Sadly having to call it quits

columbusreef · 03/06/2010, 08:45 AM

Well I have made a very hard decision to sell off my livestock and equipment. I fell very ill and spent a week in the hospital and 2 more weeks at home unable to keep up with the tank. As you could imagine things went very bad, very quickly.
There are a few corals that are still thriving and the fish are doing great. I just don’t have the will to start over again at this time. Someday I will be back. However, I will set the system up such that it isn’t so “Hands On”.
I will start with the live stock and the equipment I can sell right away. Once that is gone then I will post the remaining equipment.

Fish
Medium Unicorn Tang $60.00
Large Blue Hippo Tang $60.00
Large Purple Tang $80.00
Pair of tank raised Bangi Cardinals $30.00
Coral Banded Shrimp $10.00

Coral
Large colony of Duncans (15 or more heads) $150.00
Pink Birds nest (needs some help) $10.00
Unknown tan with green polyps frag (SPS) $10.00
Med Porky Spawn (10 heads) $40.00
Unknown Yellow LPS coral $20.00

Equipment
Tunze Nano Wave maker (Less than 3 months old) $280.00

All prices I feel are more than fair. However please don’t hesitate to make an offer.
I will try to borrow a camera and get some pics in the next couple of days.

Thanks,
Travis

Sorry to hear you are calling it quits. Once its in the blood, it never goes away. Hopefully you'll be back in it with a more automated system soon.

I'll take the Bangaiis. PM me and I can come by and get them this evening or tomorrow if thats cool.
