Seriously, what do I do with them?!? I have a 280 gal aquarium and they have grown to 8-10 inches long. Local big aquariums dont want them. I also cant find anyone with a big enough aquarium around me. Suggestions? I want some out because they knocking over corals and splash too much water out of aquarium. Thanks!
That is why I (we) should not buy a fish unless I (we) can keep it for ever. I bough two T. gigas but I know that I can get it to Texas State Aquarium when it outgrow my 320 gal tank in 20 years.

Those fish are not even too big for that aquarium, but a livestock sale thread with “free to good tank” will move those in a hot minute
 
I guess you have tried the Dallas World Aquarium and the Dallas Zoo. The Aquarium Service people seem to be a good idea.
I have about the same size tank, 320, and would never consider Sailfin for any of the Naso Surgeon fish. Good luck with your's. Hope they get to a good home.
