  1. I've been messing around with a lot of lighting diy lately, I'll take all if someone hasn't already, pm sent
  2. I think I'll take a leap at the dragon bounces. Pmed.
  3. I'll take a birds nest and a digitata. I might be interested in som kenya trees for a kenya tree refugium experiment I've been interested in running.
  4. here ya go, unfortunately some of the zoas in one tank appear less colorful due to lighting+I grow them in high nutrients (makes them more brown than they are in most people's tanks)
  5. I have a few varieties of zoas and palys, let me take some pics when I can (if I can get home before the lights go off, otherwise it'll have to be tomorrow morning). I have extra firework clove polyps as well if those are zoa adjacent enough for you to want some. And completely swerving off, but I have a lot of ultra orange ricordea yumas, some of truly impressive size. Thought I'd mention the cloves and ricordeas if you have any interest, but Ibdo have many variants of designer zoas/palys that I simply don't rememver the name of.
  6. I have two cultures both a mix of rhodobacter spheroides and rhodopsuedomonas palustris. I've had some success with them when I was dosing more regularly, but time will tell. Sps was growing really well and stopped and took a turn a while after I stopped dosing, so I do wonder if there is a correlation. Something that I do with my cultures and also my reef is I supplement B vitamins. Rhodopsuedomonas (and maybe other pnsb) are limited by various B vitamins and it seems to help keep them going. P.s: have been meaning to ask about acquiring some cultures and some macro from you, but haven't had the time. Will shoot you a pm when I do.
  7. I'm most likely willing to take it, but what are the dimensions? And where is the pickup?
  8. Selling a tank with dimensions: Glass: 60x30x17 With the frame 61x34x19 for ~$300, or willing to consider trades as well It needs resealing, if I had the time I would reseal it and use it, unfortunately I don't.
  9. Likewise, if you decide to part out, I'd be interested in the red goniopora, peach alveopora, and red setosa
  10. Will take the trachy, scoly, meat coral, octospawn, favia, and gatorade zoas.
  11. Thank you for the write up, it was very informative. I wondered how the execution of that would work out and didn't find it reasonable that it would be so slipshod as to be that it's clear for trade as long as it slips into the country. I suppose there just wouldn't be a way to prove that it was acquired legally on an individual's end as well, even if they didn't acquire it themselves illegally. Would still be amazing if captive propagation was established, but the damage the hobby can do to a dwindling species before the aquaculture becomes feasible is way too much to be acceptable, and is better left to labs that will do it, with proper facilities to carry it out.
  12. https://cites.org/eng/taxonomy/term/6944 If this is up to date I think it should be CITES 2?
  13. If it doesn't end up selling to the pending buyer, would like to be second (?) on the list for them.
  14. Not much in the way of advice, but Custom Aquariums' lifetime warranty only applies to the original owner who purchased it. Anyway, following. Interested in the purple tang, blastos, purple plating sponge. Do you know how old the purple tang is? When was your last fish/non fish addition to the tank? And whereabouts are you located (since I need to see if/when I can fit a trip into my schedule)?
  15. I would recommend you just offer to save them if they're about to die, but not actually buy them. I've had/heard of some petco's where they will/might contact you and pass them on to you. But as everyone else said, you spend a cent and all you will do is reinforce their behavior. Never reward a business for subpar work, or else you'll perpetuate the problem they're causing. Could potentially also phone up their customer relations. On paper they say that "Any Partner who engages in behavior constituting neglect, mistreatment, cruelty or abuse of any animal will be subject to immediate discipline, up to and including separation from employment," so there's that. I bet it's just for pr and they don't do anything, but it's worth a try. Copy paste: CustomerRelations@petco.com or 1.888-824-7257.
  16. Been meaning to get a gigas clam for a while, wanted to see if anyone has one that they might be willing to sell or trade, though right now I mainly just have some zoas/palys of various types, ultra orange ricordea yumas (have some huge ones, think probably 5+ inches across), and orange tipped rainbow cloves (I think?). Would also be wtb.
  17. That works for me for the meeting. I'm not in a rush.
  18. I can grab as big a cutting as you can give me, would be up for grabbing it at the next meeting as well... but when and where is that anyway? Haven't seen a post on that yet.
  19. If you've got some left at the end I could probably trade you a sizable ultra orange ricordea, prefer about 6 berghia at least. Was attempting culturing berghia but got busy and couldn't keep it up.
  20. Magnetic frag racks, scrapers/basters, plastic containers, filter socks, both sets of pvc, nitrogen sponge, bucket lids, fish nets, coral nutrition, brs carbon, 100 watt heater (depending on condition), large mag float. Text sent. Hopefully the reentry into the hobby or whatever you plan to do going forward works out well. Let me know if/when you do get back in, I'd love to help kickstart you back with a few frags of whatever I have.
  21. I think I can grab everything except the 40g and the 29g. I'll touch base with you later today.
