its time for me to get out....recent events proved to me that i dont have the time to keep up a tank anymore...maybe in the future i'll be back but as for now heres my complete set up for sale!

i want to sell everything as a package and not seperate it so this will be an awesome package for whoever gets it

the tank is a 48x18x15 with 2 holes drilled...i got a prefilter box from john at AA to cover it and a loc line return, the stand is DIY with 2x2 and plywood skin painted black (not the prettiest but its sturdy), the light is a nova extreme 6 bulb (might need new bulbs), and as for the ghetto hanging set up its 2x4's bolted to the back of the stand with shelf brackets as arms holding the 2 point hanging wire from rapidLED. the sump is 36x12x18 (i think) with 3 chambers. it comes with a good sized skimmer (i dont remember the brand) but it has a sedra 5000 with needlewheel, also has a small 9 watt pc fuge light, and a mag 12 as the return. im also including a couple misc stuff i have like hydrometer, 2 lights used test kits, water clarity, purple up, iodide, a 50 gallon bag of coralife salt mix, specimen container, copper for QT, and the mounting legs for the nova extreme. im including the dead rock (40lbs) and dead sand (60lbs). also! not pictured is a BNIB JBJ ATO and a bottle of Microbacter7 to get u going.

im asking $600 o.b.o which means im losing out on about $150 but meh it is what it is....i'll be breaking it down and moving it to my back yard tomorrow morning so if u want to pick up tomorrow morning that'd be the best

ill be up for a little while so text is the best way to get a hold of me!

peyote cactus is lophophora williamsi....san pedro is echinopsis panachoi (if i remember correctly)....they both contain mescaline along with dozens of other psychoative alkaloids....san pedro cactus at its most potent dried only contains about 0.7% mescaline where as peyote buttons dried contain about 6%....and gumbii my l. williamsi seeds came but they were pretty thouroughly smashed...the guys resending them but theyre coming from indonesia so i wont have the new seeds until next month...im gonna go ahead and try germinating the most intact seeds i got from the first order though...

mmmmmmmaybe...


peyote is lophophora williamsi... san pedro isn't as strong... L. willliamsi is pretty though... been looking for one, but i can't find...

throw them in anyways... you'll be surprised if only half a seed will make it... the long chocolate habanero plants that i'm growing came from half a seed each... crazy, but it's worth a try... plants are resilient and designed to survive and thrive...


sucks about the SP cactus, but as long as you have one growing, you can frag it up and get a bunch growing...


man, this reminds me that i have to go to the hydroponic store and buy some 1g bags for my seedlings... i need about a 100 bags... or 100 4" square pots...

well....7 of the 10 seeds were reduced to powder lol....so ill plant the remaining 3 and cross my fingers....only problem is that the SP cactus are ready to be acclimated to the outside atmosphere so i wont be able to maintain high humidity....and the salvia cuttings i have in the tray are doing well but i need to acclimate those too....and go on ebay...i have 50 4" pots for $10

on a happier note...46 of the 50 sunflowers germinated....unfortunately only around 30 or so are actually still alive

so... are you giving up reef keeping for growing plants..?

i told you, growing plants from seeds, cloning, planting and just plants in general is a pretty kick arse hobby... the bad part is that since we're into reefing first, so that makes us want nothing but rare stuff... that's why i was on a mission for euphorbia lactea... i'm looking for a grafted euphorbia lactea cristata... but they are BALLA!...

i have euphorbia lactea cristata already... just that it's going to take forever to grow out... i got one crested and about, um, 3 euphorbia lactea candelabra, and 6 euphorbia lactea "dragon bones"... i have seen cristata grafts at H&H nursery for 30 and 60 bucks... but they were both small... i might bite the bullet and buy one soon...




IMO worth the scratch...
