Leaving Hobby Sale

I'm sad to announce that due to health issues related to my back, I've decided to shut down my tank, sell off all livestock and equipment, and leave the reef tank hobby. I'll be posting my tank and equipment for sale (some real nice high end stuff) after I sell off the livestock. I hate to leave this hobby, but I just can't maintain everything anymore with my back issues.

Local Pickup ONLY - no shipping.
I will use PM's as key to who contacted me first.

The following that are FREE to a good home:
1) Large Yellow Tang - very healthy and a good eater. With all my rock, he will be hard to catch. So you may need to wait until rock is sold off.
2) Large Red Serpent Star - also very healthy and eats well (about 10in diam at leg tips)

For sale are misc acro's and monti's. Nothing rare or super fancy....but nice for someone starting an sps tank. I'm not real good with names (so I've tried to keep the desc generic unless I'm sure of the name) but I've posted some pics with numbers of the different larger corals. As you can see from the pics, there are many other corals in my tank that I havent listed. So if you want to come take a look and see if there's anything you like, please feel free. The prices are real cheap because I need to get this stuff sold off so I can shut down and sell my equipment.

1) Turbinaria - about size of fist. It shows green in my tank (probably because I'm running real blue lights) but friend has frag that is yellow in his tank. $20
2) Blue/purple arco. $10
3) Large Green Slimer. $15
4) Very Large Blue/Green branching acro - growing right out of the water. $25
5) Large Yellow/Green branching acro. $20
6) Purple Velvet monti. $25
7) Red Planet + Neon Green acro (not shown cause its on back of rock) - both encrusted to same rock, so you get the whole rock. $20
8) Purple Haze monti. $10
9) Emerald green monti. $5
10) Tan Lettuce Leather. $10
11) Neon Green Leather (many large pieces of this). $5-15 depending on how much you want.
12) Blue/Green Candy Cane (many different sized pieces of this). $5-15 depending on how much you want.

After I sell of the corals, I also have approx 200+ lbs of Fiji live rock.

Hey Guys, thanks for all the quick responses and well wishes. Sure gonna miss the hobby.....but I gotta find something a little easier on the ole back.

It looks like I should have most the corals sold.

I'll have to go thru my PMs to see who was first for each. I'll list the names in this thread....hopefully later tonight. If there is anything left, I'll post whats available.

Even had some interest in the tank. For those who were asking, its a custom built (by AquaArt in Columbus) 180 gal acrylic bowfront with matching bowfront black acrylic stand and canopy. I'm the original owner, so somewhere I have to original purchase order.

To be honest, I really haven't decided on price for tank and other equipment. I'm just starting on the livestock now. But I can say that EVERYTHING except my backup power system, ACIII, RO & Water Storage System will be put up for sale.

For those who were asking about the tank, I'll get back to you shortly.

Thanks for all your interest
 
I've gone thru my PMs and listed the primary person for each. If the primary person backs out, I'll contact the secondary....and so on. Just trying to be fair to everyone.

I'll call those listed tomorrow (if you provided your phone). If not, please send me a PM with your contact info. I should be around in the afternoon. Or I can do an evening during the week or even next weekend.

1) Turbinaria - about size of fist. $20 aznnutty
2) Blue/purple arco. $10 aznnutty
3) Large Green Slimer. $15 aznnutty
4) Very Large Blue/Green branching acro. $25 aznnutty
5) Large Yellow/Green branching acro. $20 Melchior

I've had a couple inquiries about the tank and live rock. Once I get the other livestock out of the tank I'll be in touch with those who were asking.
 
Hello

Hello

Would be interested in your liverock when you are ready. Sorry to hear you are leaving the hobby. Please let me know, Richard
 
I'll be out and about today for some errands so give me a call if you see this. I'm available this evening to stop by if it is good for you.
 
I cant pm because of post.send me your number and i will contact you.i would like to see what all your got,i would take the tang and star too,i would pay for them also.i live very close so can meet up fairly easy.

Thanks,john

Sorry John, the Tang and Starfish were already spoken for by Hustla22.
 
I believe I'll have all my corals sold after Melchoir and Ello pick up the ones they've requested.

Had a couple people asking about the Live Rock. I expect to be ready to sell that off in another week or two. With 3 people already in line for that, I think it should all be gone. Here's the order of who requested the LR:
First: K-ROK
Second: Forgiven1973
Third: HawaiianDiver

I'll contact you guys in a week or so when I'm ready to sell it.

Then I'll start working on my equipment list.
