Ending Tropical fish keeping

Over the last twelve months fish numbers have fallen, were quite content to let that continue.
However, problems with the filter/pump - its noisy despite cleaning the impeller - means having the tank will be ended sooner than later.
What's the best method to find a new home for the fish?
I could take them to Maidenhead Aquatics - but somehow I'd prefer if they could all go together somewhere!??
The fish - 2 large golden loaches, 5 Lemon Tetras, 4 Glowlights, and 1 Odessa Barb
Currently all living in a 4' tank.

I'd ask on a tropical fish forum if any enthusiast wanted them. Then you have a good chance of someone who knows what they are on about getting them.0

There is a section on Practical fishkeeping for fish and tanks etc for sale..Here it is
http://forum.practicalfishkeeping.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=225
obviously you would need to join if not already a member but they have a lot of members who are decicated to the welfare of fish so I can't think of a better forum.0 -
I advertised mine on here when I didn't want to keep them anymore.

Someone came quite a way to get them but they'd been healthy for so long I hated the idea of them going somewhere that they wouldn't be cared for properly.0
