Unhappy Moving - Need to sell livestock & corals

Hi folks,

It's been a while since I was active, both in CMAS and on RC. The mundane aspects of life caught up with me again, and I am in the process of moving from Chicago to St. Louis. I was hoping that the buyers of my home would want to keep my setup, but unfortunately, that's not the case. My tank is also suffering some lack of TLC. I've been on the road for almost 6 months.

I need to sell all the inhabitants and live rock in my 220Gal tank. And, I need to do it by Thursday, June 30th. I'm not happy about this, but it's the hand I've been dealt. I have some pics in my gallery of the tank and several of the inhabitants.

If you give a call your welcome to come look & shop through this week (evenings), and weekend (all day). 847-430-8489. I am located in Park Ridge. Unfortunately, I will not be able to ship livestock.

I'm not going to put prices on all the fish et al. Come, make me a reasonable offer, and take home some new friends. I'm not looking to make a profit, but please don't insult either.

When the fish are gone, the Rock is up for sale.

I also have a 100 Fuge filled with Chaet and other Calupra. The Fuge is teaming with Copepods.

Thank you, Rob & Lisa.

My fish include,
-- Lineatus Fairy Wrasse, (2+ yrs)
-- Scott's Fairy Wrasse (2+ yrs)
-- Mandarin Dragonet Goby (Beautiful - 3+ yrs)
-- Naso Tank (2 yrs ~ 6")
-- Basslet (~4")
-- Fat Head Anthea (1+ yrs)
-- Mated pair of Black Percula. (2+ yrs)
-- Coral Beauty (1.5 yrs)
-- Flame Hawk (1.5 yrs)
-- 2x Dragon Gobies (2+ yrs)
-- 4x Green Chromis (2+ yrs)

The Inverts & Clams include,
2x Fire Shrimp (1.5 yrs)
1x Cleaner Shrimp (2+ yrs)
3 or 4 Serpent Stars,
up to 4 tiger cucumbers (2+ yrs - see them occasionally)
10" Squamosa (Beautiful - 1.5 yrs)
6" Squamosa (very nice - 1.5 yrs)
3x Maximas ~ 4"
Many Snails of various types including Tolkein Colwries, Conchs.
I still have at least one linkia star (1+ yrs)
Anemone - long tentical (Percs are hosted in him)

Corals,
Blue Acro - long 10+"
Green table Acro ~8" across.
Small Blue Tipped Acro ~3"
Golden Toadstool 12+" across (beautiful)
Green Toadstool ~7"
Capricornis - 12 to 14 " round.
Colt ~18" (spread across several rocks.)
Galaxia (Beautiful - ~10")
Nice Bubble Coral ~8")
Gonipora (sp?) (several branches - 1.5 yrs)
Candy Coral
Several open & other Brains,
Several rocks covered in Mushrooms
Several large colonies of zooanthus

Rob

Hi folks,

Thank you for the many inquiries.

As of this moment, if you've spoken to me, and requested I reserve certain pieces, I am doing so.

If you have not spoken directly with me, I will be unavailable until tomorrow evening to respond to additional requests. I will update folks tomorrow night (Wednesday) on what is available, and follow-up on PMs.

The following are currently spoken for,
-- The Lineatus (Male) and Scott's Fairy Wrasses
-- The Percs and Anemone
-- Mandarin Dragonnet
-- 2 of the Maximas
-- Some of the Acro.
-- Candy Cane
-- The Green Toadstool
-- Chromis
-- Fire Shrimp
-- Small quantity of Live Rock.

Thank you,
Rob & Lisa

Hi folks,

I've had some wierd stuff happen tonight. An individual who indicated they were going to buy out my tank just redacted. I have a serious head ache..... This would have been a blessing for me, however.... it is what it is.

Everyone who requested livestock and I gave a commitment to your items are secure.

For those of you desiring rock. I will be moving corals into my sump, to make the rock available this weekend.

Live rock price is $4 a pound
Nick has 40 lbs reserved
Larry has ~ 80 lbs reserved
This leaves ~300 lbs (+)
The Colt is actually devided into large 2 pieces - $50 each
The Golden Toadstool is $75 (~ 14" across)
The Cap is going to Nina. Who says she'll take good care of it.
The 10" Squamosa is $75
The 6" Squamosa is 40$
The Maxima's are $30 each (2 are spoken for)
The lineatus Wrasse - Gabe are you taking him ?
Bali Slimer $40
Med. size Corals $25 to $30
Small Corals $10 to $20

The Naso - $40
Flame Hawk, $25
Coral Beauty $30
Dragon Goby - $25
Mandarin Dragonet will go with whoever purchases the largest quantity of rock.
Scott's Fair Wrasse - $40
Fat Head Anthia - $60
Serpent Start $10 each
Tiger Cukes $10 each

I've had a lot of trouble getting to the fish and shrimp. I expect that I will have an easier time when I move the corals to my sump.

I have a tank full of feather Culerpa and Chaet.

Thank you,
Robert A.
