FOR SALE: Frags / Rock / Fish from my tank

Vicki, I do have astreas and nassarius...if you need the astreas, this weekend would be the weekend to pick them up..but Sat morning isn't good (unless its early).
 
Snakemanvet...the yellow watchman is sold already (see a few posts above). The sump will most likely be sold with the tank and stand with all the plumbing..but I'm not there just yet.
 
Thank you all for the ones that came over tonight. There are still plenty of things to clear out. Zoos and tons of SPS.

Some that I forgot to list are:

Several kinds of zoos
Green Hyndaphora
Green Stylophora

gflat, here's a picture of the orange mystery SPS before neuroslicer cut the top of it out.

Thanks alot, Cody. I got some great stuff. That little brain is too cool. Guys, if you're in the market for some acro or digitata, check it out. If I had a halide setup, I would've racked up!

Colin

PS - I've heard that green slimer will do well under PC's... anyone have an opinion?
 
Tim, that would be perfect after 5:15-5:30...I think 2 others are already coming over tonight. Please bring bags and containers if you could. Thanks.
 
Can your live rock be placed in a brand new uncycled tank? I am just starting to set up my first marine aquarium, right now it is just 80 gallons of water. I would like to know how much for all 130 lbs of the live rock.
 
Cody,

I'll take a frag of the orange sps, too (maybe mille?). I'll get with luckyfish and see if he can be a transporter;).
 
fifamickey, Yes, the rock can be placed in a brand new tank and probably won't cause a cycle if you get it home quick. The worst case would be a small cycle of a week or less. The only thing that concerns me is the travel time because there will be coral stubs still on the rock and some of them might die in transit with them being submerged in water. (Someone else on the board might be able to comment). But if your tank is empty, you won't have to worry much about that...a short cycle would be much better than curing your own rock.

30 lbs is gone already and Im hesitant to sell the rest until some corals can be removed. I sold the first 30lb for $4 a pound and I'll stick with that price esp if coral stubs are left on the rock. The rock is mostly Fiji from Premium Aquatics..and a couple of Marshall Island pieces. I will sell you the rock, I just need a week or two to get some corals cleaned off of it.

Gflat, I'll give a good sized piece for $15 and send it with Tim. I have no idea what it is?!?!
 
Sold.... I will take all of the rock you have left. I needed to wait a week to get my allowance from the wife anyway, so waiting is not an issue. Just let me know when you are ready to remove the rock from the tank. I live just south of Memphis (Olive Branch MS), travel time would be less than two hours.
 
Sounds great.

Depending on the corals attached, I'd say you won't lose much transporting out of water. I'd cover the rock with wet newspaper (from tank water), but wouls expect that anything less than 10 hours and there would be no problems (and 10 hours is just an arbitrary number). When i buy rock and have to transport it, I like to fill rubbermaid tiubs with rock, load them into the transport vehicle, then put water in from the tank and finish it off with dampened newspaper. When you get to your destination, drain/siphon the water out to make moving the rock easier. Get the rock inside and put the water back in the tuibs until ready to use. I transported about 140 pounds from N. Ga (~4 hours one way) a little over a year ago with sps encrustation and the encrustation turned out pretty nice on all spots:). I did the same with 200# from Johnson City recently(4-5 hours), but there was no encrustation...
 
Two hour travel time will be no problem. I used to trek up to Kermits way back in the day (1996-2000) and bring rock to Oxford (~2 hours) with no die off.
 
fifamickey, the rock is yours. With all the corals encrusted on it, you're going to have some great rock with a ton of coral on it already..and some big pieces too. My original 130lbs was an estimate..so we'll weigh the pieces and see how much is actually there when the time comes. Thanks again.
 
Great, I feel like I am getting a fantastic deal as well. Just let me know when you are ready and then we can make arrangements for me to come and get it. With my work schedule weekends work best, but we can decide on that later. BTW, I was thinking about buying your Caribbean Pistol shrimp as well for my son. He actually convinced me to start my own tank, after I saw his. If you can hold on to it till I get the rock, then I will get the shrimp as well. Thanks
 
I was wondering what the large pink coral was on the right mound of live rock, little over halfway up, and on the left side was, if you still had it, and how much you wanted for it if you did.
 
Codeman,

I'll shoot for just after 6:00. I'll be coming out of Nashville so it depends on the traffic. Shoot me your address and I'll mapquest it so I won't have t drive all over Jackson shouting your name.

Tim
 
Cody/Gary,

I'd be happy to transport. I'm in Memphis form the weekend (your purchases can live in my tank for the weekend Gary). then I'll be back in Nashville Sunday night. Gary, we can work out a transfer point if I end up getting in late (which often happens). Will this work for you?
Tim
