Up for sale is a 40g breeder that housed some gold fish for about a year. It was made by fujimoto aquariums. There are a few small scratches on it that are barely noticeable when filled with water. Here's the only catch, chelated copper meds were used in it, so it may be unsuitable for invertebrates. I have heard of various methods of cleaning it but have never heard of long term positive results. Probably only suitable for a qt or fowlr.

$50 obo or trade for live rock or?
Thanks,
Sean

Here's a pic with it torn down, I haven't cleaned it out yet, the next is what it looked like set up, keep in mind the stand and canopy are NOT included, just the tank.

What's funny tho. It's only for 10g to 55g. I wanted to get a couple 5g but they wanted 14.99 for it lol. Why no make them 5$ too

Nice. That's a little discouraging, but I am willing to trade, and petco is not. Also, you might be able to talk me down or offer a frag or two :)

Sorry wasn't tryin to be that way. Was just letting you know about the sale and why it might sit here a while. And good to know you are up for trades. What kind of frags? ;)

No worries bro, my feelings aren't hurt :) I'm just looking to get it out of my garage. I'm not really sure what frags I want. I'm kind of new to reefing really. I have a 36 inch pc fixture with 2 bulbs, one actinic and one daylight, that put out 96 watts each. I'm definitely interested in xenia. I would like to get some coral that I could fool a clownfish into hosting with. I really want an anemone, but I'd rather not kill it and I don't think I could properly care for it yet.

Oh ok. I would have traded some sps for it but your lighting won't be sufficient for them. Good luck.

I'll trade you some live rock for the tank & to sweeten the deal I throw in a small hammer frag if you deliver. I'm sure I could find you a little xenia and a mushroom or two as well

Have plenty of Xenia, but no need for the tank. five O if you want to swing by my spot this Sunday around NOON ill give you 2 to 3 stalks to assist in the deal. I almost hate the **** things. But if they can help you might not be as bad. I usually toss them but they are yours for the taking. Heres a picture of the colony after i threw away 1/2 of it. It doubles in size every two weeks.

Trust me, Xenia grows like crazy, and I already have a ton of it. To some it could be considered a plague, but I do like the look of it though, and thanks for the offer. I'm sure someone here will take you up on the offer. Who wouldn't like a million little hands waving (hello my friend) to them each time the walk by their fish tank. I have found that if you get keep it in one area and create a burn line around ( like fighting a forest fire) then it makes it a little easier to control. I just remove the stalks that try to make it out of their designated area. But to keep it on topic, I would trade some on some nice live rock towards the tank as well as the previous listed items.
