Fish the LFS can't get rid of

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Sliver Dat? Never heard of those...

They have a CAE in a 240G display at one of my LFSs that's not for sale. They're hard enough to catch in small tanks!
 
At the LFS near me they have a bunch of 10-12" Leperinus. Those have been there since
before I can remember. He can't even give them away. lol

I'll remember that if I ever decide to sell mine :(
 
Sadly enough another RTC, that became allmost 2 ' in a year, since they took him in from the cafetaria next door...
It stayed in a 3 foot bowfront tank all that time. 25 Euros and i could take it with me.
He could move only side ways in the tank.
But he was gone a month or 2 ago, and i didn't dare to ask what happened to the poor fish.
Now there a tigrinus in the same tank, 3,5 inches the most , 395 Euros, thats 530US$.
bet he'll be around for some time, if the fish survives...
 
The only fish my lfs has for longer than two months are there display tank fish. Most fish sell in the first two weeks of being there, and even those dropped off large plecs and oscars tend to stick around for only a month or two.
 
One LFS has a giant african lungfish and a foot long RTC they can't sell...

My main LFS had an EBJD for 3 months 'till I bought him, and they have those needle gars (Not really gars, right?) all the time, that never sell. And a monster black pacu
 
A tattooed pink giant gourami. The tattoos are red and turquoise diamonds. It has sold twice, but returns every time. God, it's hideous.
 
a small tigrinus, maybe 6 inches. Actually a very nice fish. Been NFS since June because the guy had already given up on selling it. Want's 250 for it. Wish I had the loot. I just don't think there are enough MFKers in my area to appreciate that deal.
 
3 foot green moray , that they are housing in a 55 gallon ... its really sad, but i talked to the person running the store and im pretty sure they are giving me the eel to give a good home. He's like a baby compared to my big one , i would love to keep them together but my eel doesnt like other eels. He would have a hissy fit and spray blood all across the tank. But hopefully i get the call back today telling me to come pick it up. Then ill either be rehoming it or keeping it if my green puts up with him
