Alright, now that all of the corals have been taken care of, I'm ready to re-home my fish.
Mind you, these aren't your typical fish... I've quarantined and treated ALL of my fish (they went through a copper/prazipro treatment in a QT before going into my display tank). I also have not added a fish in the last year+, all eat pellets, and everyone but the Potter's Angel eats frozen.
I've kept them all in a mixed reef (SPS/LPS/Clams/Zoas) and I haven't had any problems at all, but that might have to do with the fact that I feed them 3-4 times daily.
So here's what I have and how much I was looking to get for each.
> Moorish Idol: $100; this is my baby. I got him when he was a just a juvenile and have had him over 2 years. If there's food in the tank, he'll eat it and he won't let other fish intimidate him, but is not a bully. I know there will be significant interest in him, and just to give you a heads up, he might already be taken (currently talking to someone about him).
> Potter's Dwarf Angel: $50; nice and fat, great coloring, and loves him some pellets. Won't eat frozen for some reason, but is always pecking at the rocks and will never leave a pellet uneaten.
> Powder Blue Tang: $50; also a huge pig, and is a really nice size. I haven't added any fish after him, so I don't know how he treats newcomers, but isn't really a bully to the other tank residents. Will occasionally chase, but not for long.
> Harlequin Tusk: $50; I don't believe he is the more colorful Australian variety, but still stunning. He WILL eat any shrimp you have, so maybe not the best fit unless you're willing to part with any resident shrimp.
> Sunburst/Fathead Anthias: $40; great coloration and adds nice coloration to the middle water column of the tank.
> Yellow Long-nose Butterfly: $30; not sure why people think these aren't reefsafe. I've had two in two different mixed-reef tanks and not one problem. I love the different look that they give a tank.
> Starry Blenny: $10; comical fish that will eat some algae, but mostly eats pellets and some frozen
> Melanurus Wrasse: $10; beautiful fish, but will also eat your shrimp.
> Yellow-Tail Damsel (Chrysiptera parasema): free with purchase of any fish; this is not the aggressive type. Is not territorial at all and has not bothered any of my fish, including my mild mannered anthias. Most beautiful blue fish out there.
With that being said, I care A LOT for these fish, and won't sell to just anyone looking for a fish (especially the more "advanced fish"). So if you're interested in any of them, please PM me your tank profile/husbandry habits like how much you feed, and anything else you feel will be helpful for me to determine where these fish are going.
Thanks,
