Breakdown sale

[trahelyk]

It's time for me to get out of the hobby, so I'm looking for good homes for some close friends. The tank has been running since summer of 2015. Nothing new has been added to the tank since November 2017, which is when I added the mandarin dragonet. No signs of parasites or infections among the fish, but there is an outbreak of clove polyps on the rocks on the left side of the tank. I've marked the corals on those rocks with an asterisk, and I've discounted them. Please let me know if you think something here is mispriced. I'm happy to negotiate. 

Fishes:
1 lawnmower blenny ($10)
1 Bangaii cardinal ($10)
1 yellow striped cardinal ($10)
1 mated pair of skunk clowns ($15)
2 blue damsels ($5 for the pair)
1 6-line wrasse ($15)
1 tiny green mandarin dragonet (captive-bred from Biota, eats frozen--the prize of the tank!) ($75)

Corals:
1 large (about 14") red tree coral ($30)
1 ~6" diameter rock covered in green hairy mushrooms ($20)
1 small (1" diameter) green maxi-mini anemone ($10)
1 medium (4" diameter) green toadstool ($20)

1 large (about 10") green tree coral ($20)*
1 large (about 8" diameter) short-polyp brown toadstool ($20)*
Green mushrooms ($1 each)*
2 medium (about 3") zoanthid colonies ($5 each)*
1 small (about 2") zoanthid colony ($2)*
1 golden torch, in the process of splitting into 3 heads ($10)*

* Corals marked with an asterisk are on rocks where clove polyps are growing.

Inverts:
1 pincushion urchin ($5)
1 black longspine urchin ($10)
3 fighting conches ($5 each)
A handful of trochus snails ($1 each)
1 large snail of unknown species ($8)
1 large nassarius snail (see photo, $10)
Some unknown quantity of scarlet hermit crabs ($1 each)

[R-3]

1 large (about 10") green tree coral ($20)*

How could I forget the photos? 

 

That torch is having a bad day after this morning's water change.

I would be interested in the torch and the Mandarin goby also the blasto if it is available (light purple green)

PM sent

[Brian Tesch]

Im interested in the red and green tree corals. Ill send a PM.

[trahelyk]

Hey, thanks to everybody who has sent me messages about this stuff. FYI I'm a bit buried at work, but I got your messages and I'm putting together a list of who spoke up for each critter first. I'll be in touch shortly. Thanks for your patience!

I would take the short polyp leather and the pincushion urchin if still available 

[trahelyk]

I have bites on the leathers and the urchins already. I'll let you know if either of those fall through. Also, I think I've responded to everybody who messaged me about this stuff. Please let me know if I missed you. I'm trying to arrange a bunch of pick-ups this weekend, and then I'll post an updated inventory next week. Thanks to everybody who responded to my listing!

[Krux]

Wish I could help you out in rehoming your friends, but I need to be realistic and know my tank is too young to provide a good environment.

 

Best of luck!

[trahelyk]

Well, the corals are all gone. Here's an update on who still needs a home:

Fishes:
1 mated pair of skunk clowns ($15)
2 blue damsels ($5 for the pair)
 

And then once I catch my breath I will list all the equipment I have for sale. 

[trahelyk]

FYI all the livestock have found new homes. I'm spread pretty thin right now, so I'm just slowly cleaning up the equipment and making an inventory list. Might be quite a while before I post the equipment, but if there's something you want, feel free to PM me in the meantime. Right now I have just all the things that a compulsive shopper with a 73 gallon fish tank might have.
