    I want to say hello to all before I go to the classified section. I am sad to say, my hobby has to end for now, we are moving to South Carolina and don't want the expense of having to have to try to take everything with us. My name is Steve and here are some pictures of our tank.

    We have alot of pulsating zenia and waving hand, that just loves to grow. 1 HIPPO TANG, 5 CLOWN, 5 CHROMA'S, 1 SAILFIN BLENNY. Tank is 200 gal acrylic with 12" overflow. It has 3 years of ownership and alot of time and money. But all worth it.

    Hi Steve!
    Sorry to hear the bad news and good news on the move!
    I am probably going to be in the same boat as you find yourself as I am planning on moving to the South Carolina area this winter!!!!
    Best of luck to you!
    If it is any consolation, the corals and fish that you have are able to be acquired again fairly easily and without a huge amount of money being donated to the pet shops of the world!!!!
    I would not sell the tank and equipment, as I think that would be a regrettable notion in due time!
    I feel for you and hope all works out for ya!
    Welcome to 3reef by the way!

    Welcome to 3reef and sorry to hear about your future loss. I also agree with CR about just selling the livestock and keeping the equipment. You'll save some $$$ futher down the line when you decide to start SW again. Just a thought. Luna

    Thanks for all the replies! I have thought about that. I am willing to sell off everything but the tank. My only concern with it was storing it somewhere, our house in sc has no basement and is one story rancher. When I do start back up hopefully sooner then later I will probally go smaller due to the layout of the house.

    Welcome to the 3reef,
    CR is spot on the money, the value is in your hard ware not the live stock but thats not to say your tank dont look great!!!
    I hope that you find a happy medium in SC
