EDIT: All gone, thanks everyone!

Time to break down the tanks as much as it pains me too. Splitting this into 2 threads, tank-by-tank to keep it manageable. Message me on times, ideally this weekend (like 31st). Pasadena. Prices negotiable especially with a photo of your tank.

This post is for the 20 long softie/macro tank. Generally first come first serve but priority to folks who can make it on this weekend or newer reefers I can help out. I'll put folks names who are down but even if there is a name, message me and i will put you down as backup.

No pests in this tank (zero aiptasia, flatworms). But note: this is the tank that had the unknown, presumably bacterial issue affect the fish last fall. Since that subsided in early Dec, there have been no flare-ups or signs of stress, not a single white dot. So I am pretty confident it was a random bacterial irritant. But full disclosure, that happened. And why tank is still a bit off, I dosed prazipro in November to be safe and its been settling back, currently on some green cyano as progressing through some fluctuations. Looks kinda grungy in these photos since I literally took these on the way out the door after a super rushed week, but for photos when this tank has been in its stride check out my main tank thread on SCR.

LTA + female pink skunk clown - $30: Ideally package deal. Super healthy ~12-16" diameter standard LTA that has easily tripled in size since I've had it. free if you can convince me you have a DSB and conditions for them to be happy.

Corals:
Green long-polyp Sarcophyton toadstool (~4" crown, allegedly 'weeping willow' but definitely not): $15
White long-polyp Sarcophyton toadstool (from Tangwich, his look better). $5 or free with some other corals

Grube's gorgonian bush, photosynthetic (~12"x6") - $15
Chunky gorgonian, photosynthetic (6" tall, two tips) - $10

Blue zoas (I'm bad with names but something named, Tangwich has some): $10 for whole rock
Little purple zoas: $15 for rock - These are AWESOME never seen them anywhere else, got from GSC on a random zoa disc. Admittedly i'm not a zoa collector but they're my favorite zoa in this tank.
Green zoas 20+polyps (some common but named variety that I forget, from someone in SCR) - $5 or free with others
Orange or Mandarin zoas, ~6-8polyps (something citrus-y, from @bakbay ) - $5 or free


PENDING - Pipe organ coral frag that needs rehab from algae - free

Macros:
Mangrove (not a macro I know, but...) - $5
Rose petal macro - mostly gone but still some handfuls left, $5 handfull or free with other stuff
Halimeda - free I have sooooo much please take as much as you can.

Inverts:
Trochus x2, tiny limpets (they don't get stuck in my wavemakers FWIW), conch x1, cerith x1. Free to good home.

If the slimmer is available still wouldn’t mind snagging that
@Bck2hobby is taking but i bet he wouldnt mind chunking it? it's a bit too large for anything short of a 5 gallon bucket and i'm honestly not sure how to get it out in one piece without fully removing the lights
