Ouch. That's not really a "free fish".

It’s a fish you get to buy hard corals for or get the pleasure of watching it slowly die.

Obligatory hard coral eater. The fact is, the seller shipped a fish and doomed it to death as the OP doesn’t have a SPS reef.

Yup. That's what I was saying by "free fish". It is actually a very expensive fish if a person has a big heart and wants to keep it. Will get very expensive feeding it.

Here’s the other, hopefully the OP reads. That one is hardy but will be difficult for him to have corals. I assume a frag is no match.

It’s likely a bait and switch assuming he didn’t get 5 butterflies sent but maybe?

The website shows a copperband and, long nose, and spot band and he said that is what he ordered in another thread.

Hey guys, I'm going to my lfs, do you think I could get good money for some coral or something. I'm not keeping them, this is a reef tank. My lfs owner like me I think.

The only person that can answer that would be the LFS owner/worker. They might not want them or they might jump on them.

She want me to release them into the ocean"Ahh Oh no, is he still in the bag the auriga? You can ship him back I can provide a label or if you have the ocean nearby? I can send you a reef safe B/F replacement Monday"
That fish will die if you release locally and if you got caught doing it you could get in some legal trouble. Please take it to your LFS and let them take care of it. Even if you get nothing for it, it still deserves a chance to live.
