OK well its not a super fire sale....I got the leak to a drip with some under water epoxy. My non reef ready 5' 120g has a leak at the seam. I would rather trade/sell sooner then later. I will be busy plowing tonight thru ???, sales would be Thursday night at the earliest. Its a fully established reef since 2006.

I would entertain a trade for around a 60g cube so I could keep some things. I run a FO 125g, but its in no shape to house my coral/rock/fish(Bad algea/aptasia/etc).

Corals first. Pics later...want to get it rollin.

FISH and ANEMONE's

Mated Pair of GSM's (these were purchasded from John (Uberfrags) himself in 2006. Both misbared, awesome pair....hate to part with. $80(i paid $90) these will come with whatever rock you want with some BTA's on it....its a garden, hard to tell which one is stuck where.

Clean up crew is still in the air...I will update later.

I'm gonna work on pics... but gotta sleep some, gotta get up at 2am to plow. PM will work or here. Leave email for specific pics if not up yet. Equipment will be listed later after I start moving some coral. LR is not being sold(yet) unless attached are the corals. Again I might be interested in keeping a smaller reef and keep some things, depends on the offers. Thanks for your patience as work calls first(hopefully the tank holds out =p )
 
Thats a full tank shot, not sure if you can view every pic......Some of those are very old and not available if you can view all. Please forgive my camera's ability, and my ability to use a camera =).
 
Bta,s with the Mated pair....best I could get. http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l201/stallion811/th_firesale018.jpg

The monti in the middle, I know it looks bleached, but is pink and getting some good PE now after coming back. Multi colored Trumpet in pic also. The Tonga branch just came outta bleach / cooking, thats why its white. I've got alot of rock, some cooking , some to bleach and cook. SOME will be for sale, but not NOW. Gotta straight my stuff out and see if I'm gonna try a smaller reef 1st. No rock in this tank is for sale unless hooked to coral for sale. It will go to my 125 to jump start cycle, after I bleach the tank.

I can get more pics, ask for specifics, I'm not a photographer. If my prices are outrageous...screw U....J/K, shoot an offer, my tank is currently LEAKING. There is a minor bubble algea in the tank, but not horrid. I would be interested in trades for a smaller cube style tank(RR) and keeping some smaller pieces. I will have some equipment, but not till I decide to get another tank, or stay with one(equipment is ALL HOB). I do have more coral in my 125, but it has algea and aptasia issuues. If you want something outta that tank....buy at your OWN RISK, it will be cheap as I will just bleach the rock/tank.

Thanks and happy reefing(if your seals are good).
 
Will do Johnike...... I should be able to get back to folks by Wednesday early afternoon to evening if any interest. I will post possible/probable equipment for sale, and any fish I need to move from my 125g FO, as I will be bleaching the entire system, restarting with LR from the 120g and whats cooking downstairs. I'm limited with QT space.

Prices are OBO, and interested in trades for a smaller tank. Remember this tank is currently LEAKING, I don't want to drag it out a month. I will be talking to local petstores by the weekend.
 
EQUIPMENT(available after all is livestock is sold)

Non RR 120g 60"x18"x26" leaking on the front left seam. Tank was new in 2001 I believe. Might be all glass? bought at Petsmart. Tank has scratches, but if one to were reseal, the back might be fairly scratch free? Comes with store bought stand in fair condition(sucks for sump system if tank can be drilled). Middle top brace was scorched from my T5's laying on it, but still intact for 4-5 years like it. I'll go $200 on tank and stand.....a bit high, but I might just keep as a lizard tank for the kid?

Large CPR HOB fuge, with newer pump. Bought used had a crack, repaired with epoxy and silicone. Running for 5-6 years like this. $75 ( no light used a clip on cfl)

C&C marine 125 HOB skimmer. Its a beast. If I ran an ATO, would even be better. Similar to Octo 800 and SWC HOB. PSK 2500 is newer, but the pump intake and volute is original. $80

Mag 18 pump I bought used here a while ago.... never used. Opened an the impellar magnet is sand chewed, also the motor magnet feels chewed. I will put back together and test for noise. $20

Oceanus Neptune top off, was gonna use on my 125, never tried it. $25 not sure if it works. I can test if needed.

Might sell my Catalina aqua T5HO 60" 6x80W fixture. 1 ballast is out, it runs 3 workhorse 7's(led moonlights out also/no legs). $80 firm, as I can dismantle and use the ballasts as backup for my 125g.

Might have some various Koralia for sale? Gotta check my PH inventory.

FISH

I have a Porc Puffer I need to sell from my 125g. He's in copper now, might as well let me finish 14 day treatment for S&giggles. 9 days left. $30

I might sell 1 of the following. Emperor Angel in Furan 2 for fin rot. Just bought 2 weeks ago. Red Coris wrasse. Both fish r 4" approx, both changing color. I would like too keep both, but I also have a large volitan I will keep. Depending on the sale and tank space available, I might not be able to keep all 3. These will be offers only.

Thanks for looking.
 
Cant send a pm to you? Sorry I didnt get back, you are correct, it would have been for the tank in the sale thread...now leaking. Sorry Bigcapct.
 
I have a 60 cube - I would work out a trade for corals on it or could sell it. Let me know. Today is not the best day, but I will be around during the day tomorrow. Its in good shape except its kind of dirty as I have not gotten around to cleaning it out since I broke it down (its too cold to get it out and use the hose - lol)
 
Actually - now that I think about it, if you wanted to pick it up today, I could be available for that. I just don't have time to do anything with corals, but since your tank is leaking I thought you might want to pick it up and get going.

Just shoot me a pm - I am working from home today
 
Neon GSP= SOLD
Clam= SOLD
PDeaths=Gone
10H R/G Trumpet=Gone

No need for tank now, Kawicivic has me covered.

Trying to push large Kenya now $25, and Show trumpet, send offers.

I'll be keeping a few pieces, but most fish need to go. Offers folks. I should have the replacement 60 cube running by next weekend. Its RR and alot different sized.... looking for 24" lights, return pump(waiting on drain size), in sump skimmer for 80g total approx, and an ato(love my tsunami).
 
I have you covered Mike....should be available very soon.

I'm hoping to do the swap tomorrow night, or the next. Tank is getting worse, going thru some towels now.

Here is what is left.....

Large Kenya $25( pending pick up)
Large Trumpet $100/OBO (pending pickup)
Leathers(4)$10per
Kenya tree frags $1 per(most unmounted or plucked from rock)
Damsels $free I think I will keep the yellow tail
3 Occy's bonded pair, 3rd wheel that gets along, will split $make offer

I will have more coral available after I make the switch, but it wont survive long as it will run in the leaky 120 with lights and powerheads only 1/2 full. I might have to bring to petstore if not quick.

I'll update in a few days.

Hi Steven,

Can i have the kenya tree frags and free damsels? I can pick up anytime you want me to. My tank is better now with 18 gal fuge and 20 gal sump (live rock rubble and cheato). 24 snails and crabs alll living and work hard too. Water very stable. so it should be good.

Thanks again.
Mike.
 
Yeah Mike... the damsels r urs.... gotta wait till the day of the switch... Can have the kenya also. The skimmer and fuge should be good to go when the fish r. I'll let u know.

Candy cane ....SOLD
Large Kenya SOLD

THANKS.....this makes it managable......Come get them clowns folks..... BTW my breeding pair GSM fell through..... Back up for sale........nice stuff.
 
Forgot to add, I will give some bta's with the breeding pair GSM.....Just want them to a good home.

I'm also willing to trade for black occy's.... Want one misbar black and maybe a snowflack or black ice. Looking to make a mixed pair.

Thanks.
