I have a 55 gallon tank I have decided to break down. I think I am going to take a break from the hobby for a while. I want to part with the livestock first. The main items are as follows:
- Percula clown ~2.5" $35
- cleaner shrimp $15
- Duncan coral - $200 my centerpiece. It is a beautiful fluorescent green with about 40 heads. When fully open it is about 6-7" diameter.
- Frogspawn coral- $150 about 50 heads. About 7+ " when fully open
- Fluorescent green Sinularia (?). $50 About 6" tall, two stalks. Really nice.
- Kenyan tree coral (?). $35 When open it is about 4".

The tank also has a ton of clam and mini brittle stars (largest they grow to about 1.5" diameter). The rock will be sold after the livestock is gone. As you can see from the pictures it is nearly all covered with grass. I think it is turtle grass. Nothing eats it. Apparently some folks pay for this stuff. It will obviously go with the rock when I sell the rock. I have no ideas on prices for this stuff these days so PM and make some offers. I know the Duncan and Frogspawn will generally sell for $10-15 a head so one could consider buying these and breaking them apart if you wanted to make some cash. I just want to sell the colonies as a whole, so I'm open to offers. I believe I have about 50-60lbs of rock in there that is made up of about 5 or 6 large rocks.

Yeah...I can't get rid of it. I don't have a refugium which I am sure would help the issue. Like I said though, other people pay for the stuff, so I guess it is all a matter of what one likes. The brittle stars and mini snails seem to love hanging out in the stuff. It definitely adds color between the green grass and purple rock.
 
Oh...and I have not added anything to this tank in two years. I have absolutely no Aiptasia and never had. As far as I know, I have no other pests that came in on the live rock either, so everything you get is healthy stuff. I do have a lot of copepods/amphipods swimming around, and like I said, the snails are breeding on their own which I assume is all a good sign of a healthy system. The Duncan started off as a three head frag. The frogspawn started off as a 5 or 6 head frag if I recall.
 
The frogspawn is sold pending funds. The Sinularia is also more-or-less spoken for.
I dropped prices a little on what is remaining. Anyone who comes is welcome to grab some snails as well. I also have a few red leg hermit crabs available.
- Percula clown ~2.5" $30
- cleaner shrimp $15
- Duncan coral - $160 my centerpiece. It is a beautiful fluorescent green with about 40 heads. When fully open it is about 6-7" diameter.
- Kenyan tree coral (?). $30 When open it is about 4".
 
Percula - $25

Once that is gone,
I'll have about 60# of rock
Euroreef skimmer (no pump)
Neptune Aquacontroller
and misc other odds and ends that folks can grab when they come to pick stuff up.
 
No interest in the following?
Percula - $25
shrimp $10
Sinularia fluorescent green $45
Kenya tree $20

I'd really like to find homes for these by the end of next week. Make me an offer!!!
