    I have the following fish looking for good homes (freebies). Not to be used as feeder fish please.

    - some of my sunset wagtail platy offspring (tank bred). sexually mature (pregnant females), not fully grown out yet. My adult females are particularly large platys.
    Reason for giving them away: population explosion (they’re livebearers, what can I say)

    - 6 neon tetra from the 65L.
    Reason: I’ve had them for a couple of months but the neons have just not stolen my heart, would like to go for something else. They spawn regularly. Hoping they’ll find a new home.

    Will soon have White Cloud Mountain Minnows available (pond bred), they just need to grow out more.

    Collection only, Rondebosch

    I'm wanting more neon tetras for my tank! I got 1 neon in a batch when I bought cardinals from perky pets by accident and none of us noticed so he just slipped through and got into m it tank but I feel bad for it because its just all by itself and thinks its a cardinal tetra now so I was actually going to go and buy more this weekend for it hahaha! Could I please get the 6 neons:):):)

    Have another 30 or so White Cloud Mountain minnows to give away (pond bred), have taken on adult colouration now. Have already given away to 5 people.

    Can give away more platies.

    Would dig to get a few sometime if that's cool? Only really looking for 5 WCM to bump up the dwindling school after several jumpers. Duckweed seems to have solved that problem but I'll probably get some lids cut soon.
    No rush, but will drop you a PM sometime soon? Appreciate it :)

    Darn it, just came from your side now. Would have loved a few for my tank.

    Yes a couple of platys (not many- perhaps 3 at the moment) and some White Cloud Mountain minnow juvies (10-15 cause I’ve promised some to someone else).
    PM me if you’re interested

    Platys and minnows have been taken.
    Growing out more minnows from the pond if anyone else is interested, should take another couple of weeks.
