Everything for sale

Laura and Jim will be hosting the May meeting this Saturday the 12th and it will be the usual of food, drinks, raffle and fun.
 
Doors will be open at 6:00 pm for social talk and the meeting will start at 7:00.  Parking gets a little tight and the city says you can't park on 4th but there is a parking lot a block away.   Meeting is usually held in the backyard so feel free to bring your favorite lawn chair, weather permitting of course.

If you need address/directions, contact a club member.

Best if you park at Mini Mall (where the spaghetti establishment use to be)
 
You will get to see his new frag tank set up in the making.
 
Hope to see you there!

Everything must go!

The long story:

I've decided to get out of fishkeeping completely. I love the hobby, however, I have come to a realization that I have too many hobbies. I'm stretched thin and am not really enjoying any of them, so I have decided to get rid of some so I can devote more time and money to those I really enjoy. I have been keeping freshwater fish since the late eighties and got tired of it last year. Decided to give saltwater a go in January as it seemed more interesting. It is, and it's fun, but it's a real time and money hole and quite frankly I'd rather put that investment elsewhere right now.

So everything has to go. I'd like to get it all gone by this weekend if possible. If you want anything, call me at 531-9464. The fish, corals & rock have to go before the equipment, but you can come check the equipment out anytime. If you pay for it I will hold it for you until the creatures that depend on it are gone. I have tried to price everything fairly and inexpensive enough to sell fast.

My address, and directions to my house, are posted there as well, to save myself from repeating it over the phone dozens of times. However, I ask that you please CALL before coming over!

Ryan,

I am interested  mag 9.5 pump and test kit (Akalinity). I can give you a call tomorrow. Thanks.

[angelscrx]

Hold the co2 setup, 20lb brushed aluminum tank (still has co2 in it), dual gauge regulator, electric solenoid & bubble counter, paid $250, sell all for $150.   Scissortail dartfish $8 and Water level pump controller $75 .

I will see you tomorrow thanks

[angelscrx]

Not a bad set up I hate to see it go but I am pretty glad I could benefit from it!    JK Hey thanks Ryan good deals going on over there.  Just let me know when the system is down far enough for me to get the rest of my stuff and I may get more later.  Thanks

[Ryan]

Thanks Zul and Angel.

Angel, I found the new bubble counter. It was underneath the tank, sitting right there. See, I told you I put it in a safe place! Everytime I put something in a "safe place", I can never find it.

Oh, I also have a large, hairy hermit crab here. He's $5. He belongs to a friend of mine, I was "crab sitting" for him, but he doesn't have a place for him now and told me to just sell him. So if anyone needs a giant furry crab, he's here and he's affordable. (He has been known to eat queen conches and was banished to the sump for this behavior.)

[angelscrx]

If he's a hairy crab he's a zoo eater too.  He would probably be great for a sump or a refugium a a cleaner.

Ryan,
I will take the 2 cleaners and 2 of your maxi jets. If you still have them. Please let me know. Thanks.
Dashia

[Ryan]

Dashia -- Yep, I've got 'em. Do you want to come get them today?? We are going to be out running errands on and off, but give me call and I can arrange to be home anytime you want to come over.

-Ryan

[luvnsalt]

Sorry Ryan.
I will call you this week and arrange a time to pick up.

[mikeydog]

If zul falls through on the pump, I will take it.

[Zulreef]

If zul falls through on the pump, I will take it.

Sorry Mike,

I have already purchased the pump.

[Ryan]

Yep, Zul has paid for the pump. I still have a lot left; I'm making deals, so give me a call if you're interested in anything! If the tanks are not gone by this weekend I'm going to see about putting them on consignment at a fish store; they'll sell them for double what I'm asking, so if you want them, now is the time.

Here's what is left:

    * 65g glass hex tank with stand, plastic/glass top, optional eggcrate top & 45w light fixture. Good condition, has never leaked or otherwise been repaired. This is a very big, beautiful hex tank, we paid over $500; sacrifice for $100.
    * 50g glass sump with glass baffles, ~20g fuge area, eggcrate (& optional half glass) top: $100
    * 29g glass tank, drilled with bulkheads, used 1 month for holding/mixing new saltwater, $35 with float switch (just in case you want to use it for Ro/DI filling like I did).

    * (2) Nice Honeywell "turbo" fans, perfect for cooling tank, $6/ea, nearly brand new

All livestock is now gone. Those who have paid for equipment, you can pick it up anytime; I'll contact each of you privately. Other equipment is still available, so let me know if there is any interest.
