Change-up....it's for sale
« on: February 29, 2012, 20:10:38 »
So it turns out I just don't have as much free time right now as I would like to keep the tank up the way it should be, so I'm thinking I will be switching over to a freshwater planted tank.  So, with that being said it looks like all of my livestock, fish, corals, inverts, macros, mangroves, rock, sand will all need a new place to go.  I would absolutely love it if someone just took all of it, but I highly doubt this will happen.  As for listing it I don't even know where to begin. 

A few of you know what I have, but most don't.  My rock is LARGE.  I think about 8 pieces fill up the entire 180.

Most of the equipment will be cleaned and used on the freshwater, but I will have a SRO 3000 external skimmer, and dual chamber octopus calcium reactor.  There are about 3 boxes of reef crystals, and a bunch of chemicals and testers.

I will have to start putting stuff together but if anyone has any questions throw them out there.

So I guess I need to just pick a place to start so I will go with the macro display.

About 20 mangroves all well rooted with multiple leaves.  -- $1.50 each.

Flame algae ball-- $5

Oatgrass/seagrass, about 15 --  $25

Shaving brush multiple heads -- $15

Mermaid fan 2 --  $10

Some random other macros as well.

As for the fish, all the rockwork would have to go first, (unless you need lawnmower blennies)

xl sailfin tang--125
pair black clowns --100
3 chromi--15
psychedelic mandarin -- 20
4 lawnmower blennies(Large in the 180 and a medium in each of the 30g)  --15(10ea)

That is 305 so would probably do 250ish

There are 4-5 cleaner shimp -- 12ea
a couple peppermints --  6ea
hundreds upon hundreds of snails and crabs.  -- ??

I'm interested I'm the cleaner shrimp and chromis
Maybe salt too
And deep beneath the rolling waves in labyrinths of coral caves, the echo of a distant tide comes willowing across the sand, and everything is green and submarine.

the clowns are about 1.5 inches and 2.5 inches with not a spot of orange on them.  They are completely black and white.

As for the rock, there are 4 Extra Large -18-24" pieces of branched tonga, (which is illegal to harvest anymore and took me forever to find) and then about 250 pounds of Lace rock from reefsystems.com in columbus.  I love the stuff, the pieces range in size up to about 30".  There are 10 pieces that completely fill the 180, with some smaller ones that have coral growing on them.  Lazylivin can vouch for the size of the pieces.  Here are some pictures of the rock from when the tank was first set up.  Not sure what to ask.  I know the branched tonga this size is about $10/pound, and the lace rock is I think about $3.50/pound/dry.  I will tentatively put out $500 which is $2/pound.  Hopefully someone has plans of setting up a big tank and needs alot of rock.

I would be able to hold them for you for a few weeks or so with no problem, I will try to get some good pics to you soon, The only problem is I have to use my phone so the quality of the pics arent the best. PM me an email address or a phone number where you can receive pic messages and I will send some your way. How long have you had the mandarin? does it eat frozen or jus pods? I may be up that way this weekend sometime, if I am I would like to stop by to check them out. Thanks Ricky

Reckless-- there is no flame angel, didnt have that on the list.

discus--  the mandarin just eats pods as far as ive seen.  my email is apuhl20@yahoo.com.  my weekend is pretty hectic so wont be around much this week.  you will be second in line for the mandarin as it was requested a couple posts before you.

as was said, I need to get the rock gone before I can even think about catching any fish.

OK, so all the coral is gone!!  Still a few odds and ends left, some zoas on the rocks, blue mushrooms.  Lets get the rock gone and I will start to try and catch fish.

There are cleaner shrimp, starfish.

Have 2 lawnmower blennies that need new homes asap.  I will be home for the evening.  Get ahold of me.
