Last summer i went on vacation to Europe for three weeks. While I was gone, a snail got stuck in the return line, the tank flooded, fresh water from the auto-top off system rushed in and dropped salinity causing a mass die-off of my hard-grown corals. Fish survived, so dejected, I carried on. But it's been one calamity after another, the latest being a dead skimmer, and I'm through.
(Doesn't help that my kids, who were super into the tank, now consider it a nuisance...)
I have a ton of high-end equipment, and I have to decide whether to stash it away for another try when the time is right or sell. But of more pressing concern is the welfare of my two remaining fish, a designer clownfish and a Benggai cardinaldish (both tank bred).
I'd offer up what's left of my coral (mushrooms and zoas), except that while everything was dying off, an ugly green polyp infested the tank out of god knows where, while gsps invaded the other half. Anyone that comes and takes my fish can take a look and take what they want. I even have some rastas, even if they are struggling to pop through a cyano infestation (did I mention calamities?).
I'm not looking to make money from this, but I do want proof that the fish will go to a good home. I'm concerned about their welfare, poor things. In other words, they are free, but prove to me they are going to a good home (such as picture of your tank thread).
I'm in Berkeley, near the Ashby BART station. Thanks!
