Where the Ducks Walk on the Fish, Pennsylvania
Ok here is the deal. I bought a full 110 gal tank set up off of craigslist (:headbang2$150:headbang2). My husband is picking it up now. I am not sure what all fish come with it, but I do know it has 3 red devils, 2 plecs, and some sort of knife fish. I got the tank to house my severums and angels and do not want any problems. So I know the red devils have to be sold. I am not sure about the knife or the plecos.

My questions:

1. Will 3 7"-9" red devils be ok in a 55 gal until I can sell them?
2. How much are they worth? (I don't have any idea- ball park figure will work)
3. Are knifes peacefull?
4. Is 110 big enough to house the knife plus 2 sevs, 4 angels, 4 blue gouramis, & 4 bolivian rams if the knife is peaceful?
5. If knife fish are not peaceful, how much is it worth? (again ballpark)
6. Is 110 big enough for 2 plec plus the other fish if the plecos turn out to be common?

Once it gets here I will take inventory of the fish and probably will have more questions.

Thanks for your help.

If this isn't the right forum for this, mods please move it for me.
 
1.Only if they are a FAST sale.
2.$30 MAX for the trio.
3.depends on species. Pics would be good to ID
4.Depends on species!
5.Depends on species...
6.Nope.
 
Thanks for the response Eoibio. I will take pictures of them when they get here and post them this evening. Then maybe you guys can help me identify exactly what I have inherited and what to do with them. I am not into fish that have to be housed by themselves because of aggression so the red devils definitely have to be rehomed. I know nothing about knife fish so I will have to wait and find out once I get a picture posted. I will probably try to rehome the plecos as well unless they end up being one of the smaller variety.
 
Hmm if you could even just describe the knife as most look pretty different. :D

Same answers, but I'm thinking you might be able to get $50 for the red devils. Depends on if they're LFS mutts or pure RDs. Depends on if they've bred.
 
X3.
 
that tank looks great. Most 110s are 48"x18"x30", just a taller version of a 75. That one looks like its a lot longer and it will be a lot better for keeping more fish.
