mappa puffer

Slack, I have tried not to flame you in the various threads, but...
That puffer looks half dead, and based on the morbid survival rate of your fish there is no reason to believe that this one will make it. Not to mention that a dying puffer can poison the rest of your tank. Anyone who pays more than $.50 for that fish is getting taken for a ride. Bag up that fish and take him to any LFS and drop him off for nothing. It will probably still die but at least then it will not be eaten alive by all those triggers.
Good luck with the rest of your tank.
BTW, it was pretty shady that you took a separate pic of a healthy puffer when you tried to sell this guy in the deleted thread.

Well its better than having a bunch of fish die and this one too. Maybe they can hold it for you and when you get your 500 you can put him back into the tank and have a huge show fish......that sounds like the best plan yet to me.
agree
just dont want his bio load otherwise he been good 2 other fisheven the little puffer swims by him

Exactly what I said, Crimz.
I try to take your side in most of your threads, Slack, because people do call you names when you do not. However, this time, you did try to deceive people by first trying to sell a very stressed fish and then by jacking the price up to $200 when you paid nothing.

My tank is too small. But I think someone with a big tank will have no problem paying $100 for it.

Slack, you are being whiner. You took on the responsibility of this fish with the knowledge that you really do not need any other fish in your tanks. You even said so yourself, that you can't handle the bioload. You know as well as we do that you wouldn't be able to handle the bioload of a 7" fish either, especially not a messy one like a puffer. Stop trying to sell it and see if the LFS will keep if for you until you upgrade. Everyone here is trying to tell you this over and over and you are not listening. Stop being hard-headed. It is very frustrating and a waste of everyone's time, especially yours.

If you can't find a buyer just donate it to your LFS. Or you might even get some store credit for it.

Well if you can't find a LFS that wants him then just massive water changes for another couple months until you upgrade would have been my other suggestion. That way you can keep him. You may be dealing with a few other deaths in your tank with more fish though.

If you find someone to pay more than a quarter for this fish, please let me know. I have lots of stuff I'd sell for the right price to your "customer". Maybe he'd like some old cell phones I have.
