Been out of town just got back in late last night

Sorry, bluemoon74. If lucag decides not to take the clown then you can be next in line for it.

If the sell on the maroon clown falls through would love to be next in line.

Hi lucag,

I've just tried to pm the first person and they are still unable to receive messages. Since they have not tried to contact me to follow-up on their reply to my post (three days now), I'm assuming they are no longer interested. If you want the clown it's yours.

I'll pm you with my address and times I'm available.

Thanks!

This is an update with more pics. Note that I had to move these guys around quite a bit to get these pictures so the mushrooms are all shriveled in these pics. Just refer back to the pics in my first post to see how they really look.

I'll take the clown

Hi bluemoon74,

When would you be interested in picking up the maroon clown? I can try to have her/him caught before you get here.

I tried to pm you but got the message that you could not receive new messages. I can give you my address via email if you can't get a pm.

I'm a student and don't have time to keep my tank beautiful! (As you can tell by the glass) I'll also be moving again soon enough.

All the fish, coral and invertebrates are healthy and happy and have been for years. I'm selling all the livestock plus live-rock and the crushed coral substrate. Substrate will have to wait until everything else in the tank is sold and taken. Some of the hardware will be up for sale once the livestock is all taken (tank, stand, Odyssea light fixture with extra CF bulbs).

All fish are adult and have been healthy for many years. I moved them all here two years ago from California and they dealt with the trip excellently.

There are lots of mushrooms and anemones that I don't know the names for but they are pictured below. There's a budding leather type coral next to some mushrooms and it's obviously not happy about the location. I don't have experience transplanting coral so I've left it where it is. The mushrooms invaded its space.

There is also a small plastic breeder tank full of dark green macroalgae that I use as a scrubber. If I left the algae out it would get eaten by the foxface and tang within minutes! You can have the algae along with the breeder tank if you don't have a sump for the algae.

I've got plenty of styrofoam boxes to transport all the livestock. I just don't have thick plastic bags. When I moved all this to Texas I used thick black trash bags and everything did great.

Here is a list of the items and their prices. Cash only, please, and local pick up only. I am located in Harris Branch, Austin (near Manor)
