Livestock for sale in Chicago area

I will be moving in May and will not be able to take my reef with me. :-(

I have a very healthy Yellow tang who has been with me for about 3 years, a lovely piece of frogspawn with two large heads, about 80 lbs of my own aquacultured liverock, several serpent stars, about 40 or so snails of different species, and numerous zoanthid pieces.

I will have pictures up later. I will sell everything for $150, or you can make an offer for each item. However, you will have to come pick it up as I don't have the time or know-how to do any shipping.

There is also about 200lbs of southdown sand in there that has become quite full of life which anyone is free to take after the other live stock is out of the tank.

Anyone interested will have to provide there own means of transporting these lovely critters. By the way, I am about 1 mile south of I-80-94 just over the Indiana border.

I would be interested in everything, depending on how much rock 150lbs. of cement looks like. Email me if you get some detailed pics. Jmolden87 AT aol.com

I will definitely take the sand, at the very least.

Thanks,
James

Also, just out of curiosity, what type of setup do you currently have? This is really well taken care of livestock and I would like to see that it goes to a hobbiest that can maintain that standard of care.

If you are going to part out what you are selling you will need to post prices on each item.

I don't have any recent pics of them, and my camera has already been packed and moved.

Sorry softbal4, I took the frogspawn, two of the serpent stars, and a couple of the leftover zoas on Saturday.
The yellow tang is very perky and happy looking. I wish I could have taken him.

Here is a shot of some of the little zoas that I took for my tank. Thought I'd help out with a picture if you're still looking to offload the rest of them.
