Getting out of the hobby (on this coast)

[goblinshark]

Hey guys,

 

Ben Frable aka Goblinshakr here. Some of you may remember me, I was pretty active in WAMAS about 4-5 years ago. I moved out to Seattle for college and now I live out there as a fish biologist. I have one tank still set up (all be in not in the best condition since im not here to take care of it, but my dad does alright, haha) and a ton of stuff lying around. My parents dont want it in their house anymore so I figured Id give back to wamas. Im only really back in town for a week, so Id like to try to get all this stuff out of here by next Monday. Also I would like to try to have people come by over the weekend but earlier can be arranged. Send me an email- bwfrableATuw.edu or a PM on the board.

 

I will try to update the list as things go! Also, prices may change!

 

Im located in BETHESDA, MD

updated- Ill try to post some pics when I get home tonight or tomorrow morn.

[Kingumar]

is it dead-live rock or just dead rock never been in water?

[goblinshark]

Dead live rock that was soaked in changes of RODI for a while then left to dry. It has been "dead" for probably about 3 years now so I dont know if nitrates or anything would be an issue?

 

Also:

 

Forgot to include:

 

13w PC retrofit for the hangonback refugium- its in housing but its rusty, so youll probably have to make something new- $15

[NBoris]

how big is the rock live and dead some pictures would be nice

Hey,

 

Perfect timing, I was just about to make some Richoridia purchases. I would like to take all of your Richordias for a Richordia garden if they are in good condition (pics would be nice, but I'll PM you).

 

Thanks.

Hey Ben -

 

Are you coming by the zoo at all? I'll take the CPR refugium, and I'll give you cash there if you are - cool?

 

Cheers

Mike

[Kingumar]

would like some picture of the rock

[goblinshark]

Ok guys finally got my camera working for some pics. I made an album on fb. Sorry, my actinic is pretty much dead so the lighting makes it look very yellow, Ill try to take some with the 20k MH over the tank.

The big rock as you see in the 5th and 6th pics. Its about 13" long by 9" at the widest point.
