Clown for sale

[adamsky27]

Hey guys, I'm putting this guy up for sale. I don't want to ship it so I'm not putting it in the other forum. He's (or she's) really healthy (fat lol), eating very well, but I'm getting some Rod's Onyx so I can't have them together. I have no idea what kind it is, but it's all black and white, and the middle bar angles toward the back of the fish at the top. I think I paid $35 when I got it at Majestic, so I'll be happy as long as I get that much for him. Let me know if you want it, I'll fish him out tomorrow, Tuesday or Wednesday. These are the only days off I have coming up. I also have a tomato clown that I'm selling if anybody is interested in it. Let me know. Sorry for the bad pictures, it moves too much! You can get the idea though. I'm also interested in trades for frags :)

Have you tried reasoning with him? Explain that it would be much easier if he just went quietly?
J/K!
I'm having the same problem. I've only caught 5 of my 15 fish for the hypo treatment. They've learned from the other's mistakes...

hey adamsky27 what is your phone number? I have a friend who might be interested.

[adamsky27]

bginop I pm'd you. I still haven't actually caught it yet though, believe me, I'm trying!

I don't know if you ever caught the little guy ... but, I recently read an article on catching the ones that do not want to be caught.

It was suggested that once the lights were shut off the fish will be a little disoriented and you should be able to swoop him up in your net.

This guy also (literally) went fishing also. He would get the appropriate size hook(barb filed down - of course) and put the fishes favorite food on it and pull him out. I think I like the first suggestion better.

Of course I am the newbie on the block so maybe I have been smoked.
