So I've been planning on upgrading tanks for a couple of months I was working with a 75 and a 55 and a couple little tanks. So kept checking around looking for tanks and found a good deal on a 125 when I picked up the tank a couple days ago I had to take all his fish with it witch is a long list..... My problem is I bought this tank as an upgrade for my fish and now have a Paroon shark that will out grow the 125 easily a 15 inch common pleco that cannot stay considering it will most likely kill my beloved ornate. I have no idea what to do with all these fish my lfs will take them but won't give me store credit and there's about 15 other fish not mentioned any suggestions.
 
Craigslist. Or giving gifts to friends is always a good investment.

None of my friends are into keeping fish for the most part besides one who has 2 oscars and a pleco crammed in a 40 breeder and one who has a electric blue crayfish in a 10

Is there a local aquarium club in your area? I've rehomed fish on craigs list before with good luck also. IMO the best karmic thing to do would be to just give them to the LFS, you have no attachment to them and probably aren't going to get much for them anyway.

Yep just took them to the lfs and moved all my cichlids into the tank last night I'm happy with all mt cichlids in the bigger tank
