FS: Fish (3) Saltwater

Few fish for sale. I’m trying to condense my tanks, so I’ll have just one fresh and one salt.

  1. Blue Damsel. This fish was the first fish I bought to break in my tanks. He was too much of a pain in the ass to get out of my tank, so I left him in there to be eaten by trigger or the lion…he didn’t get eaten. Now he’s best buds with the trigger. He’s about 1 1/2" long. $5 takes him.

    (Google Images Photo, I can’t get a good shot of him, too much light reflection)

  2. Black Volitan Lionfish. Bought him a couple months ago. I’m making the 90gal into a reef type tank, so he’s a big no-no. Not too active during the day, more of a conversation piece I guess. Picky eater. His dorsal spines are venomous, he will sting you if you get too close. He’s a blast to watch eat. About 3" long, 6" wide when fanned out. Looking for $25.

  1. Niger Triggerfish. My pride and joy. I really hate to sell but I know that he won’t be good in my reef tank. As much as I’d love to keep him, he’d torment my little fish too much. He has a ton of personality. He loves being looked at. If I kneel in front of the tank he comes right to the glass and slowly swims by to show himself off. He is somewhat aggressive to new fish that enter the tank, so he would be a bad first fish. He is very healthy and looooooves to eat. He eats right out of my fingers, and has no problem with me touching him. He’s about 4" long. I won’t let him go to anyone with less than a 90gal tank. I’d also like to know a stocking list before I sell him. $40 firm.

I vary their diets as much as possible. 3-4 times a week (every other day) is flake food, the other days are a combination frozen food medley of brine, krill, daphnia, marine cuisine, etc. etc. The lion gets live rosy reds a few times a month, and silversides a couple times a week. As a treat a couple times a week they get raw shrimp from the seafood counter. Fish have been very well taken care of, never overstocked, and never had a major malfunction in the tank. Water changes every week of 10-15 gallons. I hate to see these guys go, but it’s time to make the 90 a reef type tank.

Delivery can be arranged. PM me here, or call me, Ryan (585) 355-5012. I live in Buffalo.

wow, if I was into fish I would certainly buy from you. I can tell just from your write-up you know your shit and genuinely care for the little bastards.

free bump and glws :tup: pics of reef tank when completed plz.

i have a niger trigger and that fucker grew huge…beautiful fish

thanks, I do enjoy having 3 tanks to look at since they are sooo different from one another, but it’s getting $$$. Feeding time is crazy since I try to vary everyone’s diet, etc etc. I’m really looking to get my community freshwater into a bigger tank, so I think my 40long (now set up semi-reef saltwater) would be perfect. So that leaves the 90 to become my reef tank, and the trigger and lion have to go. I don’t wanna take these back to the pet store…tell your buddies.
