I'm moving to Chicago in 3 months and I need to sell most if not all of my reef tank before moving.

I'm currently listing the following for sale. Each of these animals has been in my tank for at least 5 months and all of them are doing well.


This guy is approx 10-12 inches in diameter. It's 'stem' is about 6 inches long or tall. I'm asking $70 obo.

I've been fighting a hair algae problem which is why the coral on the bottom looks a little dark. It's completly healthy however, and when I blow the algae off he looks completly fine. The anenome is doing well and eating well also. The coral is about 12 inches long and 5-6 inches wide. The anenome is about 4 inches in diameter. I'd like $60 for each one.

This guy has grown quite a bit since I bought him about a year ago. I have pictures of him much smaller. This guy is about 5-7 inches long and 3 inches wide. I'd like $75.

This frag is still small, but I've had him in my tank for about 8 months. It's about 1.5 inches tall and maybe a half inch thick. I'd like $15.

This starfish is pretty old too, he's been in my tank for almost a year. He may be 7 inches in diameter. I'd like $15.

Please reply or email me at maporsche@hotmail.com if you are interested. I may only check back once a day so don't be discouraged if I don't respond.

Also, I'd like to only sell this locally for either pickup or meeting somewhere (preferably on the weekends).

Let me know and thanks for looking.

Also, if these prices seem off please let me know, I think that these are close to the prices that I bought them for from AquaTouch on 32nd st and Cactus.

Everything else is fair game.

SPS frag is now available.

FYI....I live in the west valley, near 116th ave and Olive. So that may affect some purchase decisions. I can meet someone anywhere north of Glendale Ave and West of Cave Creek.

I would like to be second in line for the linkia if dink decides not to take it.

^bump^


Also, feel free to haggle prices if you think mine are unreasonable. I want to make sure that this stuff is sold before I have to start packing and getting ready for the move.

Right now it's just livestock, but after that's sold it will be live rock and tank equipment.

But I got to get rid of the livestock first......


thanks

New prices based on some feedback I received.

$45 - top picture, 'mushroom' looking thing
$40 - 2nd picture, green bubble tip anenome and other coral (price is $40 for each, or $80 total)
$45 - 3rd picture, green brain looking thing

The frag and starfish are on hold for now. I'd like to clear these out this weekend if possible so I can sell off some of the rest of my tank.

Starfish was sold today.

Some interest was expressed in the leather. Could anyone help in identifying the species for me. When it's polyps are not extended it is a light tan color. The picture show is under 400watt 10K MH lighting.

The Leather in picture 1 is still available - $35
Green Bubble Tip Anenome in picture 2 - $30
Coral in picture 2 - $30
Orange/Green frag - $10
Brittle Star that I can't get a picture of (probably 20in diameter, but mostly legs, the body I haven't seen in months) - $15
135+ lbs of Fuji Live Rock ready for your tank - $3.00/lb


I will also be giving away blue legged hermit crabs and various types of snails with each purchase. I will give away free xenia stalks with each purchase (or until they run out). I will give away scoops of live sand with each purchase (I have a ton of copepods running around it so I'll sure you'll get some of those too)

I would really like to sell off all of this this week.

I can stop by the FRAG meeting and drop off anything that someone want's to buy there. I will not be able to stay long, but I can defiantly stop by and drop things off.

Ok, here is what's left as of 8/16.

Brittle Star - $10
Leather - $25
Bubble Tip Anenome - $25
Coral from picture 2 - $25
Orange and green frag - $10


Here's the thing. I need to sell this off by Thursday night because I sold off all of my live rock yesterday and the water quality in my tank will drop soon and not be able to support these animals.

I am available from 6:00pm to 12:00am Wednesday and Thursday nights. Please PM me and I will email you directions.



Live Sand - Free to who ever buys any of the above
Various Snails - Free to whoever buys any of the above

The frag is yours.

I'm not sure what its 'needs' are, but currently my tank is running under 2 400W 10K MH bulbs.

Do you think you could pick it up today or tomorrow?
