It's Spring!!!!!!!
Hey all! I have decided it is time for me to get out. I haven't had the time to care for the tank and when I do, I don't want to. I will put together a post with pics and such, but for now here's what I have. Trying to gauge interest.
The equipment is only a year and a half old.
Standard 125 - drilled with beananimal drain - $200
Store bought stand - $150
Canopy made my Joe and Joe's Woodworks - $250
30g long sump, divided - $30
Aquamaxx 200 EM skimmer - $250
Laguna 1500 return pump - $100
two 24" Reefbreeder LEDs with remotes that work - these are about two years old, a year and a half running. They are hung in the canopy, but are easily removed. - $100 for both
Obviously it would be easiest if someone wanted all the equipment, but especially the tank, stand, and sump with all the plumbing.
Two 10g tanks - free
Livestock - all free:
fish:
4" tomini tang
small female ocellaris clown - she is being hosted by the nem, would like them to go together, but not necessary
tailspot blenny
adult male melanurus wrasse
invertebrates:
bleached RBTA and rock
bleached maxi-mini nem - had a heater issue and tank was at 90 for quite a while. Nems will need some TLC, but I think they will come back.
purple gorg with large polyps - doing really well
small, purple gorg, with small polyps (frilly gorg?) - could be doing better, but is tough
9ish head duncan
large colony of frogspawn on a large rock - the rock has some large aiptasia and algae on it, I would recommend removing the frogspawn and killing the rock
4" neon green toadstool
1.5" neon green toadstool
three greenish/pinkish mushrooms on a small rock
a large, flat rock with about a dozen blue rics and some button polyps
two green rics that I think are on the RBTA's rock
4 heads of blasto - standard green center with red skirt
and of course some snails - a few turbos and a couple astreas
I think that's everything. I will be sure to get pictures up soon. The livestock and rock are free for a couple of reasons - 1) this is a very generous community and I would like to contribute to that, especially for anyone starting out and 2) the rock has some aiptasia - not bad, but still a PITA - and some species of algae that I introduced on a frag years ago and have never been able to eradicate so you won't be able to just dump it in a tank.
Hopefully someone can take the rock first and then go from there.
