Last chace for deals - make me an offer - reasonable offers will be considered.

NOTE: if you offer me too little, and it's less work for me, I'll just be throwing things away. The clock is ticking and I'll be pulling the plug and tossing everything in the trash soon! So pick your bargain.

if you throw things away can you let me know so I can be there to take them out of the trash!! lol!

+1 pm if you do! I'll be happy to take some donations, but no spending for me right now unfortunately... :(

It's almost like greed," if u won't pay what I paid I'll just throw it out" and then we wounded why are oceans are being depleted of coral,it's cause of stupid ppl and greed

No I just got a PM from this guy...he's serious.. he'll just toss them. Why kill living things, donate them, do a blow out all corals listed for $100... better then killing off living things for no reason. Great way to start off on the forum, but judging by his attitud, he's only here to dump stuff and never come back. I feel bad for his poor fish if they have the same fate coming.

added:

i don't feel you should be welcome here on this forum for publicly telling people you're going to kill things if they don't step up and buy them off you. I will ask the mods to review this. as I don't think this is what the forums stand for at all. we preserve, trade, grow these things and take the time to take care of our livestock and tanks... not "throw everything away"

The sell option should really only be available to members who have met certain criteria, ie, length of time of membership, activity etc. Not created specifically to offload stock or tanks. This is done in other forums and prevents this type of activity from taking place. This would ensure the legitimacy of the member and what they are selling. Theres been a number of new members with links to kijjii selling off goods. I don't think I've ever communicated with someone to buy from who's only been here for a few days/weeks.

Threatening to throw live corals away is not cool and totally irresponsible as a hobbyist.

What about the guy who is shutting down, never heard of Canreef before, and as his first post, is offering frags and fish for a dollar just to find homes for them. Or the new guy offloading his brand new LEDs for $20 because he's getting deployed to the middle east tomorrow.
We allow posts by new people so that old people have exposure to deals they might not otherwise see. Works out for seller and regular members all around.

Yes, we get the occasional person like this threatening to toss things. Not much we can do, and frankly, looking at his pics, the stuff is dead already. Large white acros don't sell that well.
But maybe someone will buy something, and for sure they won't if this is removed. So which is better? Sure, if it was me and I HAD to get rid of it today, it would go to the fish store. Maybe trade for a credit I could sell. Or it would go to a school. I just gave a local school a 120g tank, they love it. But this guy is threatening to throw stuff out, so let him. His loss. He owns it and can do whatever he wants, and really, the impact of this guy on the oceans isn't that great.
He's trying to get a response out of you guys, and it's working. Honestly, with his attitude, the stuff is likely better off dying quickly in the dump today than spending time suffering in his care.
Either buy it, or ignore him. You aren't going to change him. If his mother couldn't make him right in the last 16 years, you aren't going to change him in a couple of posts. Just add him to ignore if he really bothers you. As for the original thought of minimum reqs to sell, I think we're all better off without that type of limit.

He did not through things out. I got them all for free. He just said that he threw things out to the mouthy people to shut them up.

Why shut people up ????
Sales could have been made ....

It's sad that people couldn't find homes for the critters ..

[Flash]

Lol he said that before any one "mouthed" him off... What a joke! Glad you got them, try and keep them a live! And your wife will love it cuz it was free!

[Davidbugera]

He would throw them out was in the first of he's posts so long story short this guy should get beat down and thrown in the dumpster, just a NG piece
