It is with heavy heart that I find myself in immediate need of downsizing. I will be keeping a small tank for my baby YWG, a couple of baby clowns and a couple of corals, but otherwise everything is going. The goby pair, shrimp pair and clown pair are already spoken for.

FISH:
Yellow assessor pair $100 (will be last to go; the tank has to be empty to catch them)
Scooter blenny, female, proven flatworm eater, also readily eats prepared foods $35 (to established home only)

CORALS:
4 lobophyllias. $25 each
Large tan lobophyton. $25

OTHER LIVESTOCK
Live rock, $4 per pound. This rock is fairly new but well cycled and consists of a few large large pieces
Live sand, $1/pound
Rock rubble, $2 per pound

TANK SETUP #1 $750
100g acrylic tank with some very minor scratches. Rear right standpipe-style overflow with 1 1/2" drain. Overhead manifold with 4 locline outlets. 1/2" styrofoam tank underlayment
Custom Lee Mar canopy, 12" high with dual doors and open back
Lee Mar wood stand to match, with rear stained shelf
3 top quality surge suppressors, mounted to stand under shelf
65w LOA fuge light AND 2100k fuge light with fixture
2 small clip-on fans for canopy and stand
4x65w Coralife PC lighting fixture, mounted in canopy with aircraft cables
40g sump
Brand new Quiet One 6000 return pump
250w titanium heater
All plumbing

TANK SETUP #2 $100
20g glass tank, no scratches
overflow with 1" drain
stockman standpipe
wood stand
Dolphin DP540 return pump
NO SUMP, LIGHTING OF CANOPY

OTHER EQUIPMENT
Aqua C EV180 skimmer with ozone fitting, intake valve and Dolphin DP800 pump $250
West Coast Aquatics 1/6 hp Mini Micro chiller. 1" input/output. Works but needs recharge to be efficient again. $100

I am willing to consider parting out packages or making a deal for the 100g as-is with rocks and everything. Make me a reasonable offer.

I am in Orange and I will not ship. Photos to follow tonight.

(feeding time for the green one)

Also a large orange/yellow one -- looks brown under my 6500k's, though.

Nicole, Sorry to hear your getting ride of your tanks. I would like some of your sand with feater dusters and some of the plating algae. I am seriosly thinking about your Yellow assessor pair if you think they would be ok in my tank.

Some personal issues have arisen that are placing a burden on both my time and finances to keep up the tank. I don't expect them to be resolved any time soon and I don't want to watch the tank decline and then try to resurrect it, you know?

Steve, in your tank, I think the assessors would be fine but they would probably hide a lot. They are very peaceful and are not very comfortable around aggressive fish. Your tangs would probably scare them running around like they do.

I am keeping some of the sand and the seagrass for the new tank, but I have plenty.

I don't have any rocks with the plating algae, but there is plenty on the back wall and a few pieces crushed up and scattered in the tank might take off.

Hey, there's another piece of livestock. Or it could go with the tank. Someone make me an offer -- the faux rock wall is detachable and loaded with critters. Even some mushrooms I haven't been able to erradicate.
 
I understand sorry. If you have any small critters like hermits, snails ect.
I'm interested. I need some stuff for the sand bed I just started.
THX
 
No hermits, but I have lots of collumbellid snails (IPSF sell 'em as "strombus grazers") and a couple of ceriths and nassarius if they can be found.

$1 each for snails
 
Nicole-
What are the dimensions of the faux wall? Kinda disappointed you
are selling the assessors for much less than I paid. Dennis
 
I am sorry about that Dennis, but I am trying to move this stuff quickly.

The faux wall is in two pieces -- it's designed for a 5' tank, but they could go in the 6' tank and be farther apart, or the pieces could be cut down. In a 5' tank, the pieces do not meet in the middle. There is rock rubble in the walls, some of which is very hard, so depending on the way you wanted to cut it down, it could require a band saw.

The height is 20," depth varies from 1" to I think4 or 5" in one or two spots along the bottom. Here are the pieces in a standard 100g without anything else in them.

If you want the walls, I'm sure we can work something out that will make you feel a little less disappointed in the assessor price, especially since last I heard they were being terribly shy on you.

Nicole-
Well my tank is 36" across and 18" high.... will the 2 pieces accomodate
these dimensions with some cuts. Thanks Dennis
 
I'm not getting out, just drastically downsizing.

Dennis, the height is doable; just cut 2" off the top. I will get dimensions for each side when I get home tonight. I think just the left side is close to 36" long at the bottom. You could cut down both sides or do some combination of it.

The right side has lots of the cool plating corraline and is thinner; there's a really thin spot behind the standpipe. Overall, it has grown more coralline and less of the gray shows through.

The left side has the mushrooms and heavy base pieces along the bottom, and I think I did a better job with the texture on that side. I have also seen more worms, etc. on the left side, but that may partially be because it was more visible with my old rock work.
 
If you go,Dennis and if it's available(Nicole?) I'd love to have the lobo in the 3rd picture.

I'm glad you're still keeping at least the small tank.Best of luck..we still need you on the board.
