Clown Tangs Cheap

To make a long story short...I have three Clown Tangs that were mistakenly shipped to me by my partner. They will be arriving Wednesday morning, and I only have room to keep one of them long term.

If anyone would like one, I'll sell them real cheap just to get rid of them. They should be 3.5 - 4 inches in size, and I would part with them for $17.50 each.

I have tank space to house them for a few days if I need to.

Just shoot me an e-mail or PM if you're interested...first $17.50 takes them.

I'll take one Marc, I PM'd you already in regards, but I'll bring the extra 17.50 tomorrow when I pick up at Starbucks, thank you.
 
Brett-

Consider one yours.

The Clown Tang is a herbivore and shouldn't pick on corals at all. They can be aggresive towards other tangs, and like colored/shape fish. They can get fairly large, and one should have them in a decent sized aquarium.

ok, i was worried that it might pick at my corals. since they are herbivores, ill take one. if you ar still dropping off the corals to cheng can you bring one with you? ill be picking up some stuff from cheng tomorrow. if not then maybe we can meet somewhere. i dont know where that starbucks near o street is at so i cant really meet you there. i do live in elk grove though, maybe we can work something out.
 
Marc,
I don't think my clown tang is eating. Any suggestions? Is it actively moving and picks at any algae growing on the return tubes, but other than that, I haven't seen him eat anything.

Amazing looking animals with incredible coloration. They unfortunately don't do very well in the home aquarium. I'd like to hear how they do though. Make sure to give them plenty to eat early on. The more Nori the better! Don't let them stress about food source because they'll already stress about everything else that's new to them.
 
I have had 66% success with these fish. The problem is that everyoneââ"šÂ¬Ã¢"žÂ¢s parameters are different and this (as well as size of tank, inhabitance, tank type etc) can have a impact with your success. For example, one of my clown tangs was very docile as it got along with three other tangs. It may have been because my 9 inch blonde Naso (bubba) would always investigate quarrels and break them up or it was simply happy and did not become a bully. Although I am probably not the norm as I housed five different pseudochromis together, the clown tank is a jewel if you have the patience.
 
James-

What all are you trying to feed it?

I have one as a recent addition, and I've been feeding mine almost exclusively with dry seaweed. Not the pressed Nori sheets used for sushi, but a dried seaweed that you can get at an Asian market. It lasts much longer in the aquarium than the pressed nori sheets will. I rubberband mine to a piece of PVC and just let them graze on it all day.

Hey Marc - how is the new site comming? Im holding off on getting my sexy shrimp until I can order them through you :)
 
James-

I just shipped the last bag I had to a guy in Tennesee. I get it at the All Asia Market on Broadway, across the street from Fuji's. This is down almost to the Target store.

It's in a long skinny bag, and you want to check the ingredients closely to make sure it doesn't have anything added to it. I'll run by Friday and pick some more up, it's only $1.99 per bag. I'll drop it by your house and leave it on your front porch, PM me with your address so I don't have to look it up in my files.

Now THAT is service! :) Good luck, with the tang guys. I think clowns are incredibly beautiful tangs, I just don't think I have the heart to try one.
