supernareg, did anybody try to low ball you when you put your 20L AGA set-up FS for $2000 a few months ago?

Nice set-up btw. Wondering if Emdy (John) would be interested in the tank.

[MammothReefer]

Heh, It's not a fire-sale. I don't have to get rid of it. I just feel that maybe I should sell it all off take a break and revisit reefing down the road If I feel my interests are still there, I've spent the last 5-6 years taking care of 1 tank or another with no breaks, and would like to see if I'm still as passionate about reefing with the system gone, or if I'm just reefing because I have been for so long.

as far as 500$.. I can ebay the skimmer alone for 500.... and In all honesty I think for anybody willing to drive up to Mammoth Lakes, and pick this up all it's a smokin good deal, between the dendros, the 2 Australian elegance, the skimmer, tunzees, and lights thats about 3k worth of stuff right there..

[supernareg]

okay guys, if u didnt figure it out, i was JOKING....

i shoulda put a after it or something, sorry didnt mean to offend you guys.

[MammothReefer]

heh, not offended.

Oh, also that is just the short list of corals, I have various candy mushrooms, echinpholyias, enchinporas, cypstestrais, zoanthids, cup corals, lots of random stuff.

[Konadog]

MammothReefer, didn't you guys just move up to Mammoth last year?

If the reef is taking up to much time and $$, sell off the coral, some of the equipment and lighting and make it a fish only tank. The tank size is a great size!

[HenryTran]

that is the perfect dimensions.

No, I'm going into my 4th year up here now. I just setup this tank a year ago in Sept though, before that I had a 90 gallon (36x24x24). As far as parting w/just the corals.. I've thought about that, but I really never was a fan of fish tanks.. It's always been about the coral for me, and it takes up a ton of room (between the rk2 bin, the tank and the frag system). It's kinda an all or nothing deal for me at this point.

[AQUA951]

If you part out, i'll be interested in all of your tangs!

[rob408]

If you part out, I'll take your angels...and your BM 250...maybe even more...if you were selling in May of next year, I would be all over this whole set up...

[wsun083]

pm box is full

[MammothReefer]

cleared up

[jjb81speed]

wow, nice set-up! perfect leemar size display!

[MammothReefer]

Thanks for all the great feedback. Just a couple side notes.
I know some of you want pieces ect, but please understand I don't want to part it out, the last thing I want is a half running system that is going to be more work for me to deal with, I'm not selling it because I need the cash, I'm considering selling it to take a break. Also, if you are not an experienced reefer to some extent I don't think this is the right setup for you. I'd really hate to sell it to somebody to later read that the anenomes got stuck in the overflows and the acros all bleached and died.

Thanks

Better do it before the snow starts.

[MammothReefer]

Ya ha, thats another motivating factor.. once the snow hits, my garage is frozen shut until April.

[MammothReefer]

Still available, would love to do this, this weekend. Something is going on with the electricity in my house and I keep popping my main breaker.. I'm afraid it's going to happen at nite and I'm going to loose everything, so no reasonable offer will be refused.
