FS Rhinopias Sp.

[myerst22]

I have a Rhinopias that i have had for about 6 months and need to find him a home. Pics below. Wanting to add some smaller fish but they will become lunch for the Rhino. I have gone back and forth on whether it's a Frondosa or Aphanes, but leaning towards Frondosa. He's about 4 1/2"+. The fish is trained to feed directly out of a net and shakes and hopes as soon as net enters the water. Asking $300 neg. Pickup only or I will meet you. I was in the fish business years ago but don't want to get involved in shipping. I am located on the east end of Long Island. E-mail is the best way to contact me. [email protected] Thanks Tim

Awesome looking Rhinopias! Did you ever get rid of the Lion Fish?

 

[myerst22]

Yes the Lion is in a 300. Very happy about that. Should live a long happy life. I would say that a Min sized tank would be around 36" long. They don't swim at all just walk slowly around and wave like a leaf. He does do quite a hop like gig when he sees the net hit the water. Again the price is negotiable. Dinner time. Regards, Tim

I'll offer to give the Rhinopias a ride to NYC if anyone wants him.
I think I live about 15 minutes away from Tim, I could bring it in on a saturday morning.
you would have to meet me downtown around noon for pickup, and all payment would have to be arranged ahead of time. I'm not handling any money :lol:

Hello all. Sorry for the delay in response. Really busy with work. Thanks for the offer jhale! Very kind of you. There are a few people interested so let me know if anyone else is. I am giving my father a ride to Islip Airport this Saturday afternoon if that helps with delivery for anyone. I am going to give this guy a new home this weekend regardless. Thanks again, Tim

I think he's a frondosa.

I agree frondosa. Its none of my business, but if you can work something out with Domboski, you can rest assured it will live a long and healthy life.
