Unfortunatley, i'm in a similar situation... it's all got too much (price wise) I think I need to either cut down on numbers of take a break from the hobby all together

If you offer them to your lfs you may not get anything for them and the lfs will sell them on. Why not put a post on Buy and Sell section and put exactly what you have available. Even if you only get a few pounds for them its better than nothing and they will probably end with a fellow enthusiast.

I just hate to learn that any of our members have to get rid of their fish.

One thing you can try is to contact someone in a local aquarium society. With a little luck, one of their members might take them. You would be sure they had a good home at least.

Here's a link to a list of aquarium societies in the UK:

There may be others, so if you don't find any near you, ask about them at an independent (not a chain store)
lfs. Even if the ones near you specialize in a kind of fish other than the ones you keep, they might be able to steer you in the right direction.
