free fish to a good home

Donstuprich · 08/04/2006, 12:36 AM

I bought a mandarin goby at petbox the other day thinking it was a blenny. I was very wrong. Anyone want this fish? It requires pods and suppliment brine. I don't have the sump or LR to support this guy. I'll take it back to petbox tomorrow, or ocean it, if no one wants it. I'd hate to see him starve to death in my tank.

call me.

I can drop him up in my tank. It is well established with plenty of stuff to eat.

did it hurt?

jeffb3t · 08/04/2006, 04:04 AM

Naw, I can deal. Besides, FD needs my help on hooking up the booster pump.....

fdokinawa · 08/04/2006, 12:20 PM

I do not.. ahh yea, I do.. damn.

vest0830 · 08/04/2006, 05:06 PM

plus Jeff...the new livestock you will be getting in a few months should top a goby

Donstuprich · 08/04/2006, 05:06 PM

Well i have to wrangle that sucker today or a tank rebuild happens on sunday. I'm not looking forward to this. Any tips?

fdokinawa · 08/04/2006, 07:00 PM

only thing other than cuting the top off a bottle, is feeding him and trying to get him in the net..

jeffb3t · 08/04/2006, 07:35 PM

Yeah, If everything goes as planned, I will have plenty of room for a goby as well as other nice critters.

fdokinawa · 08/04/2006, 07:44 PM

well I'll take the goby for now, if it looks like my tanks not good enough for him, food wise, I'll stick him in your tank. Mine should be good now, I redid the fuge pipeing, the outlet sits right over the return pump now. Had to rebalance everything to keep enough water going to the skimmer pump area... pain in the ***..

fdokinawa · 08/04/2006, 07:53 PM

ahh d amn you cant say a ss on here.. thats gay. da mn commi forums..

fdokinawa · 08/06/2006, 06:53 AM

mmm hope my pod population is enough for this guy.. asked on thereeftank and they say they need hundreds a week.. pretty sure Im not at that lvl yet. going to see if I can get pods from PPM on friday, if not, he'll be on his way to your tank Jeff.. if I can catch him. lol

Donstuprich · 08/06/2006, 07:18 AM

haha... good luck. ppm water was loaded pretty good with pods. good looking fish, hard as hell to catch. Hence the re-aquascape.

fdokinawa · 08/06/2006, 07:33 AM

yea.. ive seen him once since Ive put him in.. really really dont want to pull everything out.. but if I do, Ill get that damn damsel at the same time..

jeffb3t · 08/07/2006, 02:14 AM

I'll take him if you don't have enough to feed him. I got lots of pods that he can snack on.

fdokinawa · 08/07/2006, 02:25 AM

he was out and about this morning muching on stuff off the rocks.. and like I said, I'll see if PPM sells pods. figure a few stocks of them and I should be good. If they dont then the "catch spot game" begins again..

fdokinawa · 08/11/2006, 01:46 PM

well I told PPM that I had a mandarin and asked if they sold pods.. they sold me this frozen food that they said he should eat.. I hope he does.
