I have a great little tank. 65gal Red Sea Max250 and cabinet/stand (8 years) and Arctic 1/10hp chiller (6 years). We listed on my wife's FB account in one of the forums. We aren't asking much ($850 - the red anemones alone would cost more than that retail; very reasonable and significant enough to weed out the rank beginners, or so I hoped). We are getting good response, including two who want to buy now. But the problem is that after a few questions you realize that most of these folks are either beginners or aspiring beginners who have no idea what they are doing and are very unlikely to have the desire, or the ability, to give these lovely creatures the care they deserve. I love my fish and friends and can't bear the idea of sending them to their death.

As a new member here I'm not allowed to list in marketplace, which I understand completely, but my case is a bit different as I'm looking to find a good home where these little guys can die of old age. I live in the west San Fernando Valley (Los Angeles). Please inquire if interested.
