The Tunze equipment is SOLD

LIVE - What's left...

Long Spine Puffer - Free to good home (he's hand fed trained, and takes krill from your fingers).

Magestic FoxFace - I've had some interest with this fish, but no firm "I'll buy it" offers, so he's still avalible - $20

FoxFace Lo - Again, some interetst but no firm "I'll take him" so he's still avalbile - $20

Both Foxface fish have been seen eating hair algea (back when that was a problem for me), and both now eat flake and pellet foods as well as frozen foods. These are fairly big fish (Magestic is 5-6" and the Lo is about 9") and do have venomous spines. However, if you handle them with a little respect, they won't outright "go after you". I'm asking that any buyer please bring a bucket for these fish, as a plastic bag just isn't going to cut it.

I also have the Manderian fish avalible $10 (male)


The rock buyer is coming to pickup the rest of the rock tonight, and I'm under orders to get these tanks unplugged by the end of the week.

Please contact me ASAP if your interested in any of the fish that are left.

I also have the following Dry Goods avalible for sale at this time:

Four Maxijet 1200's, modified for more flow by drilling holes in the baseplate and sawing off the output tube. When the pump is powered off and on (via a controller or timer) the flow changes directions. This modification easily doubled the flow of these pumps. I'm asking $5 each.

I also have:

Coralife Super Skimmer model 125 - $80
Rena Filstar XP2 canister filter - $30
Rena Filstar XP3 canister Filter - $60

I also still have a 24Gal JBJ Nano Cube, it's been modified with a Maxijet 1200 pump (replaced the junk pump it came with), and I've removed the hood that fell apart and replaced it with the Current USA light fixture. It's a 150watt MH bulb and also has blue and white LED moon lights.

The nano comes complete with sand, rock, pumps, lights, heaters (2), everything for $300 (there's even some small corals in there, GSP's and some button polyps).

Also avalible FREE - Wooden Tank Stand, 48" style (will fit a 75 or 110 gal tank). Painted in an off-white or cream color right now, but can easily be painted any color.

As soon as all the live stock is out of the tanks, I'll be draining them and cleaning them up a bit.

I hope to have the following up for sale shortly:

75 Gal All-Glass tank with Oak cabniet style stand and oak hood
48" coralife light strip with 2x 96watt PC's (~ 8 months on the bulbs)
Custom Acrylic sump for this tank with 3 chambers
Misc stuff like the heater, mag 9 return pump and siphon overlflow box.

120 Gal Perfecto Tank with black stand
LifeReef Dual slim-line Overflow box
Mag 12 return pump
LifeReef VS-24 Skimmer with Mag 9 pump
60" Hamilton "ReefStar" Lighting system (3x250watt DE MH's in 14k ~4 months on the bulbs) also has 2x96watt PC's ~12 months on the bulbs 1 burned out, all ballasts etc to run them
150watt MH pendant light in 10k ~10 months on the bulb
150 gal "Horse Tub"
50 Gal "horse tub" with 2 bulkhead fittings in the side

I haven't come up with the price list on all these things yet, because I can't quite sell them before I get all the fish and rocks gone. As soon as eveythign alive is gone, I'll drain them out and post the price list.

No stand for the cube, it's been sitting on my bar for about a year now. I'm in Florissant just down the street from Beldts.

Manderin and Maxi-Jet's are spoken for.

All the live rock is now SOLD

If your wanting a foxface or a puffer fish, LET ME KNOW!!!

I'm also giving away free all the live sand you could want, only catch is that's it's LIVE, it's been in the tank for 5 years and it STINKS to high heaven. If no one wants it, could someone tell me the best way to dispose of it?

My mistake, only 1 of the Maxi-Jet's is sold, I still have 3 avalible!

Also if any want's the FoxFace Lo, please let me know ASAP, I'm getting some interest in the tanks themselves and I really need to get these fish GONE!

So I still have the Puffer fish, FoxFace Lo, and Mag. Foxface that are un-spoken for.

I am interested in the foxface but here is my problem. I have a 75G but it is not setup as of yet. I have to finish off my basement before I am aloud to set it up. I have to have the basement finished before December because I have a young one on the way and we need the space. I currently have a 30 and a 35G tank. Would the foxface be ok in one of these tanks until December. If so I will take him and the remainer of the MJs

superfirefly - I'm sorry but hagfish beat you to the maxijet's by 2 mintues.

The foxface lo is about 8-9" long, I think you could probably hold him in a tank that small for a while, but he'll tear it up pretty good, and cause a pretty good bio-load on your filtration. However, I'll leave that choice up to you.

Please PM me and I'll send you my contact info.

Update:

I had a bit of a snaffu and confused two users on RC with each other.

The Manderian list is Fazgood , thatguy

I got a PM from someone asking about getting the 120gal tank, overflow and LifeReef Skimmer all as one unit. I'm waiting to hear back from that user.

I'm sorry for the confusion. I'll try and be extra careful with my list.

I'm not real familiar with live sand, but I see it sitting in bags at the store. I will setting up my first tank as soon as we move in the next two months, could I let it sit in a closed bucket until then, if so I'll take whatever amount you would suggest for a 33 gallon cube.

Sorry all the sand is spoken for.

Besides, I think everything that's alive in the live sand would most likely be dead after 2 months in a closed bucket.

No problem Officer.


I'll be posting a "what's left thread" here in a few days, I need to get the tanks drained and cleaned out and I'm waiting to do that until the sand is picked up.

To StephNewman - I have the PM's I sent you in my sent box here on RC, they included my Cell phone number and adderess with a request to call me and setup an appointment (just as eveyone else who's purchased something from me has done). I apologize if you felt you were still up for buying the Foxface.


All - They just dumped about 10 new projects on me at work, and I haven't had time to deal with the tanks now that all the livestock is gone. Please be patient, as I'm am trying to wade through all the PM's as best I can when I do get a free moment at work. If you have a PM from me that contains my Cell phone number, and your really needing to pickup an item soon, please call me tonight after 5:30 PM so that we can set a time for you to pickup the item.

I'm doing my best to juggle work, home life, and finally getting the rest of everything sold off. Please bear with me!

Doc - I know I still owe you a picture or two of the free tank stand.

Just let us know when you start missing the tank and are looking for stuff again! I can't see it being long. I went about 4 or 5 years and it was like a drug addiction. You constantly think about it.
