FREE- Looking for New Big home for my Blue Powder Tang

My Power Blue Tang has been living in my 80 gallons for a while but now I think it is getting unhappy. Because my tank has so much liverocks, it is unable to swim around freely and I think it is start to show stress. It is very healthy and active right now but it started to develop ick and I think that is a sign of stress. I rather give it to a good home then keeping it in my tank, knowing it is not happy. I love it so much but I need to give it away to someone who willing to house her. Someone with at least 125g or bigger tank. Please let me know if you want to adopt my Powder blue Tang. It's very healthy, active and playful. Please let me know if you have any questions. Please do not response if your tank is less than 125g.
Again, it does has very few ick on its body now.
It's about 5inches or bigger
Thanks.

These pics below I just took a few mins ago.

Nice fish.

Hopefully it will go to someone who wants to give it a good home, and not just because it's free

Like everyone said: a very beautiful fish.
Sad to see you sell it. Hopefully it goes to a good home.

You have a cute little red fish too, sitting on the rock in the first pic(couldn't remember its' name)

I have a 210 and been looking for a healthy powder blue and its looking like you are keeping LPS, so I like to take the Tang if its still available and give you a large healthy buble coral in return

He said it is FREE.

I would love to keep him in my 375g but my tank is already full.

I think clown tangs, purple tangs and powder blues all need larger than 100 gallon tanks, unless they're the only tang in the tank. If you want to keep tangs in a small (100 gallon) tank, please consider the bristletooth family. Chevrons, tominis etc...
