How is your tank setup? I am going to try and sell them first, I payed $10 per fish, but if I cant get ride of them I will let you know next time I am headed your way.

You have any males you want to part with?
 
Let me know if you head my way because I would be interested.

Depends on which males you are asking about. I have quite a few different males I would be willing to send away. What are you looking for?

Well I guess that depends on what you have haha I have no idea what all the names are, you have any pics of what you have available? Right now I have a Red Shoulder and a Ruby Red, so something different from those two. I could be looking at making a trip down there in a few weekends maybe so let me know, I am sure we can work something out.
 
I have a bunch of different Victorian males that would look good in an all-male tank. I have Saulosi males by the truck load.

Vics:
Astatotilapia Nubilus - Males - few to spare
Hap sp. 44 - Males - couple of these, they are smaller 1.5-2"
Ruby Green - Males - I think I have some of those.
Mbuna:
Pseudotropheus Salousi - Males - Quite a few of these
Cynotilapia White Top Hara - Male - Probably 1 could go.

I could probably come across some more male if you are interested in anything in particular. Let me know.

Want to buy a fish tank?? I think I have a couple.:ROFL::ROFL:
 
I can also get my hands on some Blue Cobalts, but I'm not sure they would go with Peacocks.

Hey man, sorry I havnt gotten back to you...crazy busy. But I will be slowing down soon, this weekend I should have a better idea of whats going on and when I can get down your way.
 
No big deal. I have been super busy myself. Just let us know when would be a good weekend and we will try to free ourselves up.

Here is a confiscated pic of my male. It was given to me by the lady I bought him off of. Give you something to look at.

How large is your tank? You could probably add another male in that group and help disperse the aggression, or you could remove the victimized male. Just because you remove the aggressive male doesn't mean you remove the aggression in your tank. I have a group of otter point jacos and there's a sub dominant male that does get picked on, but he's still perfectly fine health wise. It's just a natural part of their behavior. I would only be concerned if he wasn't eating or something... then you have a problem.

Keep your: favorite fish > most colorful fish > best breeders > everyone else... At least in my opinion :). Good luck!
i was going to say the same thing but you said it best... the aggressor would or could just find someone else to pic on...
