getting out of hobby sale - PU only IL 60060

Post by Proteus »

Getting completely out this time. Will be back!

Most of Equipment/Tanks are unable to be sold until all fish in that tank is GONE. Later part of this ad has tanks/equipment that can just go now.
55g acrylic NOVA black background non-drilled with two acrylic tops. Light strip comes with nothing fancy and wood stand. NoT bad of a shape but it needs buffing work. Especially in bottom part of the tank unless you fill it high with sand/gravel and theres a bad scratch on outside part of the tank on the left side. Asking $150 for the tank/light/stand only.
It’s current temporary inhabitants are for sale too.
  • 15 Clown Loaches range from 3.5’’-7’’ Take all for $250 and all pvc pieces I use for their hiding spots Willing to spilt up smaller ones and bigger ones into groups however it will not be cheap for the big one. Asking $75 for the 7’’ alone. (will come with 2 big PVC pipe piece)
  • Emperor Tetras take all for $20 I have no gurantee how mnay is left now that they’re with the Jaguar catfish and I don’t know if they will snack on em.
  • Free black angelfish.
  • 5 Jaguar Catfish – Asking $250 for all 5, not splitting the group up. They are social cats and will need to be with each other to thrive.
Take all of loaches, catfish, tetras if they’re not ate by then, angelfish: tank setup, heater, Eheim 2213 , driftwoods in that tank, some are mopanis for $ 600


2nd TANK SETUP:

55g beatup its all scratched up acrylic, it’s my favorite breeding tank. REASON: It comfortably fits in 2 AC110 filters. This is my breeding tank. I run both at the same time and the plecos loves it. Comes with wood stand, 2x AC110, light strip- asking $200 for this tank as it’s a lucky one for me. Yes folks that’s my panaque breeding tank- so that’s the one you will need. Can't be sold until all plecs/fish gone or you take the package deal for 1k.

Current Inhabitants:
  • 17 L134- asking $700 for all or first 3 are $60 each, 4th and rest are $50 extra each. Proven breeding colony. The buyer who gets all 700 will get all caves I have set up for those fellas.
  • 7 L183 subadults – great starting size now to get them at. $300 for all 7, do prefer to sell them altogether to ensure have both genders for breeding project for the buyer.
  • 1 FEMALE L204- $40 is what I paid for her, so asking $40 for her.
  • 6 1’’ L271 fry- take all for $50 – ON HOLD UNTIL after JAN 1st (they don't apply to my fish stuff package deal)

Take the beat up 55g tank, its not beautiful but it’s a great breeding tank! All L134s, L183s, 2x AC110s, (if I still have 1x AC70 if not sold by then) light strip , heaters, wood stand and caves/driftwood I have in there for total of $1000



NANO setups:
  • Glass bowl/vase type full of opae ulas everything in that bowl and bowl itself : $20 would suggest removing rock before transport to avoid crushing those fellas. Brackish is good for those guys.
  • Contempory flat rectangle vase full of lava rock and some opae ulas $15
Take both setups and take a free hydrometer. And if I still have some distilled water left, will give to buyer who takes both setups.


10g tank, no top, and iron stand $25- CANNOT BE SOLD UNTIL ALL FISH/PLANT/LIVESTOCK is gone (no lights are included)

Its Current inhabitants:
  • CPD juvies- $6 each not sure how many left!
  • Clown killies- $3 each I only saw one. So I'm guessing only 1 left. If only 1 left, then its free with other fish purchase.
  • 1 Breeding pair of CPD $15
  • Nerite snails- $3 each no clue how many left.
  • Different kinds of plants/ crypts, mosses, pelias, etc. Prices are $2-10 per plant/portion. They're infested by snails sorry!
TANKS/EQUIPMENT THAT CAN GO BYE –BYE TODAY:
  • Taking a huge loss on this tank: stupidest purchase ever. I mean…. Stupidest purchase ever. Made in my life. 80g not 100g (its 60x18x17) and it NEEDS TONS AND TONS OF restoring work.Stand/tank asking $300 that’s less what I paid for those plus you’ll get my polishing kit/buffing papers I started on this tank and whats point of me continuing trying to restore this when I don’t want to continue this hobby anymore? NEED 3 people to move the stand. Its really heavy.
  • Flatback hex wood stand for 26g tank AND AC 70- $40 acrylic tank with ugly blue background is a beat up half started project comes with it for free.
  • Free 5g glass tank with any purchase it’s a POS tank would be fine using as a sump or something like that. =/
  • 55g flatback hex tank with canopy and stand. ALL ACRYLIC. $150 it does need buffing work. Can come with AC70 filter.
Filters not being used.
  • Fluval 302 canister filter- unknown if it works but will sell it for $20 as parts as don’t know what’s missing.
  • Eheim 2028 canister filter $100, need to find intake tube and spraybar.
  • Tom Filter -20
  • AC110 filter without basket – $20
  • 2 ac70 filters- $20 each.
Driftwood prices will be up once all fish are sold and tank setup packages are not taken advantage of.
I have heaters I’m not currently using but they’re $3 each as I don’t know how trustworthy those heaters are right now.
Have green water $20 for a gallon and $6 for a .5 liter, can get for free if want with CPD/Killifish purchase.

If someone wants all of my fish stuff including tanks/equipment/fish etc everything I own or was for a fish project everything is theirs for $2,250. 2x110g stock tubs, 1x40g stock tub, 20g pond tub all filters! EVERYTHING! bamboo untouched/cured for 5 years pieces etc! This only is good until the first piece of fish/equipment are sold then the sale ends. That includes all tanks, fish etc. nano setups etc! Odds/ends all of that adds up fast. $2250 is my lowest firm price.

Strictly pick up only basis. I will be taking a table at the GCCA swap in FEB if I end up still having majority of this stuff. First come, first served. Pick up in Mundelein- about 15-20 minutes away from Gurnee mills. North suburbs of Chicago area.

Thanks for looking!

Photos of L134/L183 the L271 fry the bigger ones are still available up and running, others will come this week when I got the time!

Do you still have any equipment left? I am assuming this post is almost a year old you have no fish left?
