Well I really hate this but I just found out my wife has been cheating on me and I have to move and a don't have a place to go so I have to sell everything.

I need it all gone, corals, fish, equipment
I really hate this is like being kicked in the gut.

I've got so much to list I don't know where to start. I will not split it up unless I have it all presold you know

36 gallon bow front
Stand
Canopy
10 gallon sump
Return
Overflow
Hob filter
Heater
Rlk controller with 2pc4s, sl1, float switches, aqua lifter pump
Evo 100 led light
2 circulation pumps
I've got tons of coral sps,lps,softies ect
2 clownfish,firefish, royal gramma, six line wrasse
32 gallon brute for mixing with pump and heater
Api and redsea test kits
Cleaning and fragging supplies
Filter media
Tons of other items
Buckets
Coralife skimmer that needs a new pump
A full bucket of salt and lots of dosing chemicals
And I'm sure I'm missing stuff
There was over 50 types of coral last I remember.

I'm guessing $700. I've got way over that just in the coral so I guess that's a starting point

Brand new 20 gallon long I was going to use for a sump

Not trying to pry, but why do you have to go anywhere? Shouldnt it be the other way around?

Since your wife is the one who violated the contract she is the one who should leave. And, she has somewhere to go? What's most important right now is to remain as calm as possible and not to get violent or aggressive in any manner. I'm praying for you right now. There is nothing worse than what you are going through right now.

If you don't have to dont sell! I went through the same thing ( except it was husband) I sold off EVERYTHING including giving away all of our tanks. About $5k in fish stuff. 8 years later I've started getting back into it and its killing me I HAD all of the stuff I'm having to re purchase.
It is a slap in the face and a knife in the heart but don't jump the gun! Ask yourself "do I enjoy my tank?" If yes than keep it! It will give you something to keep you busy.

Definitely take a breather, sometimes the situation demands moving out, but if not you can compromise your legal standing down the road.

It's a small manageable tank that could go in an apartment, bedroom etc!

Well considering that I was renting from her sisters husband and her dad lives with us. I'm the one who has to go. I don't know if I can have an apartment quick enough to move the tank. I need to move closer to my work in new johnsonville seeing as the only vehicle I have is my Harley. The car is in her name

A few years ago my fiancée was cheating on me and I had a 55 set up at her house. 20 five gallon buckets and my son to help we had it moved in 30 minutes. Just think on the bright side - at least it's not winter. Civility will go a long way right now.

If anything you have the right to be there as much as she does. Don't know all the details but I've talk to layers about this samething. Either parties can't kick the other one out If you move out you kind of give up your rights to the house. I feel for you man it's hard. Be strong and think thing throw. Good luck preys going out to you.

Kevin, I'm sure if you focused on getting a place right now when it came time to move we would all pitch together and put a convoy together to help you move everything. I'm in when the time comes. You love that tank and everything in it. Don't make a knee jerk decision. If you have to sell a few pieces of livestock to get some money together to aid in getting a place you can always get a frag back once your settled. I hate that your going through this right now and I'll help anyway I can! Just stay calm!
