I justed posted on a local forum asking folks to consider dumping their extra tangs in my tangless tank that has started to grow Ulva. People have seemed confused, but what I am hoping is that someone with two tangs that are fighting will solve that battle by giving, or selling me the extra fish. I don't want to import another fish when every so often a problem, extra fish has to go back the the LFS. The stress of going back to the LFS (and their community tanks) has killed a lot of fish in my experience.Extra! Extra! What do you do with that “extra” fish?
Extra! Extra! Read all about it! Ok, so there’s not really any big news here - just a question about your approach to “extra” fish. You know, the one that showed up. Maybe it was given to you, or it looked lonely at the fish store, or it was part of a pair or a group and now you only have one left. Do you give it away, take it to the fish store, move it to the sump, add another tank, or just revise your plan and build around it? Maybe the fish is kind of a “third wheel” (or should it be “third fin”?), it was not part of the master plan, or you firmly believe that there is no such thing as an extra fish. Please share your thoughts in the discussion about what to do with extra fish.

Just think tank is well stocked already with plenty of angels and tangs so yes another issue is introducing them without the emperor and queen in particular tearing them apart! As far as original plan which was to raise them and sell them, that now is not an option as they’ve become adopted family members with their great personalities! They are just like scribble also in 625g. Just great personalities in shared sub species. Think my family members w/b quite upset if I go with original plan. This happens rarely but has in this case!Well the other question is why they wouldn't fit in the 625 gallon - fish migrate in and out of areas all the time. Perhaps you're overthinking? If not - follow your individual plan IMHO
Beautiful pairI’m dealing with that right now! I have a beautiful pair of personifier angel fish that I just had to have. They are alone in a 55g and happy as can be BUT we all know that they will outgrow that tank rather quickly. I have a 625g & 240g that are at capacity….I have fallen in love with my Personifier pair and although originally raised them to sell, just cant do it….dilemmas…dilemmas…( pardon the touch of cloudiness as glass needs cleaning)
Thx….so beautiful I cant get rid of them!Beautiful pair
I understand! I have a beautiful male. It and my scribbled has the best personality in my angel system.Thx….so beautiful I cant get rid of them!
I know they do sell fish traps…but that also probably depends on the type of fish. What is it?So, I have a question stemming from this point…
I have a fish that is being picked on by another. My LFS has offered to take back as trade - which, I’d love to do. My question is, short of taking out all of your rock, how do you catch the fish? I’ve tried chasing with the net, then it just goes and hides in the rocks.
I‘m still relatively new to reefing - my tank has only been up for about 7-8 months. Would love to hear how ideas for catching/trapping fish you’d like to remove from your tank.
