How do you find a fish a new home?

So all of those who havnt heard, I have WAY too many sharks in my tank and theyre feeling cramped and territorial. This is something I didnt realize i was doing when I got them. Anyways, the pet store that I bought them from will not take them back. How would I go about finding these guys good homes?

you could ask friends/family/co-workers/etc.. put flyers up where you can.. maybe even post an ad at sites like craigslist.

Find out if there is a local aquarium club in your city and go and take them there and see your luck.

If you have a Petco nearby, they take donated fish.

I have a petco about 20 miles from here but that might be a little traumatic for my fish...or would it?

Re: How do you find a fish a new home?

they should be alright. when we got fish at the local petco, that was about 10 miles away.. and we'll be transporting fish 1800 miles before long. if you have a cooler you can put them in after bagging and use towels to keep the bags in place, you can close it all the way or almost all the way to reduce stress and try to keep it from moving too much - either with someone holding it or wedging it between seats, etc.
