Livestock FS in Findlay, OH

[jjjxlr8]

Sadly, after 11 years in the hobby, I need to take down my 125 gallon aquarium.

I will be moving and all of the livestock must go to a good home. If someone is also interested in the equipment, that may be possible after the livestock is gone.

Here are some photos...

Some of the livestock in the above photos is already gone but I still have some very nice stuff for sale.

I have a couple of large pieces, turbinaria peltata (pagoda cup - double) and a sarcophyton elegans (leather) that need lots of room. The turbinaria is about 12"x8" and is very heavy. The sarcophyton is about 8" tall.

I also have some really nice caulastrea furcata (candy coral) with full, mature, colorful polyps - two varieties.

Fish remaining: scopas tang, bi-color blenny (quite a character!), a large green chromis damsel, 4 large cardinal fish (two varieties), and a good size sixline wrasse. I have had all of these fish for over 8 years.

I really enjoy the hobby and this has been a tough decision to make, but unfortunately I need to sell.

I will not ship the livestock, so everything is local pickup only.

am intersted in the brains and candy canes,any sps?

[jjjxlr8]

I only have the smaller red brain remaining. The green one was as big as a football when fully expanded!

The red one is only softball size when expanded. $25

I have LOTS of the candy canes. For the brown polyps with blue/green centers and stripes: $40 for the large pieces (40+ polyps, each the size of quarters), $5-$15 for smaller pieces depending on size.

For the very bright green polyps, $60 for the large hemispherical piece (it must have 60 large polyps!), $10-$25 for the other pieces.

Sorry, no SPS corals.

The all glass tank and solid oak stand are in excellent condition.

I will consider reasonable offers from experienced hobbyists for the entire setup.

Nice tank shame you are leaving the hobby!

Are the actinic bulbs 4 footers? If so I could use a couple...

The Super Actinics are 46.5" long and are designed to fit inside a canopy on a standard 55 gallon tank.

I have at least two brand new, still in the box. Send me a PM or an email if you are interested.
