Rehoming Botia kubotai in Michigan?

Hello all,

I am new to this forum, but have been using Loaches online to research as much as possible when I got my tank.

Due to personal circumstances, I am moving from Royal Oak, MI to Tampa, FL. My 5 Botia kubotai have a special place in my heart, but I don't want to put them through the stress of moving 1,200 miles... nor do I want to give them to a pet store... I basically set my tank up around these little guys and I want them and my 1 clown pleco to go to a good home.

What's the best method of rehoming fish and finding someone that will be more likely to take good care of my fishies? I don't know of any local aquarium forums, any suggestions?

Pictures to come...
