Ahhhh ok, wow Scott you would never be happy with two smaller tanks.

Scott what sizes you looking for? I want to get rid of my smaller tanks once the transition is complete. Neither are RR though.

Well Scott you always have the 20 acrylic that I Indian traded with you before. I even have a canopy you can borrow.

Shag,

The long sad story......I was on 1 of my 3 week excursions when my wife informed me that Dori was eating the colt. I was afraid of it sliming up and killing some of my SPSs so I asked her to remove it. It is still alive and I could possibly get some back. Maybe I can make it up to you with something else. I only have 1 softie left. It is not very big at this moment. Let it get a little more size to it and I will cut a small frag for me to keep and let you take the large piece (if you want).

Sorry about the Colt,
Jeremy

Yeah, I have that 20, another 20 long, a standard 20, a 55 gallon and a 29 that I am using for my sump but none of them are really what I am looking for right now and I don't have a HOB skimmer. I want one tank that is about 36x18x21 that needs only one halide and I can build the stand so I can have a refugium, calcium reactor, 3600 gph closed loop pump, and my 35 inch tall skimmer. I can make it SPS and then use my 29 for a LPS tank with a 20 refugium until we move and I set up the 150. with herniated disks I haven't been able to produce at work like I used to so money has been tight. I sold a bunch of frags for a start but then I got some doctor bill in and half of that was gone.

Sorry to hear about your back Scott, has it gotten worse ?? You seriously need to be thinking about a different profession. Well at least if you get into computers the lifting would be about gone. Seriously the heaviest thing I lift each day is a 10lb laptop. With your math skills you could do software/computer repair without any problems and probably serious programming.

Having a hurt back will not put you out of work though, I have seen two mechanics with missing arms and they could hold there own against other mechanics. Plus you are senior mechanic, let the grunt newbie do all your lifting

Hey Joe, what size do you have?

Phisher · Post by **Phisher** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 2:34 pm

Regular 75g and a 16g tall 20*20*10.

Joe, I'm certainly not "bypassing" scott, but I'm interested in the 75G if the price is reasonable... I have a 55G refuge that could use an upgrade.

There is a 75 gallon sitting in the floor of Best Rate Insurance over off of pleasant valley. She has been looking for someone to take this tank, not sure if she is even charging. It looks to need some sealing though but the tank was in fair shape. They are a client and friend so treat them nice if anyone goes and picks it up. Ask for Bob or Betty Church.

ShagMan · Post by **ShagMan** » Fri Apr 15, 2005 5:47 pm

I'm calling 'em Monday! Are they open on Saturdays?

EDIT: Scott has first dibbs now that I think about it

A tank that needs resealing/work is PERFECT for what I need tho.

Scott · Post by **Scott** » Fri Apr 15, 2005 7:07 pm

I am really looking for a 3 foot tank so that I can get by with one halide until we move and I can do something in wall.

Josh, that 75 gallon at the insurance company is in pretty rough shape but it's looks old and appears to have extremely thik glass so it may be worth the effort. It may need new trim if I remember right.

let me know if no one wants it and I will take it. They are right down the street from me.

My wife used to work for them. Why is Bob getting rid of it? I know he used to really love his fish. The ones there and at their house. Both are really good people.
