Free to a good home. I'd prefer to see him go into a big tank.

He's a tough guy--been through a lot of moving and reaquascaping and even a couple of months in a bucket with a powerhead and heater and live rock. I've had him since I acquired my 90 gal almost two years ago. And who knows how long the last guy had him for.

He's not one of the fish-eating green ones. Reef- and fish-safe. I just feel bad keeping him in my nano, which isn't even wide enough for him to fully extend (he's probably 14-16 inches toe-to-toe). And tonight he came out where I could grab him, so he's waiting in my sump for his next adventure.

PM me if interested. Please mention size and age of the setup you want to move him into. Thanks!

In the picture, you can just barely make out his silhouette in the top corner, where I managed to grab him.

Yep, we named him Carl. We're going to be sad to see him go--he's a character.
