Getting out of the Hobby. Selling all livestock and equipment.

Well I have decided that I have very little time and not enough money to keep doing the hobby so I have decided to sell everything. It is sad but at the same time I am too busy to enjoy it right now (and electric bill is through the roof). I want to thank everyone who has helped me along the way. I will be back in the hobby just not any time soon. I will start with the livestock first. Also I will not hold anything at all. First come first serve basis only. This keeps it fair.

Pic taken a few months ago. It is bigger.

The RKL is the basic one. I paid $104 shipped. I still have everything that it came with even the original box. Like I said it just came in.

I would do $75 for it. People are charging $50 for their split one. This one is ready to split and you can make $50 back on it. Size is close to 12". It is huge so hopefully you have room for it.

Wow this is sudden Scott! Id like the flame hawk how big is it?

Charlie I have been contemplating it for awhile now. I had some misfortunes in the past couple of weeks that have made me decide to call it quits.

The flame hawk is 3". Cool fish.
