FS: Various fish, inverts, and hollywood stunner chalice

[Runner]

I am breaking down my tank to do a total reset because of turf algae (and neglect) and need a good home for some of the livestock that is presentable. Local pickup only. Here is the list:

Chalk basslet: $10
Green Clown Goby: $5
Spotted Watchman Goby: $10
Tiger Pistol Shrimp: $10
Pencil urchin: $10

The watchman goby and shrimp have paired up, but am not 100% sure that the shrimp is still alive -- will know when I break the tank down.

The one coral I have that is free of algae contact is the hollywood stunner chalice that has grown like crazy over my back glass. I would sell a 2"+ frag for $20 or the entire 8"+ diamater colony for $60 (if I can get the entire thing free in one piece).


I will be posting my 20G long frag tank, (2) twin-bulb T5HO fixtures, and custom-made furniture quality stand for sale soon, too. Hang-on-back filters will be tossed in. Plan to ask $200 for the entire thing but will post part-out prices soon in separate thread. Let me know if interested.

Scott, I'll take the clown goby.
How big is the pistol shrimp? If it's on the smaller size I'll take it also.

 

[Runner]

Okay. I can probably catch the goby without breaking it down. Last time I saw the shrimp was a month ago and he was about 2" to 3" long.

 

[LawmanRob]

I'll pass on the Pistol shrimp, Spencer posted he was interested in the goby/shrimp pair over on Voldemort.

 

[Runner]

Got it. Only the chalk basslet, pencil urchin, and HS chalice left now.

The one fish I would want...naturally Rob nabs it up.

As always Randy for the win!

Love ya Melly... They didn't have Cider...

 

[EvilMel]

Boo. Cider rules.

Pardon me while I hijack my own thread back.

While cleaning up my frag tank tonight I verified that several corals were good to sell. These include tubs blues zoas, zombie eye zoas (paly?), and some small florida ricordea (8+) in three color forms. The zoas I'd sell for $1 per full polyp (probabaly better than that the larger the frag) on rock or free. The small ricordeas would be $5 each (per mouth). Will try to post some photos later after my daughter goes to bed.

Also have some a few aussie duncans that are surviving but haven't been happily extended in a while. One 3-head frag $20 and the main body with about 6 heads alive (and about 12 dead) for $40. Will return this money if they do not open.

I would be interested in the zoas. Let me know. Thanks.

 

[Runner]

I would be interested in the zoas. Let me know. Thanks.

Sending you a PM with my cell number. Give me a call. I have several frags left (including a colony of "reverse gorilla nipples" growing on my back wall that may or may not be removable).

 

[cjj14u]

I will take any and all Ricordea you have left.

PM sent with my #.

 

[Runner]

Hey. Sorry, but all ricordea were sold today. As was a three head Duncan.

 

[EvilMel]

Scott, I think you should list what's left.

 

[ct_vol]

All that is left is this hijacked thread... :uzi:

 

[Runner]

Heh. I have the following items left (links taken from an internet zoanthid ID site -- not my own but close in appearance):

• Pencil Urchin: $10
• Zoanthids, Pink radial paly/zoa (similar to zombie eyes): $10 for 15+ polyps (2 or 3 colonies left)
• Zoanthids, Tubbs Blues: $10 for 15+ polyps (4 frags)
• Zoanthids, Reverse Gorilla Nipples (original colony photo): $10 for 10+ polyps (multiple, spread out over back glass, may be hard to harvest)
• Hollywood Stunner Chalice frag (~2"): $10 (can probably get up to 4 or 5 decent sized frags)

See Photo 1 and Photo 2 for pics of the original colonies of these zoanthids corals. The pink is in the bottom left of Photo 2, the Tub's Blues are in the bottom right of Photo 2, and the reverse gorilla nipples are on the left wall of Photo 1. A better photo that shows what they look like is at a zoa ID site, here. All others died in the turf algae scourge before I could save a frag.

I also may have two firefish in my filter area for sale. If I can locate them and they are in good health, I'd sell them both for $15.

 

[Runner]

Harvesting went well. Multiple frags of 20+ polyps of all three. Also have blue/purple mushrooms, $5 for two small or one large (loose unless they attach tonight to the tiles I set them on). Also have healthyl frags of 4~6 large brown/green button polyps attached to rock for $5 each (the center glow green under actinics).
