WTS: Banded Cat Shark

[Brock Fluharty]

I bought him as an egg, and didn't do much research. I know, i'm aweful, and I should've researched before I made the purchase.

Right now, I have him in a 40 gallon ( I know, way too small). I planned to sell my 75, and 65 to get a 125, or bigger if possible, but looks like that won't be happening, so he must go...

His name is Bruce, he is probably around 5-6 inches long, and eats frozen mysis shrimp, which will be too small for him soon. He doesn't like squid, and I have neevr heard of a banded cat shark eating frozen mysis shrimp, but he does, and he loves it. I feed him Hikari mysis. I really don't think I could ship him if I wanted to, so that's why I came here. He needs to go to someone with a large tank, with lots of bottom room, because he does swim on the bottom. Not too many rocks, as he will burrow under them, and they could fall on top of him, and he would be killed.

I live in Williamstown, near Parkersburg, so if anyone is close by, and has the meansto take him, please do.

I would like to get at least $20 back for him (I paid $30), but I could go lower if you don't want to pay that much. Please, someone take him...

Thanks a ton,
Brock

Bruce, the tanks he has are awesome! He has three. One is a huge 300gal (I believe) the other is a 240 and the other is a 180 (I think) They are beautiful, the two largest are anyway. The smallest of them is full of aptasia, but he likes it that way

I know, I haven't seen his tank in his home, but I talked with the person that takes care of all of them for him and he told me all about it and the filteration system.

I'll have to pay a visit to Charleston then huh?

Does he have a reef tank?

 

[Reef4Fun]

From what I recall, they are FOWLR, he has one of the larger tanks just full of clowns, really nice. If you know anything about S.Charleston, Lester Raines is a Honda car sales place and is under the Dunbar bridge in Spring Hill, on Rt.60.

His tanks that are for the public are at his car dealership. The big tank is at his house but even the small ones at his office are nice to see. I think he has at least on ray no sure of the kind though it has been awhile
