    I have a few fish I would like to sell.
    Snow Flake Eel 10-12 inches long $15
    ChainLink Eel around 25-30 inches long $20
    Undulated Trigger 4-5 inch $15
    Red Scorpion Fish 7-8 inches long $20
    BlueChin Trigger 7-8 inches long blind in one eye but otherwise very healthy. $15
    They need to go to a good home only and won't be sold to anyone who's not experienced and cannot provide a proper home for them.
    My priority is a good home over money! 
    Would also trade for frags or reef safe fish.

    Quick question I have a 350gal fish tank with two lion fish, panther grouper, porcupine puffer and a 24-30" snow flake. Was your chain link in with your snow flake? What were you feeding? I might be interested.

    It is not in with the snow flake, It has attacked a snow flake in the past so I would not recomend it. It was kept with a large tang and the blue chin trigger and wasn't aggressive towards them. I'm feeding silversides sometimes shrimp if he would take it.

    Yes John is right. John got the Chainlink from me and it killed my snowflake. We are lucky my wife didn't kill it, she was very unhappy with me for attempting to put them together as was I. This eels teeth are large but it is very cool! I tore a 240 gallon tank completely down to get him out.

    I know the scorpion is gone but do you have any pictures? I wish I had a home for the chainlink but unfortunately I do not. Much too large for any of my tanks!

    Correction, I was curious as to why the Chain-link Eel I have didn't look like the pictures I found on the net...This one has teeth and the pictures of Chainlinks didn't have teeth...Thanks to LukFox on RC I now know it's a Undulated moray (Gymnothorax undulatus). Must be pretty rare in the trade because I can't find one for sale.

    I wonder if the undulated woud get along with my 7" undulated? Right now it's in with the Blue Chin and has been for since I got it. I also had my Vlamingii Tang in there for a couple months until I decided to put it back in my main display. If you want it you can have it.  
    Are you talking about Undulated Eel or Trigger?

    I am talking about a trigger. I think it would be cool to have them pair up but I don't think that they do it. It sounds like in the wild they don't pair up either.
