I’m looking for livestock for my other tank.
Before I start gradually stocking one by one, I’d figure I would ask here 1st.
Maybe someone’s shutting down their tank or downsizing
I am looking for the following fish:
• Hippo or Powder Blue Tang
• Yellow Tang
• Niger Trigger
• One or two schooling Bannerfish
• Powder Brown Tang
• Sailfin Tang
• Flame Angle or Coral Beauty
• Mandarin Goby
• Two to four Cardinal fish
If you have any of these for sale, please email me .
Please let me know the size of the fish and your asking prices.
I am looking for the following corals too:
• Kenya trees
• Neon Green Nephthea
• White and green Frogspawn
• Neon Green or Red Mushrooms
Southwestern Connecticut areas please

2.5" hippo tangs here for 29.99 thats going to be a price hard to beat. I got mine there and he's been fine and healthy.
He's based out of New Rochelle so its really not a horrendous drive if you want to save on the shipping.

becareful with a coral beauty if you are keeping corals it will nip at them and eventually kill some. I had to sell my last coral beauty because of that --0 although Ive never had a problem with my flame angel -- just a great looking fish in the reef.
Good luck with getting the livestock

No I dont really have anything. It's just that 3 tangs and a trigger is wayyy too much for only a 75g. Some people dont even recommend 3 tangs in a 210g tank. You're probably going to have to take 2 or 3 of those fish out in the future.
Also, watch out for the trigger and lionfish if you're keeping corals/inverts. They're both known to eat them.

Thanks for the headsup, but so far - so good.
Everybody is living in harmony and no major squabbles. :bounce1:

Yeah I understand it could be fine now, its just that the tangs will eventually grow way too big for the tank.
Anyways, good luck.
