For Sale: LR, LS, fish, lights, etc.

[mokoma]

Hi - I am again trying to sell my 54 gallon cornor system. This time I am NOT selling the tank/stand. Just the live stuff and lights and skimmer. My wife and I just had our first child 3 weeks ago and I cannot keep up with the work on the tank. Already it is being attacked by aiptasia and algae. So please keep that in mind..

Here's what I am offing for sale:

80-100lbs live rock (algae and aiptasia on most of it)
approx 80 live sand
couple turbos
couple dwarf hermits
CORALS include: tourch, blue shrooms, yellow polyps, green star polyps (algae got most of these I think), giant cup shroom (8-10" when fully opened), and MANY anthelia sp. (these grow like crazy).
FISH include: (1 of each) tomato clown, orange-tailed blue damselfish, black sailfin blenny, and bicolor angelfish.

I am asking $250 for all the 'live' stuff, but I am negotiable in price. I just want someone to save this stuff from the algae! I would prefer one buyer for all the above, with the new baby we really don't want too many different people in the house.

As far as the other equipment, I will list with asking price behind but again, I am negotiable on all prices:

customsealife PC 36" 2-96watt bulbs incl. ($75)
AquaMedic HQI 250watt MH w/20K bulb ($175)
Prizm skimmer ($25)
55lb bucket Tropic Marin Salt ($25)

I also have various chemicals, additives, etc. with I will give away to anyone who might want them.

I do have a picture of the tank (not a good one but..) Please email me (milkevi@hotmail.com) for a picture or for other details. I am in Clarion County, near Parker.

Thanks,

Kevin

Is the bucket of salt new? If so, I will take it.

Oh, just noticed you are in Clarion county, do you ever get to the pgh area? Are you coming to the PMAS meeting tomorrow?

[mokoma]

It is new, I have used about 4 cups of salt from it. No sorry, have to work tomorrow. Thanks - Kevin

YOu have a pM on the 250 Pendent.

 

[BeanAnimal]

Acer... you still want that big rock of zoos I have?

 

[BeanAnimal]

Kevin,

I know you are asking for somebody to take it all... if that does not work, I am interested in the sailfin

Maybe a group of folks can split this stuff up?

 

[mokoma]

Ok - here's the update..pretty much have the MH sold. I have someone who wants 50lbs of rock, and the sailfin. BeanAnimal had a good idea, maybe if you guys all want something different, just one or two could come up to get the stuff and then divide it up when you get home? I need to find home for the rest of fish at least...they are in perfect health...the bicolor is spectacular in color. I would take $5 for the clown, $5 for the sailfin (sold I think?), $10 for the angel, and I'll give the damsel away. Thanks!! Kevin

 

[acer]

Pendent is sold to me- if anyone is interested in anything else I could arrange to pick it up and then you could pickup your purchase from me= closer than Parker to Pittsburgh. I live in gibsonia. I am also taking the bicolor and some rock - so have to travel up to pick up my items anyhow. hopefully- we can arrange a good time for all.

 

[raynist]

Could you pick up the salt for me?

How much is the rock?

 

[acer]

yes- that would be easy- I will store in the garage until you can pick it up - or could bring it to the next meeting.

 

[raynist]

Thanks. I can get it at the next meeting.

Thank you Ted for your offer. So far sold is MH, Salt, Bicolor, some rock...still waiting on confirmation of the 50lbs rock and the sailfin. I'd like to get $1.50/lb for the rock, but can negotiable on some pieces that have no coral attached or are worse off as far as algae or aiptasia go. I have a scale and weigh it out. Ted - I'll be in touch later today. THANKS ALL!!
Kevin

 

[BeanAnimal]

Kevin what is the status of the sailfin. I will take it if there is a question.

 

[levichar]

If anyone ends up with the blue mushrooms, let me know....I'm interested.

 

[mokoma]

BeanAnimal - the sailfin is yours! Are you having Ted pick him up for you?

 

[BeanAnimal]

That will work just fine. I will wait to hear from Ted and arange to pick him up as soon as he returns from your house.

Ted... let me know what works best for you and I will arrange to meet you.

 

[acer]

OK- talked to Kevin yesterday- pickup will take place weekend of May 6th. Will let you know details/times/etc. ASAP. BEAN I will have a 10 gallon setup for temporary isolation of my bicolor and - if you wish your sailfin blenny- but do not want to be responsible if I loose him in the transfer. Let me know if anyone else wishes me to pickup stuff.

 

[raynist]

Acer, I am going on vacation on the 5th and will not be back in town until the 16th. I can pick the salt up from you at the next meeting if that is ok.

Thanks
Ray

 

[acer]

A-ok Ray, unless something comes up and I miss the meeting- had an emergency last weekend-so missed the meeting. NO promises- but certainly expect to be at the meeting and have no problem bringing it or holding onto it until you can pick it up at my house.

 

[BeanAnimal]

Sounds good to me. I guess we can shoot for not even having to take him out of the bag if the timing is right.
