Emptying out my 300

I'm going to leave the hobby for awhile. Probably will come back in a few years with a larger tank. Between my three jobs, I don't have the time to take care of it properly.

Fish: Most of them eat nori, flake, pellet, and frozen. The longnose will only eat nori and frozen. I have had most of them for a long time.

10" Naso Tang (over 5 years old) - $125
8" Clown Tang (over 5 years old, bought with Naso from another reefer years ago) $100
6" Powder Blue Tang (5 years old) - $75
6-7" Hippo Tang $50 (5 years old, has some of what my wife calls age spots) - $30
Yellow Longnose Butterfly (4-5 years old) - $20
4-5" Yellow Tang (he was beat up a bit a year ago and his fins haven't really grown back) - free w/purchase
Tomato Clown 2-3", Dottyback, 3 @ Anthias (not sure which ones - pink color), Royal Gamma, Pajama Cardinal - all for $40

Coral:

Hammer - 8 head frag - $30, 20 head rock - $50
Frogspawn - 7 head frag - $25
Bubble - $20
Branching Frogspawn 6+" - $25
Cotton Candy Zoas - branching rock with 30+ heads - $30, 20+ heads $20
Huge Green Cup 10+" - $40
Galaxy - $20
Torch - 3 heads - $10
Something called Chili Pepper Monti (I think) - $10

Crabs and Snails:

Probably 20 hermits and 10-12 snails. There may be a few emeralds left and Chitons and Porcelain crabs. These are all free to the person that buys the last bit of livestock.

And the rock: All from BRS - all soaked for 3 months in a lanthanum solution to soak up phosphates. Ben in salt water for 11 months now. Some pieces have started growing coraline. I tried to do my best to quarantine everything, but somehow still ended up with some bubble algea and 2 aptasia. I THINK all of the bubble algea is gone after purchasing a bunch of emeralds about 6 months ago. I did see today that there is one aptasia left. That just ****es me off.

20 lbs shelf
20 lbs brach
120 lbs punaki

$3/lb or all for $300


The fish might be tough to catch with all of the rock still in place. If at all possible I would like most of this to happen on the same day. But... we will see what kind of interest we have.

I live off of I-17 and Dixileta - a few miles north of I-17 and the 101. You will need to bring your own containers. Once all of the livestock is gone, I will put up an equipment thread.

I don't have any pics of the longnose.... guess I cleaned out my photobucket a while back. I am cleaning the glass now. I can have pics later tonight.
 
That is an old pic BTW - at least 2 years old cause I had sand then.

Oh, and no nipping at all from the longnose.
 
Would like clown, dottyback, anthias, gramma, cardinal.

Also branching frogspawn.

Could use the crabs & snails and would be willing to pay for them.
 
Someone texted me to reserve the torch, 8 head hammer, 7 head frogspawn, and chili pepper monti.

And Lower Unit wants the branching frogspawn, so this is what I have left for coral:

Hammer - 20 head rock - $50
Bubble - $20
Cotton Candy Zoas - branching rock with 30+ heads - $30, 20+ heads $20
Huge Green Cup 10+" - $40
Galaxy - $20

I have interest in the 20 head hammer rock and the Green Cup, but not confirmed yet.
 
ok I took a bunchof pictures last night, but apparently my fish did not want to stand still. Whenever I get close to the tank they assume they are being fed and just go nuts. The video came out ok, but I will have to figure out how to post it.

In the meantime, I want to try to get rid of the rock as soon as possible. It is going to make it really tough to get the fish out. Let's say $200 for all 160 lbs of it. This is REALLY nice very light rock. The 120 lbs of punaki is like more than 200 lbs of regular rock.
 
Rock pending pickup.

Lmart wants the cleaner shirmp - need to know when you want to pickup
LowerUnit wants the fish bundle and branching frogspawn - need to know when you want to pickup
Most of the coral is being picked up with the rock today.

This is what I have left:

10" Naso Tang - $100
8" Clown Tang - $75
6" Powder Blue Tang - $75
6-7" Hippo Tang - $25
Yellow Longnose Butterfly - $20
4-5" Yellow Tang - free w/purchase

Bubble - $20
Galaxy - $20
Ricordea - $20 (4 green polyps each on a frag plug)
Acan - $20 (no idea what kind - 10+ heads)
Misc. Frags (2 browned out and I don't remember what they were) - $5 each
