Temporary fish rehoming

[Hunna]

Hi there! Unfortunately my 40b has crashed, and chose to do so at the most inopportune time. I was able to save most of the smaller corals in there by throwing them into my bedroom tank before I left for the beach, and then a few more once I got back. Everything else is lost though, aside from the 4 fish.

And when it rains, it pours and I was served papers for a custody change by my ex. Which means trying to get this tank back up and running can’t and won’t be a priority until after all of this is over.

There are paired up clowns (large standard ocellaris and small snowflake), an orchid dottyback, and a Fiji Blue damsel. Is there anyone that might be able to take these fish for the next month or so until I’m able to figure out what went wrong and get things sorted out? All 4 are super healthy aside from the slight tail damage that’s fully healed on the dottyback from introducing the Fiji blue. The clowns I’ve had for a year or more and the dottyback for 6+ months.

I have plenty of frozen/flake/pellet food to give to whoever takes this on, and can pay you with a few coral frags once I’m ready to pick them back up. My 4 year old is pretty attached to “purple fishy” and the snowflake clown, so if I could at least get the clowns and orchid dottyback covered I’d be ok with selling the Fiji blue damsel. Thanks!

I’m not in a position to help with the fish, but wanted to say keep your head up (on both fronts).

I'm sure someone will step up, but I have a 20L sitting empty that I'm happy to set up and provide a home for at least a few of them if need be. Not a problem at all. And I have plenty of rock and sand to move into it so it would be ready to go immediately. Just let me know!

So here's my tank. Waterbox 220.6. I believe it's 6ft long if that helps.

Fish wise I have 2 small clowns, a blue damsel, 2 bengal cardinals, a fiji foxface and a sailfin tang that are practically attached to one another. There is also a possibility that a carpenter wrasse is in there but I haven't seen him in about a week or so.

If you think any of them would do well in my tank I'd be more than happy to hang onto them for a bit. I've been the child in your situation so I know what you're dealing with right now. Good luck.
