Free Cyclichthys orbicularis (Birdbeak Burrfish)Long Island, NY

Post by Nick on Tue May 20, 2008 9:11 pm

Title says it all. Dumped in bucket on my doorstep, more or less. A coworker took it from a customer at his store, where they don't even have a salt water system. She got ich immdiately on being added to the one at my store (one of the new fish brought it in last wed Sad) I'm not letting them put her into the uncycled "hospital" tank, I call it the death tank because basically everything we put in there dies, so she's being treated for SW ich at a spare tank at my house cycled with an old well used filter. I'm in Flanders, near Riverhead on eastern Long Island. She's about 3.5 inches long, a baby, but will grow to a foot and need about a 75 gallon tank. She eats well and actively explores, as well as being unafraid of people and hands in her tank as long as you move slowly. She's also an "easy" puffer, she has inflated twice already. This adorable little girl is free to anyone who wants to pick her up, can meet me anywhere from here to NYC, or willing to pay the 50-80 dollars overnight shipping would cost.

Look at her sad little face, she needs a mommy or a daddy to take care of her.
This is a copy of the post I made bout her on the puffer forum.
