Livestock is all gone!

 

 

It's time for me to graduate and sell this tank :'(

 

I'm located in Easton, PA (18042). It's about 1 hour from NYC and Philly. I don't know how to ship livestock, so local pick up only!

 

You can find pictures of all of the pieces in my tank thread and here (http://www.nano-reef.com/featured/_/2012/awpong-r66). Nothing has really changed since the tank was nominated as TOTM. A few of the colonies have gotten much larger, but I haven't been able to keep up with the extensive dosing requirements (20+ mL of Alk AND Ca). Therefore, some of the coloring has faded a little. Luckily, the colors pop right back after a water change.

 

Here is a photo I took a few days ago of the tank:

I would try to add individual pictures of each of my colonies, but there are too many and I lent my camera to my friend. That being said, if you really want to see what something looks like, just PM me.

• 2 Beautiful Large Ocellaris Clowns (3+ years old pair with a 3" long female) -- $40 No longer for sale, thanks to Deckoz2302 :)

Sad to see it go, but congrats on the graduation and good luck with your future endeavors, which will hopefully include another tank. :)

I wish you were not so far away and shipping was cheaper I would take the stand off your hands as well as some of the other equipment.

As much as I'm sad to sell my tank, everyone's comments have really cheered me up. I'm glad I was able to share my tank with y'all.

 

For those of y'all that have been contacting me about buying everything together, here are the discounted prices that I've been sending people:

 

All livestock: $650

All Equipment: $875

Everything!!!: $1300

 

The livestock and equipment prices are approximately 25% off the individual totals. Buying everything together is an additional 15% off buying all of the livestock and equipment.

 

I've received so many messages from potential buyers, that I am going to have to make a "first-come-first-serve list."

 

Buyers who are willing to buy in bulk, preferentially all of one category will get preference.

 

I will try and respond to everyone's messages as soon as possible.

I'm responding to PMs now, but I'd just like to remind everyone that I am not willing to ship livestock. Also, I will not be selling the equipment until all of the livestock is gone.

I'm flying from PA to TX, so that alone would be difficult but I'm also spending a month backpacking across Europe. Finally, I would have to move the tank again from Houston to San Antonio.

 

It would just be too difficult. I might keep some of the equipment, but the livestock has to go. I'm going to miss my fish the most. I've had them since the beginning and they've gotten so big.

 

Also, I've updated the first post with sales pending and already sold.

 

I would really like to find a buyer for my SPS and clam soon!

  • Whoever buys the clam will get lots of free rics (orange and yellow)
  • All SPS sales will also come with free frags (mostly zoas and other sps) While supplies last

I'd love this, but how would I get the clowns to you?

 

Also, I'm not sure how quickly I'd be able to rush back into reefing. Hopefully relatively soon, but it might end up being a few years.

Ill be in Philadelphia Wednesday. If you were talking a few months. To a year no problem. Either way let me know and we can exchange telephone numbers (had the same phone 14 years and don't plan on changing) so wherever whenever you are ready. Ill take good care of them. Ive had my clowns forever as well so I know how you feel

This is awesome, but is Wednesday the only time you'll be around in PA? That just so happens to be the worst day for me.

Yea have a meeting at one of our facilities then driving back to deleware. Im on a 3 week business trip. But I thought ahead and brought a quarantine tank as I had planned on visiting my old LFS pacific east aquaculture to pick up some colonies and clams. Then ill be heading back to raleigh nc on the 31st. Lol im terrible lol

 

Your OP says you need them gone bthe 20th? If you can work around that and can do the weekend of the 31st maybe that would be better or I dunno let me know. Send me a pm with your availability as im really limited to either this Wednesday or weekends
