FS: Fish Tank Failure Sale

I will need to sell these critters in the next few days... The power went out and the check valve failed on me. I'll need to take down the tank to avoid mold problems under the carpet and possibly replace it. Instead of setting up again, I figure I should get out while I am ahead....

Please arrange for a pick up. My travel distance will be minimal. I live in Elk Grove.. close to Franklin and Laguna Blvd. If you buy a majority of these items, a discount will be considered for the dry goods. The prices on the critters are pretty firm.

2 x false perc clowns. Tank raised from ORA. I've had one for about 3 years, and the second one for about 1 year.
$20 for the pair

3 x yellow assessors. Tank raised from ORA. Great little guys that have unique swimming behavior. All three get along very well.
$20 each

1 x orange spotted goby. I've had him for 3 years. Very healthy and fat. Pairs up with my pistol shrimp.
$25 for the pair

Assorted live rock. Lots of purple - very great shapes. Overall, they're small to large sizes. Approx. 90 lbs available... maybe more. I've had most of the live rock for 2-3 years.
$3 per pound and I do have a scale.

I have a few corals and zooanthids that I will sell too.. just don't have a list off the top of my head.

Items will sell after critters/live stock are gone.....

--------------
90 gallon tru vu tank with left side corner over flow box. Good condition. A few scratches as an acrylic tank would expect to have. Nothing too deep however.

Custom hood thats at least 15-18 tall. Doors are on the front. Top is painted metal screen for improved ventilation.
$350 for this set

Please feel free to ask any questions. Pictures will be up pending time. I will do my best to provide them. Thank you, this hobby has been fun.
 
Sorry to hear about your tank. That's happened to me a few times too. I just throw down some towels around the tank, let it all soak up, then I blow some fans on it for about 3 days. Since you're taking down your tank, you could always rent a steam cleaner and pull out the water.

I always tell myself that the funnest part about this hobby is starting over. Hopefully we'll see you around.

all assessors
