Tank close-down: lots of stuff for sale: PICS!

[Rippin]

**Everything is sold**

Hello all,

Time to close down the current tank in anticipation of a larger tank.
With that said almost all of my coral, fish and live rock are for sale.

I'm located in Vancouver, close to city hall.

Now, before the parting list I'd like to mention a few things:

1. There is every type of algae on all of the rocks, although the pest algaes are few.
2. Many pieces of the rocks have some type of small coral stuck to them. Regardless, I will be selling the rock at a fixed price per pound, coral or no coral attached, unless otherwise noted.
3. The prices listed are firm...and they are extremely fair. Anything that I purchased at a LFS will be at half or lower of my purchased price. If you really want to know the retail prices of what I'm selling check out J&L or Ocean Aquatics. Anything that I purchased from fellow reefers will be lower than my purchased price.
4. Here is the order that I'll be selling the stuff: Corals, corals attached to rocks, live rock, fish and inverts, then tank and stand.
5. I will sell based on the order I receive the PMs. Don't say you'll take everything unless you mean it; be fair to the other reefers.
I will PM my address and phone number to buyers.

Coral pick-up is at 1pm this Sunday Jan 13.
The following week will be live rock and fish/inverts

6. Cash only. Bring your own bags, buckets, styrofoam blocks or whatever. I will supply the water.

And now the list:

Large Red Lobophyllia approx. 8"x6"x5"

Everyone, please see the original post for updates. Thanks

[Mik_101]

I would like the toad stool.

[Rippin]

Just a reminder to everyone who is buying stuff: Corals are this Sunday. Fish and others will be the following weekend, unless I've told you differently.

Sorry about that, but it's difficult to catch fish with so much coral and rock in the tank.

Thanks.

[Rippin]

I would like the toad stool.

Ok, I've put your name down for it.

PM me so that I can give you my phone number and address.

[Whatigot]

Oh MAN....
I never win....
Maybe I should just show up at one and capitalize on any no shows....
I wish I'd seen that Xenia and gsp....I would have paid double.

I will come out and take anything that does not get sold.
at this point in my reefing career I can not afford to be picky...lol

[Puff]

holy crap. i didnt even have a fighting chance with anything listed here.lol

wow!!

[Rippin]

Thanks to everyone who contacted me about the livestock.
It looks as if all of the livestock is spoken for. Rock and hardware are still available. Please see the original post to make sure I have your name down for the corals you've asked for.

Just a reminder to bring your own bags, buckets, styrofoam blocks (for those buying the hammer and frogspawn corals), or whatever carrying device you have.

Exact cash amount is preferred.

Parking: Please look at the parking signs on the street to see where you can park without getting towed.

Only corals will be sold this Sunday (unless I've told you otherwise).
Fish, shrimps and live rock will be the next weekend.
If you want to pick up live rock sooner then please PM me.

I'll see you all at 1pm-ish on Sunday (unless I've made specific arrangements with you).

Darren.

[dsaundry]

Thanks Darren for all the great rock,corals and pseudo etc. All survived the haul back to the "Wack" and are looking happy and healthy. It was nice meeting you and good luck with your new tank. :biggrin:

[Marlin65]

Just wondering if you have any sand left looking for some to seed my tank with. Thanks

[Rippin]

Just wondering if you have any sand left looking for some to seed my tank with. Thanks

The only sand I have left has already been washed so it's no good for seeding. I have an 1/8th of a bucket left. You are welcomed to have it.

[Marlin65]

Okay thanks for replying.
I do need it to seed so it's not going to work for me.
Thanks
