyes.

BTW,, the cardinals don't *exclusively* eat tetramarine pellets,, they eat everything I put in the tank,, (flake, cylop-eeze, BBS, Frozen,,, you name it) it's just they stop spawning if they don't get the pellets regularly.
 
Put me in line for the cardinals. I was second to post, but you may have received pm's before, so whatever position in line I am is fine.
 
Fish have all been spoken-for. Thanks for all the PM's, the fish were given away based on who PM'd me first.

If any of the new owners fail to show,,,, I'll get back to those 2nd dibs.

Best
