Life has taken a turn in an interesting direction for my wife and I. In the said turn of events we are going to be relocating and I REALLY don't want to move my tank again.

So, I have decided that I am going to sell my entire aquarium, livestock and all. I am going to start with the livestock and then go from there obviously.

I would like to start with selling (Cry) my beloved zoanthid and Palythoa collection. I would like to sell my entire collection all at once. I am going to ask $800 for my entire Z&P collection. Once that is gone I will post the rest of the stuff. I am only interested in serious buyers and will only entertain serious offers.

and a host of others. I have 30 different kind in total. I am not going to break it up unless the offer is undenyable.

Sorry to hear that... Are these colonies or in frag plugs? I might be interested in grabing half when I get my tax return.

If you do split anything up I would be interested in the Rainbow Delights and the Red Death Palys. Good luck with everything.

Gald you are able to work things out in the end. The move will be good for your relation ship trust me. My wife and I went through something similar and now we have two beautiful little girls. Do you have any fish up for sale as well?

Ya guys, thanks for the support. It was one of the hardest decisions to make....to get out, or not. I have been in this hobby for more than 7 years and have been growing my current collection for more than 4 years. I am not sure I am completely done with the hobby, but I am more so taking a hiatus for a while until we get things straightened out. When I decide to return I plan on getting a rimless 150 in our new house.

As for the Zs & Ps and any other livestock - some are on frag plugs some are on rocks, none have less than 3 or four polyps / heads. As even in buying frags I prefer that they are 3 polyps or more, as they seem to grow faster that way. If for some reason they do I will let you know. I am not opposed to taking pictures of stuff....lol.....as you all probably know by now that I can. If you want a picture of something, I just ask that you be patient as I have a very busy schedule in the next couple of months.

Thanks again. let me know if you have any questions. I will try and update the original post with everything I have tonight, I will also update with (Sold) when an item is no longer available. Thanks again for all your help!
