FREE Sand Perch a.k.a. Lizard Fish

[sugartooth]

Hello,
I have a very hardy, active, fearless, bottomless food pit of a sand perch free for the taking. (I got him for $6 so I really don't think he is worth much)
He is quite aggressive and waaay too fast for my other fish.
I don't want to just get rid of him. I want him to go to someone that wants him! Please, only people who know what they are getting into. He will get large (about 7-10 inches) and will eat anything that fits in his mouth!
He is currently 3 inches long and growing fast! The cool thing about this fish is that his eyes move independently.

You can take it to sho tank in mundelein and he will give you an in store credit for corals and such... just bring it in and he will tell how much he will give you.. that is what we did with our lunare wrasse who was the same way.. bottomless pit..ect.

Is that a freshwater or saltwater fish?

Hey, tweety, did you bring in that Lunar Wrasse about 1.5 months ago?

If you haven't got rid of him yet I would be interested. Would it be O.K. with a blue spotted sting ray or would he pick on the ray?

 

[sugartooth]

Hi Slave,

Tweety is interested, I will let you know if it goes/does not go.
As for the compatability, that is a good question. I am not familiar with rays.
This guy is lightning fast, so your other fish will have to be able to keep up or else he will just swim circles around the other fish grabbing up ALL the food. He literally stuffs himself so full I think he will bust!
He mainly likes the bottom and middle. He prefers to patrol, perch on a rock, patrol, perch, patrol, perch.
He is also very bold. He basically seems to fear nothing. He had my puffer pinned to the top corner of my tank! He's great because he will sit out in the middle of the tank and swim around even if you are pressed up against the glass to watch.

I will take him off of your hands if you need a home. I will even trade you a Sailfin tang if you want it.

Beester, if you're looking for a home for the sailfin I'll give it one.
