f/s: Blond naso Tang

hi folks, im selling a decent sized Blond Naso Tang for $100. it's been through a 5 week QT in Hyposalinity & continues to be eating like a pig. He never showed any signs of ich, but I just decided to perfrom a "cleansing" of my tank after I converted to FOWLR. I still have my system on Hypo (going for 6-8 weeks here) & I decided to keep medium to smaller types of live stock.

its about 7" & is very plump.

local pick up in East Meadow. send me a PM if you want pctures

please consider the size of your system before jumping on this guy.

That's the fish I want, but I have a Naso (smaller, no streamers, not blond) in my tank now that would need a new home. I'm relatively certain they would not get along.

Oh, listen to you. I'm trying to figure out how to keep both, I doubt they will live happily in my tank together. I do have the sump to separate them, if need be.
Dex, please send me pix DgenR8 @ ReefCentral.com (remove the spaces)

Dex,
I want him. I'll try them together. If need be, I'll put my Naso in my sump while I look for a new home for him. I've wanted a fat, happy streamer Naso for a long time.
How soon do you want to move him out?

I hope you're taking precautions to guard against ICH. I know you don't want to go through that again. Stocking like you mention above is the first ingredient, though......

Had no choice in the matter. The fish were becoming homeless. The PB has been in captivity for awhile so im crossing my fingers he doesnt live up to his ick magnet reputation. I will be feeding garlic as a precaution.
Also when you put your 2 together do expect a little aggression at first. That usually ends in a day or 2.

Larry,
anytime you want him is kewl, sooner the better though. I want to add a Choco Tang & dont need stress factors to go along with it.

Sorry Liana, Larry has a bigger home.
