I think I can grab everything except the 40g and the 29g. I'll touch base with you later today.

Ooh, wish I saw this when I got the phyto from you. Can those rotifers survive/breed in the reef? Would be great if I could get some that can colonize my tanks.

If you're going to be heading southwards sometime I could probably hook you up with some orange clove polyps (I think you mentioned you didn't have those) for those bags and maybe some pink b chalice? Does that type of chalice grow well in high nutrient tanks? I keep euphyllia, acans, blastos, yumas, and a goniopora fine, but have heard the chalices are very varied. Located in Tigard and pretty busy lately, so probably can't make the whole trip to Vancouver.

I'll take a 2" leather, the christmas acans, and the purple and orange zoanthids. pm sent

I'll take it, pm sent. Edit: I've decided to pass on it. Should be available to the next buyer.

If you manage to keep them in good conditions, and considering they're eating, they can regrow a skeleton. Treat them like a mushroom that's not attached to a rock: minimal flow, container of some sort, and something to grow onto. If you can do it without hurting it, putting it back onto its original skeleton should reduce the amount of work that it does. If they're eating, you should have a good shot at it. Whether it's "worth" it considering that is subjective, but I personally would try to save them. In the future, try not to let the downswing happen, but more importantly, don't raise it back up so fast either. It's a bigger shock going up than down.

Particularly collonista snails, dove snails, and dove conches (used to be sold as "strombus grazers" on ipsf). I have some stomatellas, but haven't had success due to predation by a trigger in my display tank (the lack of enough shell means they're too easy a snack, unfortunately). Also open to other snails/cleanup crew I don't know of which accomplish CuC goals lol. Already have some detritus worms and micro bristlestars as well as some combo of pods. Have avoided astraea stars and bristle worms thus far. To some extent I'd just like diversity and a population of CuC that is self sustaining as I find that pretty cool.

I'll take the whole lot, sending pm, seconded with SE PDX Reefer though, would like to see.

Hmm, you're not that far from me. If islandvib3s doesn't take it, I will, let me know.

Sending you a pm

I cannot recall what each are called, but I have some extra of a couple types of mushrooms and some zoas and palys Have been running some 10k bulbs for growth so unfortunately the lighting and the glass that needs cleaning doesn't do them a ton of favors, but the overflow climbing zoas are pinkish orangish, the palys are mostly purplish with some greenish hue to them, there are the bright orange mushrooms which I believe are rhodactis, and the relatively common but still nice green rhodactis. I have some other zoas which I have less of/are in harder places to remove, so these 4 are corals I'd be up for trading. I'd also be interested in adding more zoas/palys if you want to trade more pieces. If anyone else who sees this is interested, I'd also be willing to trade for more lps/zoas/palys. But yeah, back on topic, let me know if you'd like to trade your pieces for some of what I have. oh yeah, I have a ton of extra devil's hand leather if you'd like some of that as well

Would help a lot if you post dimensions on the tank+stand.

I'll take it if IslandVib3s doesn't by end of day. thanks!

I'm willing to take them all, where are you located? Corvallis or NE Portland?

When was your most recent addition to the tank? I'm interesting in the blue jaw trigger (is it male or female) and the coris wrasse, but I may need to consider a quarantine depending.

I'll take it, then. PM sent.

Might be interested in the brittle starfish, is it a green one? I hear those are somewhat carnivorous.

I might be interested in your snails and the harlequin tusk if you end up parting out. Has your tusk been aggressive with clean up crew? I know every fish has a distinct personality, so if it's been relatively docile, I'd love to have it. Maybe some bta's too depending on coloration, as well as the flower anemone. Might be interested in your skimmer and dual reactor as well. Otherwise, GLWS, hope you can find a single buyer instead of having to part out.

I believe there was a member here that did quarantines for people for a charge, but I don't recall who it was and that was with fish. Frag rack rental sounds good but in practice would be too much risk on both people's parts. Sometimes things just die, even in the better maintained tanks. Frags often need dipping and quarantining themselves so there's that (else you risk killing the stuff you already have). I'm sure you could make it work if you really want buuuut... If you're new to the hobby I'd honestly recommend just waiting on it. Setting up and getting running takes quite a long time (cycling is just the start, your tank usually needs to stabilize which can take time), and honestly new things you'll want will come around. And it's a good time to start building up the patience needed that comes with watching sticks grow 🤣

Also sent a message.

Pm sent about some zoas and the sunkists

I'd be interested in a frag of that japanese toadstool. Pm sent.
