I just thought I would update my stuff for sale.


I have 3 small tank-bred (by me) ocellaris clownfish. These would make good mates if you already have an established female. They are approximately 1". I can give pictures if needed, but they look like standard ocellaris clowns. I'll sell them for $12 each or 2 for $20. If you really want me to, I can get a few pictures.

I have some other stuff for sale here in these pictures

I have everything in that album except for the tubbs blue

Prices are as follows:
Gary's Gorg - 2" - $15
zoa's - $.50/polyp, 10 polyp minimum
Hammer $5/head (can make 4 more heads)
Green Star Polyps - 3" x 3" mat - $5


Phyto - $5 for 2 dark green liters
Rotifers - (S strain I believe) - $10 for a lot (not sure, but a lot, you won't be disappointed)


I would entertain trades as well. I'm looking for LPS, some SPS, and pretty much any equipment (small tanks, filters, air pumps, extra plumbing supplies [especially 1" bulkheads], etc).

Rochester peeps! Depending on how it goes with the set build for Brighton Beach Memoirs...I may have an empty seat going to the swap on Saturday. If anyone isn't afraid of riding in the X-Wing with me.....

 

[Johnny C]

That's nice of you, Kat. I'm hoping that at least a few Rochester/Syracuse peeps can make it out here.

As far as I know, there's going to be 10-15 sellers and a LOT of summer blowout deals. See everyone Saturday!

 

[lcs]

Kat, you have pm

 

[Paradiddle7]

PM sent to Nirvana. I'd like a frag of the Gary's Gorg please, if it's not spoken for.

 

[NirvanaFan]

PM returned. You've got a frag with your name on it.

Can someone bring a pinpoint ph meter with them? I have low ph according to my test kit and I would like to confirm with a probe.

 

[toddmh]

hey Chris..It's not good for the probes moving them around..So a Ph meter like Pinpoint will not be a good choice to ask someone to bring..

Although..The guys from store can test your water for you..Bring a sample in a glass vial..I think the charge like a buck for that..It's great for phosphate tests because hobby level Phosphate test kits sucks..

 

[redrider911]

Ah ok Todd, I didn't know they were that fragile. Better yet, anyone got a used one for sale?

 

[toddmh]

yeah they are really fragile..so much,If I bought a used pinpoint..I'd buy a new probe for it..

 

[Brent Thomann]

I have one of these that I can bring to measure your PH, works really good-
http://www.airwaterice.com/product/PH200/PH-200-WATERPROOF-pH-METER.html

Let me know.

Your PH will probably measure a little different from when its in your tank and when measured later in a bag. Need to try and keep it at the same temp.

That would be awesome if you could. My ph didn't change after I tried to aerate it outside yesterday in the heat so I think we will be ok.
