I am selling a 70 gallon tank. It has a new light and two new powerheads. it has an overflow and a sump and a protien skimmer. I also have a lot of live rock. I just am not into it as much as I was. :(


I am asking $600 for everything. it has all been kept well and cleaned regularly.:)

You just registered & Selling on your firts post?

GIVE THIS LIFESTYLE SOME TIME?

BUT... how do you know that he hasn't had this tank for over a year, been in the hobby for a while, We do not know, so you shouldn't assume..... Maybe someone told him about RC and said go sell it on there...so maybe thats why it's his first post....

Please done be so judgmental...
 
:) I voted "well taken care of". After all he says "it has all been kept well and cleaned regularly", what more could you ask for? Also he used three different "smiley faces" in his post :thumbsup:, what more could he/she have done? :D

Maybe listed where the tank was located. Of course it does "have a new light". :D Woops, used the same smiley twice!!

Ok radrngr to give you a break, let us know a little more about what you are selling. Set up tank with occupants? What are the occupants? What kind of lighting comes with the tank? …

Yeah, what's the deal with this forum lately?

It's become a garage sale for everyone's used junk. No offense, but this forum used to be a resource for useful information. A lot of clubs just say "no" to those kinds of threads:

http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=703975

For our actual paid, participating "club members", yeah it's cool once in a while, but for someone to register on R.C. just to hawk their system, try doing it here:

http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=2

The users agreement for registering a user's account states that selling goods should only be conducted in the appropriate forums (see above link). Generally the moderators are a little more tolerant to this happening in the club forums, but I'd bet that a search of the last 6 month's threads on this forum would predominantly consist of "F.S.". What's with that???
 
I understand that we can't turn this into a selling fourm but it is nice to be able to direct your sales to local reefers. Also I like it when people sell corals or frags on here because I can get some really good deals. Mabey we can limit the sales adds to only MARS members.

Hmmm I dont know if that would work, might get a lot of talkback about that.

But I see where rich is coming from.... Someone so new, just comes to post a for sell thread. Kinda inconsiderate....Were a club forum, not a drop off point for your stuff. :rolleye1:

But I do agree with jordan, it is nice to see local reefers get local stuff...

we dont like to be used and just thrown aside... atleast chat and talk with us. :rollface:

Im not really seeing any usefully resourcefull threads get pushed to the bottom by FS threads. There have been a handfull of what I would consider good resources, but they do stick around for a while if they are helpfull or interesting, but inevitably they subside as well cuz theres only so many things that can be discussed untill were beating a dead horse.

Me? I always like to see whats for sale, but can relate to the frustration when that is the only thing getting posted.

But at the same time honestly, there arent a whole lot of people sparking up discussions here. No one has anything interesting to say? Either people are inhibited because they feel there going to get flamed by us, or there shy or something.

I'm probably pretty pathetic as Im on here daily, sometimes bi-hourly, and Ill on a daily basis see at least 30 people, but amazed how no one says anything, Ive told you guys before, sometimes I get so tempted just start a thread saying" Hey fellow members whatsup??!I see you!!:D" Just to get a reaction and cuz Im a friendly guy.

If we were all participating in discussions, and joe-schmoe kept pushing the threads down for trivial sale items, that would be one thing. But Im just not seeing that happen:(

Maybe this should be a rule like what Jake did for NVR and see how it goes? Whatever it takes to promote some discussions in here I will always be down for!Especially seeing how most of us came here to learn about and talk shop. So let's talk!!:D

yeah thing is, were only spouse to discuss reef related subjects, other stuff can get moved or deleted. That might be why there isnt too much other OT stuff....But I have been needing to ask a question, which i will post...
 
As a club forum I would think that we could discuss anything that we want.....
I've got to agree with Rich though...this forum is a Club forum, and as such I have no problems if a member or someone close to the group (like you BAR members) posts some things for sale. I do however dislike when nonmembers come out of the blue looking to make money off of us..that's what craig's list is for..
 
hehe... that poll along with the for sale subject made me a little curious what this was all about :)

FWIW, a few folks from NVR mentioned the idea of having a single buy/sell/trade thread in our club forum that everyone uses rather than starting their own. I like the idea but I think BAR tried it (maybe someone else I'm thinking of, don't really recall) and it became a big mess. I miss being able to browse the local for sale stuff, but it is a double edged sword.

I'm still suggesting to people in our club to use this Greater SF area forum: http://reefcentral.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=392

which seems to have been created specifically for this purpose. If a few of the local clubs come together on this idea (I'm open to other ideas too) it would keep all of the 'local' for sale threads under one roof and solve the issue of our forums looking like craig's list.


...food for thought...







p.s. I voted for "lots of rock" :D
