Batfish and Sailfin Tang For Sale

[llucas685]

I have a beautiful batfish and salefin I need to have gone! These are both large fish. I have to break down this tank and they need a new home! I also have a pretty good sized blue lobster. I have someone wanting to buy the tank they are in and they want to pick it on on Wednesday or Thursday. I'm running out of time as I'm moving out of state!!

I would like to get $80 each for the fish and $25 for the lobster. At this point I will take best offer. Please let me know if you are interested.

How big? I'm interested in te tang but $80 is a bit steep for a sail fin tang.

 

[llucas685]

the Sailfin is 7" to 8". It's big. I didn't think $80 was steep considering the lfs's sell them at $150+ for that size...

 

[hurrafreak]

Sometimes price isn't as big a deal as the fact that some of us are just cheap lol! Free bump to the top!!

 

[Tajjo]

That would be so sweet, I couldn't put it in a 75 though. I'll be setting up the 180 soon. Hopefully before you move.

 

[llucas685]

Movers come on the 5th so I've got to have them gone by this weekend. If someone will come in and take everything I'll make them a really good deal!! I have over 100lbs of live rock, the two fish listed above as well as a gold stripe maroon clown, 6 line wrasse, raccoon butterfly, some clean up crew left (a handfull or two) a scooter blenny and a coral beauty.

If it across town I'd just take them with me but I'm moving to Alabama. Help a sista out!! Oh and if anyone is interested I also have a 220 gal glass tank with stand. $500
Thanks

are you in longmont?

 

[llucas685]

I am, for the next 5 mind numbing days. (mind numbing because I've been up till 2am every night packing)

 

[runningwild24]

the problem is I only have a 90 gallon tank...

 

[llucas685]

Well if you want any of the above let me know.

 

[runningwild24]

how big is your tank?

 

[llucas685]

The one all the fish are in is a 125 long. I have it sold and the folks are picking it up tomorrow. I'm gonna have to put eveyone in the 55 till I get them sold. Kinda freaking out about that but they should be ok for a few days if it comes to that.

 

[runningwild24]

Ive heard i shouldnt have 2 of the same kind of fish together (2 different clown species, tang, wrase...) is that true? like could I safely have a sailfin and a yellow tang, or a cleaner and a six line? thanks...

 

[llucas685]

Yes, tangs are fine together. Mine sailfin was with a yellow, and a blond naso tang for 3 years. Never a problem. Had my six line with a cleaner too, never saw any problems there. Not sure about the clowns... Mine has been in with another mar & gold stripe, but that's the only type of clowns I've ever had.

 

[Tajjo]

What are the dimensions of the tank?

 

[llucas685]

tank dimensions are (about) 69 1/2" long 24"wide 31 1/2" tall. It's really thick glass so it's heavy. Stand was custom built for tank so it's super sturdy

 

[runningwild24]

how much are you asking for the live rock per pound? I think the sailfin will be to big, but how big are your other fish? also have you had trouble with fish eating at corals? thanks!

 

[ShelbyJK500]

220g tank pics!! I'm assuming it doesn't have a canopy or lighting in place since you didn't mention that? Any nuisance pests/algae on the live rock??

The lighting on this tank was just strip lighting for fresh water. They go with the tank. Filtration does not. We have been using this tank for our only fresh water set up for the past couple of years. It is drilled in the back up higher on the tank as it was initially going to be a saltwater tank. It's empty now. Live rock I'll sell for $1.50 per pound. A little algea as most of my clean up crew is now gone but not too bad. I had some aptasia in one tank so I have that rock quarantined so I can get rid of it with out it spreading.

 

[runningwild24]

do you know if your fish are reef compatible? and how big is the batfish?
