Copella vilmae for free

[martin_c]

Hello,
I'd like to give away 4 Copella vilmae (3 male, 1 female) for free, asasp. They are beautiful. I'll try to post a video later today.
I can send them within Germany, but that would be €50.

I have them in 450L currently, but the level of aggression by the males not only to the same species (also towards females) but to all fish in the tank (Apistogrammas) is so high that i just want to get rid of them.

i hope they will find a new home.

I'm only 75km from you, but have no tankspace right now, as I just added some new additions. Dang... just 2 weeks earlier and I'd have probably taken them.

Put up ads on aquariumforum[dot]de? There usually fish are placed in new homes quite quickly.
If in doubt, no chance of a store taking them in?

@MacZ Thanks for the advice. You're right, i could just give them to the local store. I was hoping that here i find someone who would really appreciate them though.

Obviously. I myself recently had to rehome some fish I raised from juveniles since January. I was not very pleased to give them away, especially not to two different stores, but the alternative would have been (more) bloodshed (I lost one of them first, that was the moment I decided it's time to split them up). So I bit the bullet and gave them away except one.

Yea, i know what you mean. Just last week i gave some offspring of A. diplotaenia and Betta persephone to Unter-Wasser-Freiburg because of the same reasons (in AKZ there was no demand for the diplos).
I chose that store because i think there they are in good hands and also quickly find customers due to selling fish online.

I got my Nannostomus from Unter-Wasser. Good store for sure.

Can be closed. They are at the local store now.
