FS - REDTAIL HYBRID - BRIDGEWATER, NJ - PICKUP/MEETUP ONLY

hey guys, we have a redtail hybrid catfish we bought at about 6 inches, he is 3 feet if not a little larger. we have him in a 150 gallon tank but he is quickly outgrowing it. plus the other night he ate one of the plecos lol. also we are moving would hope to sell him within the next FOUR days!!!!

please if you are interested (and serious) leave a reply.

we are asking $200.



i attached some pics, they are from over a month ago. hopefully you can see them cause i'm not really sure how to work this forum yet.

3ft in a 150 holy crap!

LOL i know!!!!! he is quite big for the tank. but the guy who sold him didn't realize that catfish don't really have their growth stunted by small tanks, they just keep growing. he is estimated to get up to 5 ft long by a special fish doctor we use when he eats things he shouldn't lol.

3ft in a 150 holy crap!

My thoughts were more like:

I have no idea what a 3' TSNxRTC is worth since they are so hard to find a home for. Great fish, but that guy is a beast that needs an even beastier home.

oh also (since i haven't figured out how to edit, lol), we would prefer to sell him to someone that has the proper set-up for his size, this means someone with a pond or custom tank larger than 200 gallons.

my research has shown that within a year he will outgrow a 300 gallon tank so hopefully someone out there has a custom that he can fit in!

very sad. you'll probably have better luck giving him away, very few can house them.

 

[mysticalxwhisper]

that's why we are trying to sell him, lol. we are looking into the university of philadelphia, but i don't want them to like do research on him, just observe him, ya know?

someone should buy an Intex pool from Walmart and set it up for this guy.

 

[mysticalxwhisper]

you mean like a kiddie pool? lol. thats not a bad idea, cept that we live in a townhouse type house. not a big backyard, small concrete patio. maybe we can fit it . also, the new place we are moving is 3 floors up and only has a tiny balcony. so a pool wouldnt fit

Just FYI, I've never seen a large catfish like this sell on this forum because even here its difficult to find anyone who can actually care of them. Usually, if you can find ANYONE who can give them a decent home you are lucky. He's a great looking fish. I hope someone can take him for you.
