    ....well, I think it might be time for me to leave the hobby.  I really hate to do this but I've found myself too busy to truly enjoy this great hobby.  I've decided to start the process of selling my livestock first.
    Current setup:
    46 Gal Bowfront (Won't sell until everything is sold)
    Remora Skimmer (Won't sell until livestock/corals/rock is sold)
    $50 - HOB Fuge (a replica of a CPR)
    Current USA Orbit 36" fixture 192w (bulbs probably need to be changed) (Won't sell until livestock/corals/rock is sold)
    Livestock (Fish):
    Yellow Watchman (spoken for)
    $12 - Royal Gramma
    $10 - Red Tiger Brittle Star
    $10 - Coral Banded Shrimp
    FREE - Tons o' Asterina Stars
    Livestock (Corals):
    Neon Green Candy Cane (2.5 Heads)  (reserved for Wes)
    $20 - Gigantic Elephant Shrooms
    $25 - Green Tree  on a rock (2 stalks, approx. 3" tall)
    $15 - Kenya Tree (on rock approx. 4" x 4")
    $25 - Rock full of Pink Xenia w/ blue and red shrooms
    $15 - Green Star Polyps (longer tentacles, not your usual GSP)  
    $20 - Orange Monti Cap (encrusting on rock)
    $15 - Cabbage Leather
    $10 - Flat rock with bunch of red shrooms and brown (speckled) shrooms (rock does have a little hair algae on it)
    Live Rock - to be negotiated as things thin out
    Live sand - to be negotiated as things thin out
    Any inquiries, please just email me:
    alyu@mmaweekly.com
    I may trade for D-SLR camera equipment :)
    Sorry for the lack of pics.  I can try and get some shots for those who want them. 
    I'm located in Elk Run, Iowa.

    Fuge is $50.  It's full of chaeto/caulerpa with mini feather dusters and baby starfish.
    Sorry, don't have a refractometer.

    12" wide, 14" tall and 5" deep.

    It's runs off of a RIO power head, don't remember the model but my guess it's one of the lesser GPH models.

    No light with the fuge.  The one I had previously burned out. 
    Carrol to Elk Run is about a 2 hour drive.

    I am interested in the flat rock w/shrooms, the kenya tree, the green tree, the orange caps and the gigantic elephant shrooms. Wondering if you are coming to the quad cities any time soon or if it is possible to meet 1/2 way. Arrangements came be made either way. One more thing- I would also like to get the coral banded shrimp.
