Almost out of hobby sale!

[Cartel]

Well lets face it im not on here often lately being a chatter box like I use to. That alone shows how deep I am into my hobby right now and self admittedly not very much. Loosing my favorite fish not once, not twice, not three but four different male Fossies croaked on me. That was the last straw. I want to move all my male Haps since I dont feel like I am caring for them as well as I should and just plain dont enjoy them as much as I once did.

Dont worry im not going anywhere im keeping my 125gl and doing something different with it. Most likely moving the fish in my 40 and plants and giving that a shot. It will be easier for me just having 1 tank to take
care of.

I dont have pictures since I wouldnt be able to take pictures if my life depended on it. If you must then I suppose I could attempt some iphonedizzle shots to give you an idea.

All are Males minus a couple small Champs and Comps.

1. Protomelas Taeniolatus (hes mean looks good nice blue face and red fins but hes a punk) $20

2. Protomelas Spilonotus (hes a big baby got a nice yellow sulfur strip)

3. Chilotilapia Rhodesii (hes shy has a nice green tint)

4. Buccochromis Nototaenia (my least colorful yet one of my favorite fish because I saved him from some illness when he was small. Hes picky with food and did not like the latest food I had bought so hes got a little sunken stomach going on. I just switched him back to what he likes so hopefully he will get fat again before someone picks him up) $20

5. Buccochromis Spectabillis (my favorite fish and im not sure why. I might keep him for awhile just to show at the convention if I make up my mind if im going or not) $20

6. Champsochromis Caeruleus ( about 3.5 in long still small so not too colorful) $10 each I have at least 2 males but may have more since I have 3 others in a different tank. You take all 5 for $30?

6. Aristochromis Crystyi (hes recently started to color up cool fish IMO) - $20

7. Dimidichromis Compressiceps ( 2.5 inches small yet colorful for his size) - $10 I have 2 males and another im not sure about take all 3 for $25?

8. Aulonocara Stuartgranti "Red Shoulder" ( only peacock I have kept after getting rid of the rest awhile back. Cool peaceful fish) - $20

Tanks:

40L with lids. Black painted sides and back - $30

29 with hood/light -$20

10 tank only -$5

Supplies

Air Pod air pump #6. I personally don't feel its as strong as described but otherwise works just fine NIB! -$10

Mag drive 5 pond version it was on tank for 2 days - $50

I hate pricing things the same way I hate when someones says shoot me an offer. So if you dont think the price is fair just let me know. I know I payed more for all the items and fish so im not trying to gain anything out of it.

Thanks!

I just did a water change so the water doesnt look so great right now but I decided we eat with our eyes so something is better then nothing. You will have to play I spy and of course all of them turned their backs on me. I will post pictures of the other fish in a diff tank and the pumps tomorrow night. Ill try taking pics of these fish again too so the water is clearer.

 

[F8LBITE]

Id like to add that those are excellent rocks you have.

 

[DiscusnAfricans]

Sorry to hear you're scaling back Will, but glad you're not out of it all together.

I'd be interested in the following:

Spilonotus Male
Red-Shoulder Peacock Male

I think Tony may be interested in the champs and comps, maybe a bucco too, but I'll let him chime in on that.

Let me know if you want me to catch up with you before ACA, and we'll work something out.

 

[Cartel]

Well that's only because they came from a really great source. Great price too! I'm def holding onto those regardless of what goes in this tank next.

 

[Tony]

Hey Wil. Sorry to hear you're getting away from Africans.

If you haven't completely made up your mind yet, I have a male Fossie that is just starting to show color. About 8". You can have him if you'd like.

Otherwise, I'll take that spectabilis off your hands when you're ready to give him up.

Like Mike said, was pondering grabbing your Champsos, but I already have a group growing out.

 

[Cartel]

I'll update this thread later tonight. We'll see how it goes but for now I would just assume most fish are pending. I'll be more specific later.

Just FYi I forgot the price on 2 fish above but I'll say $20 each for now.

 

[Cartel]

Well folks this was def a fire sale! Someone stopped by this afternoon and made me an offer I could not refuse. The entire lot of fish was taken off my hands. Sorry to those that had inquired but this was the first person that reached out.

I now only own 2 blue rams and 11 orange laser cories which will now love life in a 125gl.

[Tony]

Good to hear that Wil.

Glad you were able to move everything so quickly.

 

[Cartel]

Now it is out of hobby.

Well things happen for a reason just found out I'm moving in a month. So I guess this stuff was going one way or another.

If it entices anyone on the 40L I will include a matten filter with lift tubes that works like a charm.

I don't have to but it would be easier to move with out my 125g. If 5 Benjamins ($500 for you wise guys!) showed up in my hand I would be willing to let it go. I can even deliver if within reasonable distance for a small fee of whatever gas costs. My truck only gets 13mpg and every bit helps when moving.....I understand it's more then most would like to pay for a 125. It's a dual corner overflow all glass with a painted black back. The stand is black pine which I bought new. It comes with 2 koralia 1's, an Emperor 400, Mag 9.5 with a DIY W/D, Won titanium heater, lids, and 2 shop lights that dont look so ghetto since they are black.

[Tony]

Where you moving to? Local?

 

[Spine]

What about the cory's are they for sale?

 

[Cartel]

If I can get rid of the 125 the cories and a pair of blue rams would be up next on the chopping block. The more I think about it the more I would like to sell the tank but I cant bring myself to give it away either so $400 someone can have it otherwise off it goes to the next place ill call home.

Dont be scared to offer for the other couple items I still have.

Ill keep yall posted as to where im off to next! At this point its kinda in the air. Cross country or localish?!?!?! The next few weeks should be interesting.
