My around 3" yellow tang is for sale. 350 can which is around 290 us. I am not really into selling fish but I am not into having a fish worth that much. Will make sure he goes to a good home. Kijiji add has been up for over a month and no inquiries. No worries.

I don’t understand. That’s a $35 fish, why are you worried about having an inexpensive fish?

Cheapest I've seen a yellow tang since Hawaii shut down is 225.
Captive bred are $115. I'm just saying the yellow tang has been a $35 fish for years, when this was purchased it was probably $35. Why worry about it? Only reason to sell now.... honestly.... is to get in while they're hot... sell at the peak to make money. (which I totally get)

Ah yeah totally lost that in the text lol, but definitely. Mine are $30 petco ones from years ago and not giving them up now just because they went up in price, feel lucky to have them if anything.

A guy 50 miles from me had 2 up for 400 can each. The posting is down. Did he sell them?..maybe. I payed 125 can a year ago. If I get an offer over 250 can I will probably sell. There is much more to the hobby than a Yellow Tang and only to a good home. Ya.

Well as I said ..posting on Kijiji is up over a month and no offers so probably will not even sell him. Will never get another yellow damsel. I had one for at least 6 years as a guess. He passed around 2 months ago and never found him. They are just too aggressive and territorial. Lemon peal Angel would be a good alternative for me.

I wasn't kidding when I said the Ricordea was large. The box is about 5.5" wide, and when the coral is flat, it nearly reaches both sides. It seems to have recovered nicely from being pried off the rock. Now to convince it to stay on a rock of my choosing.
