Thanks Brian, yeah this is the tank... Most of your old livestock got moved to my Dad's tank when I took down my 65 and never got back... :) He recently took down his tank and it all got sold off. :(

Cliff, unfortunately I'm serious... :( We have so much work to do on our basement before the baby get's here in November and I have no funds for any of it. On the bright side, when the basement is done, I'll be able to focus on my fish room and basement tank.

Got you down for all the livestock. :)

Thanks Doug, I really appreciate the offer but I'm not sure on lights yet so who knows what I'll be doing when I'm ready to set back up, maybe I can help out someone else trying to get some cash. Enjoy the vacation!

Thanks bro, I want to hold on to as much rock as I can, but I'm sure a couple corals will go with the rock. Sand is available, but it's pretty solid due to buffering so I wouldn't recommend it other than for seeding new sand. Your call though.

The pumps work great, let me know if you want to come over and hear them while the tank is still running. They are about 9 months old and look great! Let me know if you want them.

Sent reply, Maxima is sold. Both Crocea's are available but need FWD and Q-tank before being added to a new tank due to PM.

Due to PM?

[Deuce67]

PM meaning pinched mantle.

[calvin415]

Yep. :) Only thing left for livestock is my very large blue millipora... Dan (NormanViking), you loved it, you interested!?

[Deuce67]

Man, livestock went fast!

[calvin415]

Well Haj did a big buy... Trying to get hold of him so I can deliver tonight. :) After that just one large milli and if people want to frag it out I'll do it, but I'll need 5 people with 20 each... Post a message if you want in on it.

[Crit21]

not sure about QT. According to http://www.wetwebmedia.com/tridacdisfaqs.htm "What is called "Pinched Mantle" in tridacnids is caused by "a protozoa" according to Barry Neigut. He has found that a good rinsing (while shaking) afflicted clams in pH adjusted freshwater for a minute usually effects a lasting cure."

[calvin415]

The QT is just like any other QT, it's to ensure the protozoa isn't introduced into it's new tank... Once it's in there you probably won't get it out. The FWD is not a lasting cure as the clam will contract the protozoa again once it's put back into the same tank.

[calvin415]

Well as luck would have it, Haj hit a deer tonight, so now everything's back up and available...

[Crit21]

What about that teal acro I was looking at in your dad's tank? Still have it?

[calvin415]

I have a frag of it, but a guy in Denver is supposed to pick it up tonight. I'll let you know if he doesn't. I do still have the blue tipped chips from my dad's tank along with his tort and blue milli although someone is interested in the milli but not commited.

[Crit21]

I already have a ton of milli from Coreefer and Avs21--blue, pink, purple and green highlights. What was the frag I got from you? It's still too underdeveloped to display significant colors yet, but it may have come from that teal acro on the left side of his tank.

[COreefer]

Well as luck would have it, Haj hit a deer tonight, so now everything's back up and available...

Canon City isn't all that far..why don't you work out a deal to drop it to him??? :confused:

[calvin415]

I was already planning on meeting him in Penrose last night... :(

[calvin415]

Haj, you still want some stuff if I deliver? I have sold a couple corals, but most are still available...

[ReefJerk]

Hey, Eric, what time is good for me tgo come get the livestock today? I should be back in the Springs by 6, maybe 6:30.

Cliff

[calvin415]

Cliff, does tomorrow work? I'm trying to get the Denver order to happen tomorrow as well and then I can get the rock out of the tank. I'd pull it out tonight but I've got a bit of money tied up in these last corals and don't want to kill them...

[ReefJerk]

Tomorrow I will be tied up in a meeting until at least 8:30. So, if 9 o'clock is too late for me to get to your house, then Thursday will work as well. Actually, whatever works best for you, just let me know.

[calvin415]

Well the sump will be gone tomorrow night, so just come on over when you get into town and I'll have them bagged up for you. :)

Oooo, I didn't expect payment that until Saturday...

Thanks Todd and Big Thanks Keith for doing that delivery for me!

Todd let me know how they do, the branching blasto didn't look good this morning for some reason, but the lights were off so it's hard to tell.

[Deuce67]

Sigh... Its true...its gone...all gone....:sad1:

[green wrasse]

Eric, let me know on the lock lines and what sand you have left thanks

[calvin415]

Yeah, I'm pretty sad about it too Russ... :( I just have to stay focused on my fish room and how cool that will be... you guys gonna hang me if I go FOWLR? I really want angels!!!

Russ, (green wrasse) I'll have the loclines ready for you tomorrow if you like, or late tonight if you don't mind them being dirty... The sand will probably have to wait until tomorrow evening though, I won't have time tonight to try to take everything down. Just let me know when you want to come by. :) I'm headed out between 6:30 and 8:30 though...

[calvin415]

Cliff, I hope you're on your way bro...

[green wrasse]

Eric, no rush on either maybe fri. evening or sat. whatever works for you I erased the pm with your phone# though.

[calvin415]

No problem, I'll post it here if anyone needs it. 271-0406 or 325-9986. Everything is now sold, including a pending sale on the skimmer. :) Thanks everyone for helping me out!!!

I'll be soaking the skimmer, the loc lines and the tank starting tonight and it's good to give it a few days... Just give me a call when you want to come get them. :)

[ReefJerk]

Thanks for the shrimp and fish, Eric. Everything was doing great when I released them last night(at around 11). One of the Purple Firefish actually ate while I was feeding my Sun Coral. The Fire shrimp went straight to the skunk cleaners to hang out with them without incident. The peppermints, well you know peppermints, they just sat on a rock bobbin back and forth :)

Thanks again and good luck with your new tanks. That 12'x2'x2' would be really sweet. :)

[calvin415]

Thanks for the update Cliff, glad to hear everyone is doing great! :) I was thinking last night after you left and I plan on a full length external overflow too. I'll need some material for that so I'm thinking 144x20x20... Anyone think this is too small for some large angels and tangs?

[calvin415]

To put it in perspective, here is my inspiration tank... 96x14x14

I'd go 144x24x24

[calvin415]

Only problem is I won't have enough material left over to build the overflow and will have to buy another oversized sheet and then not use it all... :(

[calvin415]

I figure two 144x48 sheets will net four 144x20 pieces and leave me about 7 inches to use for the overflow box (minus an inch for trimming and cutting). Take the two 144x7 and I have my coast to coast overflow box and all 4 144x20 pieces... I'll still need to come up with materials for the ends but they are small and won't cost nearly as much. :)
