Ricordia rock and porcelain crab feeler

[Walter White]

So I have been thinking about changing thing up a bit in my 60 cube and need to make some room. I wanted to get a feel for any interest in someone buying my ricordia rock with procelain crab. Its about the size of a small cantaloupe or large grapefruit. Id definitely miss my little crab but this has been his home for more than a year and I don't want to separate him from it. Im still on the fence if I really want to sell it.

I wouldn't take less than $200 for it and really not interested in trades but you never know maybe.

here are some older pics which show more clearly what im thinking about selling.

What kind of lights do you have over it? Do you target feed the crab?

That's an anemone crab. Little different than a true poreclain.

i have it under 250 de pheonix MH with two reef brite led actinic strips. I have never target fed the little guy I feed a mix of PE mysis, reef nutrition arctipods, reef chili, and elite reef cuisine. He's always done very well just grabbing bits that float by

you can call it what ever you want 99% of the rest of the world including national geographic still reffers to them as porcelain crabs. Most people and LFS still refer to this particular species as a porcelain.

Id probably do some more Zoas or something that likes the brighter light. I think im going to sit and think on it for another week or so. The wife didn't like the idea of losing the crab.

The wife didn't like the idea of losing the crab.

Funny how that happens. I get in trouble spending $$$ on the tank, then the wife gets more attached than I do!

[mrobinson86]

C'mon thats not fair to offer an awsome coral feeler like that and not sell if someone offers full price. Im assuming someone did because i thought about it. Just kidding, sorta, lol. Did smeone offer full?

 

[mrobinson86]

I will pay the $200 your asking.

 

[Walter White]

Sorry for the lack of response. I'm still kinda torn on this. I do have one person who was the first to respond via pm and first to offer full price so he has dibs if I decide to sell.

i know I know I'm a ****** for throwing it out there then getting cold feet. Honestly I'm in the middle of a job transition and will probabaly wait one more week before I decide to sell.

How big is the rock? I would pay your asking price.
