Wanting a Sargassum/Red Tail Trigger

Joel Schommer · Feb 21, 2019

I'm looking for a 2"-4" Sargassum/Red Tail Trigger fish and can't seem to find any for sale. Anybody know of a reliable fish store or person that would happen to be selling one and could also ship?

Thanks

I worked at Absolutely Fish for a long time... Great store...

FYI, i think I saw a pink tail up on Liveaquaria today but didn't note the size...

Diver's Den currently has a 6" one, if that helps.

Did you! I frequented that store (I think it had a different name, though cannot recall what it was) and Reef Encounter for many years. When did you work there? Wonder if we met LOL.

You will never find one in that size range, those guys always come in around 5" or more, rarely under.

That would be nice. Too bad I get the crappy weather in Nebraska. Ha

It was Aquatropics before Bill sold the place to Pat. I worked there for about a year before it changed hands and then through college. I was curator of the freshwater section for a couple years during that time. Even once I got my first "real job" I would work weekends or the midnight madness sales.
