Nothing to trade, but if you are going to the auction I'd be interested in buying him outright from ya.

I don't think I am going to have him that long. Trying to get rid of it as soon as possible. All my other fish in the tank are 3in and under.  I want my champs to be the dominate fish In the tank. I donk know what I was thinking...it is a cool fish but way to big for the tank right now. I posted on here for to give everyone a shot at it, but if no one replays I'm probably gonna take it to the LFS.

Once your champs mature they will be the dominant fish in the tank... Plus once they are full grown that ahli could fit in the mouth of one so that's just some food for thought.

No problem. I'd like to get him but Livonia is a bit of a drive for just one fish. Thanks anyway hope you find him a good home.

This is very true, thanks for that prospective. It's not like he is aggressive toward anything, but he is double the size of anything in the tank, I'm just worried something might come up missing.

Fryeri generally are not aggressive but I do not know much about these white ones.  Expect your champs to get up to 7 or 8 inches by spring they grow somewhat quickly once they get to a certain size.  You may also want to start planing from a bigger tank a 125 is a bit small for these guys.
