I'll try to list what I can, but there's bound to be more in there I forgot... Everything I have started as small frags. Nothing new has been added to the tank in over two years, it's just been growing steady. Most things are attached to the rockwork, so it'll have to come with. The rocks are all large/interesting pieces that I picked DIRECTLY out of the crates at bulk-reef supply when I used to live in MN. They form two excellent caves/mounds that fit perfectly in a 40-75ish reef.

Since everything works so well together, I'd be VERY happy to sell it all as a package (hell, I'll be selling all the gear soon, too, if you're REALLY interested, I'll give you a hell of a deal on a COMPLETE 40-br package--reef keeper lite, ATO, RO, etc.)

$600 for ALL LIVESTOCK!!

Better pics coming ASAP, but these show much of the livestock:

CORALS:
Large-HUGE
pink/green hammerhead/frogspawn
??xx frogspawn euphilia (looks unlike any others I've seen, like a galaxy/frogspawn hybrid)
colt coral
Neon green nepthia finger leather
Orange mushrooms (50+ in the tank, I'd estimate)
Pink, 'evergrowing' gorgonian
teal palythoa (covers a rock)
Duncan (the full-neon green ones, not the brownish ones)
Neon-orange ricordea (10+ decent sized ones)

medium:
red micro
teal millipora
green/yellow acro
green brain
Pink Paly's
red zoanthid (used to be huge, probably many more hiding out in the rockwork)
green zoanthid
blue zoanthid
BRIGHT yellow toadstool (seriously gorgeous how bright this one is)
Green monti-cap

Smaller
rainbow monti
atomic paly
misc acros/SPS
some blue clove polyps hiding about
one neon-green candy cane that's lived through a lot of LPS warfare...






FISH:

Sailfin-tang (the standard kind, not desiar-whatever)
Had this guy for 4 years, since he was DIME-sized. Very well behaved tang

Flame-angel. Certified reef-safe for 3 years. I went through several angels before I found one I considered to be safe for my tank...

Mated-pair of true-perculas
Been hosting in the colt coral for three years. The female is a *****, though. Knuckle-biter if you have your hands close to her colony with the lights on. I do my cleaning at night and there's no problem then.

Purple fire-fish. This guy will be hard to remove, so it'll have to go last. Fat, but hides quite a bit. Been that way since I got her(him?) 4 years ago.

Kupang damsel. AKA yellow-bottom damsel. One of my fav. fish of all time. very nice, for a damsel. Has been super healthy for 4 years.

Crocea Clam. Got this guy at an inch or so long, now maybe 3". Cool dotted pattern. About 2 years ago it 'jumped' off the rock-work and has been thriving happily on the sand since.



I just realized my pics are terrible, better ones coming ASAP...

For now, I'm going to ignore requests to part it out. Add up what you think you'd spend on colonies this big and you'll see that you'd be better off parting it out yourself if you have time... the unknown euphillia is really quite special, hopefully I can snap a good pic here in a few minutes...

edit: These were taken with an ipad since apparently I don't have any other cameras. If these sell, maybe I'll buy a DSLR. Also note that I didn't clean the glass so everything looks duller than it should. In short: sorry for the crappy pictures.

more pics:

In the second pic down you can see best what makes the euphillia so odd. The florescent green appears as an irregular striping throughout single tips, and the morphology appears to be mixed between hammer-head and frogspawn. Maybe a hybrid or some sort of odd grafting? It's rather unique in my experience. The colony appears to be about 3/4 of a volly-ball sized, and comes off a single base. Growth is branched, and there are tons of heads.

I'll let you know about parting it out. I'll probably start parting out if there's no offers by the weekend. I'm waiting to hear back from a couple people who were interested in the whole thing.

looking more and more like I'll be parting out starting this weekend...

If you want to make offers on the big corals, please have a way to transport them, since many are too big for even gallon bags...

well, it looks like everyone wants bits and pieces, so I figured I might as well try to part it all out. not 100% sure on prices, but I tried to do well with them...

Coral has to sell first. A fair bit is fully encrusted and we'll have to be flexible with prices when I actually pull things out of the tank.

Fish are guaranteed to be eating extremely well and 100% crypt-free, and quite obviously reef safe (hence they are not the cheapest, but buying these over fresh imports takes away most of the risk...)


OKAY, Prices! I try to be fair and I try not to let people leave upset.
SPS frags free with purchase over $50 while supplies last, since they're all too enctrusted to sell otherwise (Except one small colony).

Also free with purchase are a few kick-*** mini-snails. These guys multiply quickly and are good film-algae eaters.
I haven't bought any new clean-up crew in probably 3 years...

Coral prices:

Duncan: $100 for ? dozens of large heads, maybe 50+ if you count med/smaller heads
pink&green hammer: $100 for maybe 50? heads, colony is well over a foot
weird euphillia: $100 for ? heads (volly-ball sized)

Giant green finger leather: $80
Giant pink Colt/kenya tree: $70/obo

"Flashlight" acro, small colony: $20

neon candy-cane polyp: $5 or free with bigger purchase

yellow toadstool:$20 (may be more if it's attached to a big rock full of zoos or the like)

ever-growing gorgonain on a big round rock $40

Orange Ricordea: ~$10/head (discounts for buying more)

Red micro:$30 (big-golf-ball sized?)

Favia: $20 Encrusted to a monti-cap skeleton, might not be able to easily pull it off the rock

Orange mushrooms: pricing varies on rock/etc

Zoas by the rock, including super-green, red, nuclear green, pink palys, BOATLOADS of teal palys, etc,
pricing varies by the piece. Will give deals for multiple/larger purchases


Live rock COVERED in shrooms, SPS, zoas, etc:
Pricing varies, you'll have to come over and have it pulled out of the tank. Some awesome and large rocks
hand picked and covered in life.


super-colored crocea clam, 3inches:
$50

(REEF SAFE 3+year tested) flame angel:
$40

Sail-fin tang (keeps my reef 100% Algae free): $20

Mated Pair of percula clownfish (been together for 3+ years):
$50/obo

Purple fire-fish: $15

kupang damsel: $3

Fighting conch: $3


Snails, rock, etc, will come with purchases while I still have some to give away. Would much prefer to do as much as possible tomorrow before 7pm. PM me for address and phone number if you want to come.

BRING CASH AND A WAY TO TRANSPORT IF YOU WANT A BIG COLONY!

Just a few fish left:

sailfin tang
purple firefish
kupang damsel

Take 'em all for $20 and get some free teal palythoa and orange mushroom corals! Guaranteed to be in great health with no crypt and eating very well.
