GreenJeans Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 My life situation has changed over the past year and I no longer have the time or space in my home to give my tank the attention it deserves. I wish it weren't the case, but I need to start getting rid of my system (and hope to set up something a bit smaller in the near future!). To be honest, this whole process feels a bit daunting - just the idea of catching the fish out of my tank to sell them off sounds near impossible, and most of my corals are encrusted onto rocks...Any tips, advice, or help would be very much appreciated! I assume I'll need to move all my corals first, so I can actually catch the fish... Best offers for all livestock accepted Left to right along the bottom: - Stylopora? - single frogspawn head - rock covered with red/yellow zoas and a small patch of branching GSP - rock covered with lots of branching GSP - small rock with some other GSP/clove type coral - large rock with two kinds of montipora, some other GSP type coral, some orange zoas - medium rock with orange zoas and blue/green palys? - large rock with brown/green palys, some blue zoas, blue sponge - medium rock with purple/brown zoas and ultimate blastos - medium rock with lots of branching GSP - medium rock with lots of mushrooms - kenya tree? - purple plating sponge - Incredible Hulk Leptosirus - green favia - stargazer? - some other favia type coral - big head of frogspawn, maybe 10 heads, 8" across? - stag coral - lots of RBT nems (easiest if you take the rock it's on with it) See the pics, ask questions, I'll try to add more/better pictures! Fish: - Breeding clownfish pair - Large Foxface rabbitfish (potential fin rot? Tried to treat with kanaplex/metroplex, no change) - Large Purple tang, healthy - Medium/Large Hippo tang (Scale issues? HLLE? Hasn't progressed or changed much, hasn't responded to any treatments I've tried) - Anthias harem, 7 Bimacs and 1 Lyretail, healthy - 3 Green Chromis - Midas Blenny - Magnificent Flasher wrasse Equipment: - Custom Aquariums 2x2x4 low-iron .5" thick glass aquarium with stand (lifetime warranty) - 3x Kessil a360x with 4x 48" T5 Aquatic Life fixture - Varios pumps - Vortech/Red sea reefwave power heads w/ battery backup - Trigger Systems sump (42" I think?) - Kessil refugium light - oversized red sea skimmer - large UV - Chiller (3/4hp I think?) - Apex system with Trident - Rodi filter - Salt/Fresh water storage - other stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadAShark Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 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)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerald525 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 You will get more parting it out but if you are too busy and feel too overwhelmed you can just pack up all the coral in bins. Take the big rocks out first and then catching the fish are easy then take it all in to a local fish store. Once the coral is out you have time for the tank to sit. While it is sitting you can soak it in vinegar or citric acid or just leave it until you have more time or you can just see what a fish store would give you for a tank. (Usually not much but sometimes it is worth it to not deal with the hassle) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenJeans Posted January 31, 2023 Author Share Posted January 31, 2023 The tank itself is about 3 years old. Everything was quarantined following humblefish's protocol prior to addition, and the last addition to the tank was about a year ago. I'm not sure the best way to price things, but I've been getting a lot of interest in the purple tang, anthias, zoas, and frogspawn. Please feel free to make offers, I hope my pricing is reasonable. Located in North Portland Purple tang - $200 Clownfish pair - $100 Anthias - $240 for the harem zoa rocks - $50ea Frogspawn colony - $100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colbymac92 Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 I will take the fox face and hippo! I have a fish free lowboy 55 frag tank that could use some help with a little bit of algae and a Red Sea 625xxl display tank that is perfect for tangs.
