After much thought and consideration, and a recent tank crash, I have decided I need to get out of the hobby for a while. Between work and some remodeling at home I do not have much time to keep the tanks up, and they are suffering for it. This morning I awoke to find that my softie tank had crashed during the night wiping out everything, and that was the final straw.
I will have to post stuff in waves because I am at work and do not know for sure everything I have. Some of the stuff will have to wait until the tanks that still contain life are gone, but after that everything reef and tank related is going. I considered saving some stuff in case I wanted to get back into it, but have decided that a clean break is best.
65 Gallon "“ my zoanthid tank, although not as densely populated as it once was. Tank with black stand and canopy, which could use a fresh coat of paint. The sump is a bit oversized because I had planned on moving to a taller stand after some home remodel work. Works fine, just a bit louder than normal due to a high spot in the drain line. I will have to check the light brand name, but it is a 250w x 2 MH with two T5 supplemental bulbs. Have to look for MH temp, but I replaced them middle of last summer. Eiblis Angel, one Alleni damsel and a yellowtail damsel. The eiblis really likes to pick at hard corals, so I would recommend he stay in a soft coral tank. There are a couple of brittle stars and some cleanup crew. A bit of an algae bloom, partially because I have slacked on cleaning, and because it could use a cleanup crew refresh. $500
RSM #1 "“ I have two Red Sea Max tanks. The first one is the softie tank that crashed last night. I will clean it out, but would like to keep the rock wet, and let the buyer strip it down. I have an aftermarket pump in the back of circulation due to the factory ones going out. It is the older model without the digital timer, but I have added on the surface skimmer attachment the Red Sea offers. Skimmer still works fine. I have no idea why it crashed, and did not have time to look into it this morning. I just fed the clownfish that were in there last night, so it was very sudden, you may want to cook the rocks before reusing them. $300
RSM #2 "“ This one is doing better. Mostly LPS tank, but there are some zoas (generic) and a bunch of the blue clove polyps. There are a few small assorted LPS including a plate coral (about 2" across) that is still attached to the rock it grew out of. Yasha Hashe goby is the only fish. I have not seen his pistol shrimp buddy in a while, but there was one in there. They shacked up together at first, then kind of parted ways. Having a bit of an aptasia problem, but have not worked on getting it cleared up yet. $375
Nanowave 9 "“ I actually have two of these, which are empty at the moment. They both need new bulbs, but they are nice little self-contained setups. $35/each
Nanocube 24 "“ I have had this a long time, it was my SPS tank for a couple of years until it crashed while we were on vacation, but I never set it back up. I modified it to have two MJ1200 pumps in it to get better flow in the tank. It was running open top with a 20" Sunpod 150w MH over it. I do not have the top anymore, but there were some many heat problems open was the only way to go. I would consider splitting these. Tanks/stand $45 Light $75 Both $110
Other tanks "“ I have three 29 gallon tanks and stands and a 55 gallon with stand and canopy. All of these have been used as freshwater tanks at one point or another, and I am not the original owner of any of them, so I cannot say what has been dosed in them. 55g $60 29g $35/each
I will post more items and pictures tonight after work. If you have questions, please let me know. I live out in Eaton but work in Ft Collins, so I would be willing to bring any of the items that do not involve living creatures in with me before work. I just ask that you are sure you want to buy before I haul them in so I am not dragging this stuff back and forth.
Sorry for the long post, I just wanted to get some detail about what I have for sale. Thanks for looking.
