  • Large Beautiful Fish FS - sold

    I tried to sell these guys a while back with no success, and I need them to go asap.  I guess there just aren't as many monster fish keepers here in Houston as there are in other parts of the country.  So, I am letting these go for next to nothing just to get them moved out of the tank.  I have taken a new professional turn and just don't have the time to care for them.  Please be prepared to bring your own large fish moving equipment.  You need not apply if you don't have a tank big enough to house them (i.e. 180 or more, though this is too small itself).

    Wild Caught Monoculous Peacock Bass 8-9" - $20


    Monoculous Peacock Bass 13-14" - $20


    Temensis Peacock Bass 14-15" - $20


    Niger Catfish 17-18" - $20


    Polypterus Endlicheri 11-12" - $40

    Is it possible to donate them to a bass pro shops or something like that?  They are so beautiful, surely somone must be able to help you with a new home?

      They need a higher temp than natives, and I don't think they would make it in a bass pro shops tank.  I think they should be able to sell at these prices, but I priced them too high before.  I also have them listed on monsterfishkeepers.com so hopefully that will help too.

          I would buy them in a heartbeat if I had a tank big enough... the Temensis looks beautiful. Very healthy fish ... Good luck with the sale!

            I'd give away every fish in the 300 on the porch and get them. but in the winter I can't get the temp above 74f on a 30f day. even with 6 -250 watt heaters. I would need a set up in the house. which I could do. but I have way to many projects with painting the fishroom and setting it up. the new 210 needs to be set up and plumbed. also the fauxrock background. moving the tanks over to the fishroom. waterchanging 600 gal. a week. OK some how I could make this work. Let me think on it over night.

                          Considering offers for all at once first as it will make it easier on me.  Will get back to individual requests if the sales for the group fall through.  Thanks for the interest.

                              'Dear Lord,' the minister began, with arms extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned face. 'Without you, we are but dust ...'
                              He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four-year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'
