Selling my setup (FISH FIRST) (East Brunswick)

NJRC Member
I appreciate all that I've learned & the people I've met here. Everyone has been extremely helpful & it's one of the best communities I've ever been apart of.

Location: East Brunswick, NJ
email: finkelkevin@gmail.com
cell: 732-570-1587 (you can text me or call)
If you have any questions just reach me with one of the ways listed above

Ever since I thought me & the wife were going to buy a house a month ago.. I wrote my tank off. The cyano & hair algae definitely hasn't made things any better. I've just grown distant in the past month or so & it feels more like a chore then enjoyment. I love my fish, but I feel they will be better off with someone else. When I get my own home, I'll venture back into the world of reefkeeping. I'm just parting it out. I'm not going to sell it as a whole. If someone was seriously interested in a whole, then you can make me an offer. I'm missing A LOT of other parts, but I'm waiting till my fish go.


I'm selling my fish first.

Melanarus wrasse: $20
Extreme snowflake & ORA black & white clown(They come as a pair.. I will not separate): $100 (they love nems)
Tankbred neon dottyback: she plays well with everyone. I even added quite a few additions after her and she doesnt mind $20
midas blenny: $15
longnose hawkfish: $20 (plays well with everyone.. even my scarlet & harlequin shrimp)
barnacle blenny: $15 (He's been missing for a few days.. so I don't know about this one)
ORA mandarin goby : eats mysis & pellets $25
harlequin shrimp PAIR: FREE I got these from howze. He gave them to me when he sold his setup. I'm passing them a long. ( They are on the bigger side)
scarlet shrimp: $20

the shrimp will have to go last because I'll have to tear apart my rock work.

I'll list some corals that I remember at the top of my head
2 headed gold torch(hasn't been looking that great lately)
cornbred 3g (SOLD)
firestarter chalice (SOLD)
50-100rastas (you'll have to take the whole big rock)

Obviously, can't sell my hardware until the fish & corals go. This is off the top of my head.

(2x) Radions: $350each
Reef Octopus NWB200 8” Pinwheel In Sump Protein Skimmer (few months old): $200
mp40wES (few months old): $400

Kevin, im sorry to hear this. I do hope you change your mind. However you have a pm in case you do not
 
Sorry you are taking a break. Once you have a place of your own your reefing itch will return. In the mean time you really should keep equipment for the following reasons; 1) it never goes bad. 2) you will buy it all over again at top dollar, sooner than you think.

Is it a spotted mandarin?

whoops, yes it is! She is probably my favorite fish(i don't really know if it's a she, but she hovers like one, lol) I bought her from Xavier


My harlequins are actually in a good spot to grab now. They are out eating a starfish..

I won't be buying a house for a few years, so I'm going to sell everything I can. I appreciate the sadness! I'm sorry to see myself goo, I've spent lots of time & money. I've learned a ton.. it's just right now it's time to let go. I also might be getting a new job that requires me to travel 90% of the time

sorry to hear that your are breaking down your tank Kevin, hopefully once you get your house you get back in the hobby!

I sent you a txt.
 
Man.. I got out for one day and in an hour all the good stuff (to me) is gone!

Sorry to see you go. I hope you keep posting here from time to time. I always enjoyed your posts. I'm interested in the Scarlet Shrimp.. Is it a skunk cleaner, or the one that is all red with white spots? If the mandarin and barnacle blenny happen to fall through let me know.
