Breaking down a 72 gallon tank

I had to leave the state suddenly last June to take a job, leaving behind my poor wife to take care of the reef tank. As you can guess, I have a hair farm now, but there are still some nice animals I need to find a home for IN THE NEXT 2 WEEKS, as the house has finally sold. HALLELUJAH.

I'll post the individual animals that I have left, but please feel free to make an offer when you get there on any loose pieces I may not post (ie star polyps, mushrooms, zooanthids)

Note, this will have to be a "bag your own coral" event. I'm not going to be there, and my wife and son aren't knowledgeable.

One large Cats Eye coral, tea saucer sized at least. $ 30

Nice purple Acan, about 8 heads now. $35

Rain bow Acan at least a dozen heads. $45
It's a little sad right now, but if it likes it's new home, this is a $200 animal

One Large Favia. $35
The original animal is the 4 inch hump in the middle, but it's since spread over the rest of a 6 inch rock

Frogspawn with 5 heads. $35
This isn't on a rock, it just has a coral stalk the sits in a hole.

Trumpet Coral, 8-10 heads. $30

I'm waiting on more pictures from my son, which I will post later today.

Thanks for your help.
 
Sorry, I'm out of practice at this. I'm living in the small town of Waco, Texas now.

Right now, you and I are working with about the same info. That picture. I haven't seen the tank in person since Christmas. It was grown on a 2-2 1/2 inch ceramic disc that has been glued to a small rock. You could always pop it loose from the rock and take a brush to the sides of the disc.

What fish do you have for sale?

I don't know if I have any fish left in there. Was a small firefish and a little candy cane gobie. Even if their still there, there's no way to catch them until I pull out all that rock. On the day I take it down, I guess I'll pull out anything living (fish, snails, crabs), put them in a bucket and post an emergency blast -FREE-.
