Thanks everyone for the interest. Everything is taken. Mike

Im moving out of the country next week for work, so need to find a good home for my livestock. I would be happy to donate all the livestock to a good cause or propose the following prices. The tank has been set up for about 2 years and doesnt have apparent pests. I am leaving at the end of this week, so would strongly prefer to have someone come by and pick things up today. Otherwise, it would have to be in the evenings this week. I live very close to the Clarendon metro. I also have a full (un set-up) Solana tank and stand that hasnt been used in 2 years that i would sell for 100$. The current livestock would fit reasonably well in this tank to make a complete set-up. Otherwise, my equipment is not for sale. Live rock (most have some sort of soft or hard coral attached, and a few pieces are covered with green star polyps): 2$/pound Rock with dozens of zoas and palys and a duncan: 40$ rock with birdsnest coral and 3 ricordias: 30$ red/green bubble tip anemone: 25$ fish (Melanurus wrasse, flame angel, occelaris clownfish): free Not very good photos attached.

***UPDATE*** Everything gone. Thanks everyone for your interest and helping me to find good homes for the livestock.

***UPDATE**** Sorry for the absence, its been a bit hectic here the last few days. Almost everything has been taken, and a few things are pending pickup tonight. The following corals are still available: ricordea rock (10$) starburst coral (10$) galaxea coral (10$) Only available for pickup tonight. Thanks everyone for your interest!

UPDATE: Mandarin goby and yellow sea fan SOLD PENDING PICKUP TOMORROW (first responders have been notified by PM. if not picked up tomorrow or agreement has been made to pick up on wed, i will contact next in line) Flame Angel Blue Green Chromis 2 Clown Fish Brain Coral Ricordea rock Fire Shrimp Sea Star Crabs Snails Some Live Rock Still unspoken for (remember, prices flexible if youre interested): Some live rock Gorgonia Starburst Yellow Polyps Also, I have mislabled- I do not have an Elegance coral, it is Galaxea (10$) instead. I apologize for any confusion. Thanks everyone for your interest so far. All PMs have been responded to. Mike

I dont remember when exactly i got it, but its been in the tank for at least 6-8 months. PM if you have more questions or want to come by to take a look.

Prices added. And mailbox cleaned out.

I'm moving out of the country this weekend and need to sell all of my livestock. I've been keeping a healthy (no pests, only a bit of bubble algae) 34g reef system for the last year. Lately, i have been traveling too much and havent had time to properly take of the system, so i have too much algae (my wife loves overfeeding the fish). I need to get rid of all of the livestock to good homes by Saturday, so would consider any reasonable offer (and would give some away for free). I am not planning on selling the hardware, but would consider selling the whole system for a good price (1000$ for hardware or 1200$ for everything). Here's what i have (and apologize for the bad pictures): ***I've added prices. All are negotiable, within reason.

Sorry for members who already read this in the members section. I wanted member to get first look... My wife and I are moving to Bangladesh in the next few weeks, so I will have to sell my beloved tank. It has been my obsession over the past 5-6 months, so we are really sad to see it go. Everything is in great shape, completely cycled and healthy. All the fish get along well and havent had any problems. I would like to get 500$ for the whole thing, and would prefer not to part it out.

Thanks, mike

Hey Riley, Glad to see you made it here!! I really wouldnt worry about it. You saw our place- its pretty old and there are people living beneath us. Anyways, when i asked our rental agency they told me it wasnt a problem (and at the time i was asking about a 90 gallon plus 30 gallon sump). I would try to align it perpendicular to the joists next to a load bearing wall if possible. Also, you might want to check up on renters insurance- not so much for it falling through the floor, but also in case it springs a leak. For us, it was really cheap and was worth the peace of mind. mike

My wife and i are planning on stopping by. Thanks, mike

Taken. Thanks.

Unfortunately, i was wrongly sent a red flame scallop yesterday along with some other stuff in an online order. After receiving it, i did some research and came to the conclusion that I dont have the knowledge or equipment to keep it healthy. Is anyone interested or know someplace close by DC that would make a nice home? Email me at uvaduthie@hotmail.com mike
