+bigsby Posted May 3, 2015 Author Share Posted May 3, 2015 Thanks Sascha. I honesty couldn't tell you for sure. I got him from someone's tank I purchased a while back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+bigsby Posted May 3, 2015 Author Share Posted May 3, 2015 I got a few more placed and mounted. The transition back to metal halides has gone fairly well. Most of the corals seem pretty happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jolt Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 The growout is going to be amazing. Looking forward to update shots as things take off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+bigsby Posted June 3, 2015 Author Share Posted June 3, 2015 As amazing as the growing would be it looks like things are going to be going another direction. I have been discussing selling my house with family friends and neighbors and received an enticing cash offer from someone in the neighborhood on my house this past week. After meeting with them this morning it looks like everything is a go. As much as I am not ready to move everything they need to be out way sooner than I planned. I am trying to update my membership so that I can post a ton of stuff for sale but as of right now almost everything I have is going to be for sale. I have storage I can move it into but I would rather not. I will try to get all items listed and I have a ton of stuff to list. I will be selling the entire 215 gallon tank, stand, canopy, sump, return pumps, and lighting system all together if anyone is interested. I will obviously need to rehome the fish and corals as well. I may keep a smaller tank with some of my favorite corals but as for now everything is to be sold. I'd rather rehome it than lose anything in the transition. Please pm me or message me one cell at 512-653-5415 if I have anything you are interested in and we can discuss a fair price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reburn Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Wow you and Robb in the same morning. And Ty announced he is going LEDs. I'm speechless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+bigsby Posted June 3, 2015 Author Share Posted June 3, 2015 Yeah. I won't be gone for too long I don't think. And I'll more than likely be upping to a 280-300 gallon in the process and going LEDs myself. My main concern are my fish. As my wife and daughter have become rather attached to them in the last couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juiceman Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I will help rehome some Coral! I could even help you out with some 6' LED strips from BML later this summer! staying tuned can't help with those tangs, I already have one of each of those.

+bigsby Posted June 8, 2015 Author Share Posted June 8, 2015 Thanks. I'm not excited about selling the tank. But I will definitely be purchasing another tank in the near future. I am even considering picking up Don Duncan's 300 gallon A.G.E. Tank but I may have to wait cause I would rather not have to store it. The good news is that I took a deposit on my tank and don't have to worry about moving it. I've been looking for a way to upgrade and this essentially forces me to do so. Now I need to get at least 80-90% of the coral sold and figure out exactly what to do with the fish. We refuse to allow any of them to go to someone with a smaller tank than they are in as well as anything that's not fully established with a good track record of being able to care for them. If anything I will donate them to either the Galveston Aquarium or to Sea World where they can live out their life in the Sting Ray exhibit and have plenty of room. I'm not concerned about what they are worth as much as I am concerned on the care they will receive in the future. If you see a picture of anything I have that you are interested in or are aware of anything I have listed in my build thread please let me know. I want everything to go to good places and be taken care of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOceanTraveler Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 I can't wait to see your up grade when you get it going. Let me know if you want me to babysit anything. Congrats on selling the house and the tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
