Various Fish : COLLECTION ONLY

I'm breaking my tropical tank down to use it as a marine tank. Most of the fish (I am keeping a few and setting up a smaller tank for them) and Eheim Pro 3 2073 will all need to be sold before I can start the conversion work. I will advertise the eheim once the fish have sold. Will also consider swapping some/all for a 24" all glass tank and hood (depending on make/condition).

Catfish:
1 x Magnum/Mango Plec (Baryancistrus sp.) (L047) £20
1 x Brachyrhamdia meesi £5
3 x Corydoras davidsandsi £10
5 x Centromochlus romani SOLD
1 x Rubbernose Plec (Chaetostoma sp.) £2
1 x Microsynodontis sp(1) SOLD

Non-Catfish:
5 x Asian Rummynose (Sawbwa resplendens) (1 x Males, 4 x Female) £10

Collection only from Reigate (RH2)

Hi Martin,
Keen on Centromochlus (assuming there's a female in the group)and the Microsynodontis, to go with my existing groups. I've got three male romani and would like to have a go at breeding them.

Problem is - no chance of me collecting, so unless we can find a way to get them up North its not going to work out.

I'll be at CSG Open Show in September if any Southern members are travelling up and could bring a few fish!

Cheers,
Mark.

I already have a group of them. If Martin wants to "lend" me a female or the whole group, I'll try to bring them when I next go up northways...

Hi Mark

Yes, there is definitely a female in the group, infact I think it is a female heavy group. I planned to swap some with Mats as he has the opposite, but never got round to it.
Not sure either...and am quite keen to move them all on sooner than later. Mats has offered to bring them - do you want all 5 or just a female? I am seeing mats in the next week or so as he is collecting some doras from me, if you can confirm how many, I'll let Mats take them away at the same time.

Cheers
Martin

Hi Mark
We seem have arranged the collection and delivery of your fish - do you want to confirm how many C.romani you want, as Mats is collecting them on Saturday?
Thanks
Martin

Guys,
Sorry I did't get back to you sooner, been away from the PC. Yes, I'll take the whole group (of Centromochlus), plus the Microsyno. Very grateful to you both for arranging a means to get them up to the CSG show! Martin, I'll contact you separately to arrange payment.

Cheers,
Mark.

Anyone else?
Am keen to get the tank stock sorted, am trying to source a smaller tank for the few fish I'm keeping which will allow me to start preparing it for the marine conversion.

I wish I could help you martin, but that collection point is a bit far for me :) I wish you find your fish a good home!

Thanks Nate, and yes me too.
New (smaller) tank is here, so may end up taking them to LFS for a bit of credit as have had no interest.
Shame really, but, as they say in France - c'est la vie!

I'm a bit short on tankspace at the moment. I've got some plans for expansion, but will not be ready soon enough, I'm afraid.
