Hi I haven't been on here in a while due to moving states but I'm back and have a question. This is a tank I'm aquiring off of Craigslist and the family who's giving it to me says the fish got big quick and the kids are no longer interested so they are getting rid of it. My question is can anyone tell what these fish are? I unfortunately don't have a better pic at the moment. I had 2 ideas but I'm sure they're crazy lol they look like iridescent shark or paroon shark juveniles. If they are I know I have to find a way to rehome them because they are not home aquaria fish lol how would I go about rehoming such fish if they are in fact one of those 2? Thank you!00505_atudGEYBMou_600x450.jpg 00505_atudGEYBMou_600x450.jpg
 
Pangasius hypophthalmus, a very large growing fish 4ft. in length
I hear Cabella''s will take large fish sometimes, but you could also sell them in the marketplace on here

Thank you! I thought it was one of those 2 lol I live in Idaho so hopefully I can find one of those nearby. I don't know how to ship fish so I'm not sure selling them on here would work

You can have an ad as "pickup only". I see too many pangasius that have outgrown their tanks.

That is a nice tank though :)

Put em outside a LFS in a polybox before they open!-)
Or eat em... feed em to someones snake. Anything but that tank for much longer.
 
That's crazy I didn't even realize they were an edible fish. I mean all fish are edible in a sense but they actually sell the Swai as you said at Wal-Mart lol
 
I might Do the put them in a polybox in front of the lfs before it opens lol but no snake feeding for me
 
None of the local fish stores will take them but I will try to put then up on here once I have them and get better pictures of them
