    We have a jumbo (11"+) Sailfin tang that we would like to trade for SPS frags/colonies (preferably ORA acros). He is as healthy as a horse and is in our 280 (he will need to be in a tank of 200+ gallons as he is the largest sailfin I've ever seen). We want to rehome him because of our concern that with his size he will be fragging corals as they grow out. Would consider cash of $75 but prefer trade. We are in the Des Moines area.

    Haha... I can't say that I disagree Dave! Don't tempt me, I was already debating it but my schizo whale of a fox face is already helping me frag as it is :/

    Eric I don't really think you realize how big he is... it needs swimming room and if your tank that your thinking you can put him in by itself isn't a 75g then I would wait... honestly the 220 imo will be to small. I really hope someone with a large tank takes him
