Checking interest in mated pair of tomato clowns...

[EchoFish]

Hi all! I'm thinking about selling my mated tomato clowns. I hate to do it, but things have come up since their purchase and I realize that I do not have the time/resources to raise the fry. It's selfish for me to keep them when someone else may want to try their hand at fish breeding.

KEEP IN MIND TWO THINGS -- 1) I'm not sure yet that I'm selling them and 2) the male is currently being treated for ich. IF they are sold, it will not be until treatment is complete.

I think paid $100.00 for them, so I will take $100.00 or best reasonable offer. Would also entertain trades. Currently looking for PC lights, skimmer (GOOD skimmer, like AquaC), tanks, pumps, ro/di unit, SD, good live rock. Livestock wanted: very small puffer (likely dogface), small powder-brown tang, pair of black ocellaris (juv.) Always in the market for miscellaneous equipment (heaters, monitoring equipment, other handy items). Also could use CD player for car, various computer and gaming equipment, TV for bedroom. I'm pretty open.

I live in Springfield MO, and will not ship. Pick up, would consider meeting halfway. Would drive ALL the way if the trade was good enough...and you don't live superfar (gas is craaaaazy!)

Oh yes, I forgot: The fish are great spawners. They were spawning within 6 weeks, even in the 20-gallon Q tank. Tons of eggs, and the male is a great caretaker. They are currently eating a mix of freeze-dried plankton, freeze-dried krill, flake food, frozen food (similar to F1), and they love calurpa (that's actually where he picked up the ich). Beautiful coloration on both fish, very nice sized too (approx 6" and 3"). Can send pics upon request (this evening when I get home). Feel free to email me at: paintonherhands at yahoo dot com Thanks again!

Don't think it'll come to that, but still good to know. Do you work there?

 

[shaw]

yep

Cool, also good to know. You guys interested in a breeding pair? I'm sure I won't have trouble selling them, but seeing them in a big tank would sure be nice.

Wanna trade for some free passes? I'd sure like to take my nieces...
