I got talked into a tang as algae control while my tank was going through the algae phase of cycling. (Admittedly, it's easy to talk me into a cute little fish.) The cute little fish is now a medium size fish and deserves a bigger home. I want to give someone a chance at a healthy critter before taking him to the LFS.

It's a Pacific Sailfin, Zebrasoma veliferum. I've had him for 8 months, he's grown quite a bit in that time. He's now got a 3" body; maybe 4" snout to tail tip. He eats entirely too well, doesn't have any aggression issues with current tank mates, and has been healthy the entire time.

I really like this guy and will be sad to see him go, but I want what's best for my little Sardine. I'd like to make sure he goes to a bigger better home, so if you're interested please let me know the size of your tank, amount of rock/swimming room, and tank mates.

Asking $40 or trade for zoas/palys.

darn I missed this one, and what a short drive I live here in Windcrest as well. I could offer visitation rights if this deal falls thru.
