Re: LAST CHANCE

What kind of fish is that FSHKPR? We are putting in a Freshwater tank here at our office - that might be nice for our tank! Are you selling, or giving? How much if you are selling? Are you in GB? <br /><br />Is this a joke? :D <br /><br />Sean

Re: LAST CHANCE

Looks ancient. A cichlid? ... of the oscar type?<br /><br />To ship live fish, first ignore all state and federal laws. Then, place in a proper sized plastic bag filled 1/2 way with water, top off with forced oxygen to fill the bag and seal. Place the plastic bag in a Styrofoam container filled with water, seal and ship overnight. About 3 out of 4 fish will survive.

Re: LAST CHANCE

NO JOKE!! I have had him for a couple years i guess and i am just ready for a change want to go back to africans. he is the last fish i need to get rid before i can move in the africans. He is a black belt chiclid. he is roughly 14 or 15 inches long, about 5 or 6 inches high and 1-1/2 to 2 inches thick. real pretty blue color and mean as hell. will only get along with similar size and temperment fish. i want nothing for the guy. and really i dont want to fillet him either. EE i am in ashwaubenon. I have no idea what he is worth. I have never shipped fish before. i have asked around here the local clubs and such and nobody really has a spot for him. he really needs atleast a 55 gallon tank and bigger would be better. mine is 125.one guy said he would take him in the spring and put him in his pond but i dont want to wait that long.

Re: LAST CHANCE

Go to Wal-Mart, get a big Rubbermaid bucket for $10, and toss the fish into it in your basement or where ever it doesn’t freeze. In the spring, give it to the local guy to toss into his pond. Also, sometimes fish stores will take a fish on consignment, or if you don’t want anything for it, they will just take it and sell it.
