Greg, it's real. If I can sell the entire package, I'll rebuild my rock work and start over. The smallest colony I have would go for about $50 and I have probably 115 pieces. It's a great deal for someone with a large empty tank, no patience and a thick wallet.
Unlikely for sure, but it's on the table.

Haha, no, I can use the picture forum for that. Just an idea my wife and I came up with over dinner.

Motivated to change the tank layout. But dismantling and putting it back together is beyond the effort I'd put into it.

There's actually a couple people that I think may be interested. I could see a store wanting it, but Victoria is a bit small. I agree, I'll be shocked if I get any interest. It would be tough to move to the mainland, although it could be done.

with the size of your corals,

why not snipping off 5 frags of each colony, wait 4 months, so everything can heal, and than sell 100 colony's at avarage $40 = 4.000 + 500 x $15 = $ 7500

totalling almost $12.000, and you would hardly se on the corals that you cut something off

I think the $ 7500 on frags you wil reach faster than the 4.000 in colony's




not telling you to cut everything up, that would be a shame, but thee is some wiggle room somewhere 1/2 way

Aquattro
03-01-2013, 10:17 PM
Kevin, if I had 100 buyers lined up, that might work. but if I can sell 4 frags a month in town, I'm having a good month :)
This is about emptying my tank quickly at a fair price to me and a buyer, and rebuilding with a different look. I also don't have room to grow out that many frags for 4 months -lol

I suppose it could be done, but you'd need a heated truck, lots of water, pumps and separators in the tanks. And lots of coffee :)

What new look are you wanting in the tank? Got tired of the 'mature and awesome SPS filled reef' look?

Something more artistic. Maybe like that one with the right 80% as a shelf :)

Or more tabling pieces. Not really decided, and probably not going to get there. I also may have to dismantle the left side rock before it dismantles itself at 3am. Then I'll have a 3rd of the tank as "new" looking. Trying to avoid that -lol

It's proven difficult to get the stucco guy out here. It doesn't help that I'm holding out for him because he's my customer and he's doing it under the table for half the cost. Once the place is stuccoed though, it should go fairly quickly after that.
