Time to sell the livestock from the Columbine reef; if you have not hear the news, it is bowing/splitting and has pulled away its center braces. More on that here:
http://www.marinecolorado.org/forums/showthread.php?18189-A-sad-day-and-end-of-an-era-for-me

I will list the items below and in another thread with pics and a brief note if necessary. Some of the corals have "grown wild" on the very large pieces of LR in the reef, so they will need to be removed. Some cannot be removed so they will need to be purchased with the rock. The fish will need to be caught so they may come out toward the end. The equipment I will list after the livestock is gone and I can unhook/clean it up.

My schedule is very hectic this week, so I would like to arrange pickups for next weekend: Saturday from 10-4 and Sunday 12-4 if at all possible. If you absolutely cannot make either of those times, please PM me to arrange a separate pick up. I am breaking down the entire reef, so you will need to bring your own containers, cups, bags, coolers. I have a few, but certainly not enough for the whole enchilada. If you bring a small cup/film canister, I will give each person some reef dip (Bayer bug-killer) with each purchase as I no longer need it.

Please post purchase requests on this thread. If you have questions you can PM me or text me at 720.560.9890, but I would prefer purchases only via the thread. I can accept cash, checks made out to Columbine High School, or Paypal.

P.S. I am not claiming to be an expert on names, so if I get one or two wrong I apologize and am not intending to mislead anyone.

@ Plumcrazy: the tube anemone's tube is about the size of a gold dollar in diameter and about 8-10" long buried under the sand. His head is like a large featherduster with longer tentacles, maybe 3-4". Cool animal.

I've seen a few and debated on owning one. This would be a good chance to but my choice is risking putting it with fish that don't have an anemone in the tank and possibly getting eaten and it would have been my nano, but its a tad too large.
