Like I said free. Only catch is he probably has marine velvet and needs to be QT. Only take him if you are willing to QT and bring him back to health. If no takers in 2 days I am gonna chuck my 14 gallon fresh water setup and make it into a QT. Pick up in Adelanto. LMK in advance so i can catch him, but it shouldnt really be that hard.

I'd take him, but I don't have a big enough tank up and running for QT... Wonder how it would do in my FOWLR with a 3 inch valentini puffer and a small eel...

I wouldnt if I were you to be honest. I am pretty sure its marine velvet and you would probably infect the other fish, but being a FOWLR you maybe able to just QT the whole tank. I think its best to have a seperate QT tank.

Hey Luis sorry about your fish. With my gout attack being 2 weeks plus I couldnt maintain the tank now this poor guy has a bug. I got my 14 gallon broken down and set up as a QT but I need to let it sit over night with that crappy oceanic skimmer and maybe I can get him in tomorrow morning.

I really don't want to treat the whole FOWLR. At least half the rock belongs to my buddy who got me into the reef hobby... I'm holding it for him until he gets his own house and sets up a reef tank again... How big a QT would I need? I have a few tanks sitting empty, and I have some coppersafe from when I treated my clowns for ich.

Good luck man. Glad you decided to keep him, since my wife said 3 tanks is all she can take without stressing out, even if the QT would only be temporary. And since she's 6 months pregnant, I figure it's best to not stress her out.
