I have one male and two females on sale right now - http://www.pnwmas.org/forums/showthread.php?t=9162

You are very welcome. I hope they bring you as much joy as they brought me.

They are on sale right now at http://www.pnwmas.org/forums/showthread.php?t=9162

Frogspawns are sold, but if you want to come over on the 8th I can get the hermits and snails out for you. Douglas

Corals can be picked up early if I am available. I already have some getting picked up tomorrow evening at 7p.m. I can arrange for more pickups tomorrow also. Fish and Inverts need to wait because it would be too difficult to net right now (although maybe some inverts could be netted).

PM Sent. The Sailfin Algae Blenny is a Lawnmower Blenny. We'll see whats left. I am sorry, I do not have the expertise to ship. You can have someone pickup for you and ship themselves if you like.

Hello everyone, So, I have finally listed most everything I will have up for sale and have set the date. I am sorry I do not have pictures, I just don't have the time or the camera. I can sell things starting now as long as you can pay ahead also (cash, check, or credit card). I cannot offer any guaranty's as I can't control what you do with the item after you leave me. I will do my best to net and bag, but if you have your own buckets, bags, or containers that would be great. If you have any questions please feel free to PM me.

Haven't found one yet, but I am also pretty busy getting ready to sell my livestock, so haven't looked as much. Thanks though I am still definitely looking Its now pending for someone else. I just don't see how that does better than my ASM G-6, same similar design and mine even has more pumps and more air flow right now. Why are H&S considered good?

I have the best deal! LOL, when I sell off my livestock, I have two six-line wrasses that will probably go for $10 each.

Hey Ahren, I'll take probably 80 pounds.

A lot of people at ReefCentral are pushing the Becketts, saying best bang for my buck (unless I had unlimited bucks). But, everyone says different types of Becketts, what is the consesus around here? Or is that Reeflo Orca really superior to any Beckett and I should spend the little extra on it? (well I shouldn't say little, an extra $500 or so) Opinions appreciated

There are definitely some things I would like to get rid of and I am talking myself more and more into the idea of redoing some equipment and rebuffing the tank (which all will take time). So, I think I have pretty much came to the decision of selling my livestock over a weekend, first come first serve basis. I will work on a list this week with pricing and post it on here with plenty of time for everyone. I really think that is just the easiest option for me. It will be interesting to try and catch all the fish!

I also have to redo my lighting rig, some of my Fluorescents are having issues. Looks like lots of work ahead of me, LOL.

Thank You I do have a lot of livestock and its been fun. Many of the fish and inverts have great relationships and some fish have paired up, it would be a bummer to lose that, but if it was done once it can be done again. It would definitely be a heavy duty job either way I go. Thats a lot of Rubbermaid Totes! Plus it seems I would need some other people with aquarium knowledge to keep everything alive and as of right now I only have myself (although I do have others to move the tank). I appreciate your expertise and advice, I really do, but I would feel much better about moving a 75 gallon than a 450 gallon, LOL. I was thinking about this, but then I go back to thinking about taking the opportunity to buff the tank of its scratches, resetting the rocks into a new design, getting a new skimmer going, and finally adding a chiller to the system. It seems like a lot of work that probably won't get done over one weekend. In my mind nothing is irreplaceable. I have great relationships with my wholesalers and everything can be replaced, except for my Purple Chromis, which are really rare. But, again things have grown out a little and I would be going back a year in the whole cycle of things. Maybe its not as tough as I think to move the livestock. I don't know. I do have approximately 4 months to move the tank into its new location, so I have time to plan. Keep the advice coming.

I would be very interested in everyones opinion on this I have just purchased a new home (my first, getting out of my apartment finally), my family business is purchasing a new commercial building, and my parents (where the large tank currently resides) have decided to move closer to the new commercial building. We are all currently in Eugene and all of us are moving into Springfield. I am taking the tank to my new home since its much bigger than theirs. I have 2100 square feet of new space to play with. I don't feel its logical to move the tank with all of my inhabitants without losing quite a few during the process and I don't have anyone with a tank that could hold onto them for me. So, I am thinking about selling all of my corals, fish, and invertebrates so the move can be done much easier. How would I go about doing it? I am not sure I want to take the time to list each individual and take pictures, and list prices, and and and etc. I was thinking about having an open house one night so anyone can come see the tank as it currently is and open up everything for sale. I would set a specific time. Or just be available over a weekend and do a first come first serve and offer everything from $10-$30 a pop. Or are there other options? I currently have several of the following (approximately) - Acropora varieties, Pink Birdsnest, Montipora varieties, Horn Coral, Cauliflower Coral, Frogspawn, Pagoda Cup, Mushrooms, Xenia, Zooanthids lots of colors, Green Star Polyps, Yellow Fiji Leather, Toadstool Leather, Branching Birdsnest, etc. Also - Clams, Cleaner Shrimp, Coralbanded Shrimp, Sand Sifting Cucumbers, Tuxedo Urchin, Longspine Urchin, Scarlett Reef Hermits, BlueLegged Hermits, Cerith Snails, Turbo Snails, Nassarius Snails, Red Starfish, Fighting Conchs, Emerald Crabs, Rose Bulb Anenome, Bulb Anenome, etc. Also - Purple Chromis, Green Reef Chromis, Pajama Cardinals, Anthias (male and female), Oscellaris Clownfish, Tomato Clownfish, Sailfin Algae Blennies, Mandarin Goby, Six Line Wrasses, Scotts Fairy Wrasse, Leopard Wrasse, Yellow Tangs, Desjardini Sailfin Tang, Blue Tang, Purple Tang, Yellow Longnose Butterfly, Coral Beauty Angel, Sand Sifting Gobies (diamond watchman), Goby/Shrimp combos, etc. I am not 100% sure yet I will be selling off the livestock, but starting over isn't a horrible thought either. I would rather these animals live with someone else than accidentally die while I move them. I will not be selling any equipment, the tank, sand, or liverock (unless an animal is attached to it). Selling will also give the opportunity to buff the tank of scratches and change out equipment. What are your opinions? Thanks

Spazz is quoting me for a Volcano Skimmer, what does everyone think about Volcano? I think its going to be a Volcano 1850 that he quotes.

PM Sent about 1HP I am seriously thinking about the Orca 250 Pro with Needlewheel and maybe still running my ASM G-6 for extra skimming power. I am thinking about draining the overflows from the tank straight into the skimmers - Is that a good idea?
