Up for sale is my 55 gallon and everything fishy that I own. Unfortunately, I find myself needing to take a break from the hobby now that we are expecting our first child and running the family business.
Asking $400, pickup in Mayfield, NY (http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?searchtype=address&country=US&addtohistory=&searchtab=home&formtype=address&popflag=0&latitude=&longitude=&name=&phone=&level=&cat=&address=&city=mayfield&state=ny&zipcode=)

2 AC70 filters, 2 spare foam inserts, 2 spare biomax inserts, spare carbon
1 whisper air pump
2 airstones
2 all glass stealth-type 100 watt heaters
Thermometer
White Sand and Crushed Coral mix substrate
Many rocks
Egg crate to stabilize rocks
Reversible background
Whats alive in the tank:
3 Melanochromis cyaneorhabdos (sex unknown)
2 Pseudotropheus saulosi (1 male, 1 female)
1 Tropheops “Red Cheek” (female)
1 Pseudotropheus elongatus “Usisya” (male)
2 Pundamilia nyererei Ruti Island (both females)
1 Labeotropheus trewavasae “Mpagna Red” (male)
1 Labidochromis caeruleus “Blue & White” (sex uknonwn)
1 bristlenose pleco (sex unknown)
5 Java Fern plants
3 Amazon Sword plants

Water Conditioners
Shrimp Hatchery
Extra Crushed Coral
Second reversible background
Artificial Plants
Other small tanks:
1 10-gallon
1 AC 50 with 3 spare foam inserts, 3 spare biomax inserts
1 AC 10 powerhead
1 Whisper Heater (50 W I think)
1 Theraflow sub heater (50 W I think)
Thermometer
Green gravel substrate
Reversible background
1 2-gallon travel aquarium
1 whisper 10 air pump with small airstone
1 Mini-Heater for 2 gallon
Red gravel substrate
1 corner bubbler filter
This is everything you would need to get started in the hobby or grow your existing habit.
I am willing to separate. The tank does have some scratches on the glass, from my many attempts to rearrange the rocks. I would break the pricing down to $100 for all the fish and plants and $300 for everything else.
If I separate fish and plants further, the pricing will be $5-$10 for each fish and $3-$5 or less for the plants (some are not is the most fantastic shape). Most fish are adults and trying to mate. Everything except the cyaneorhabdos and nyererei are F1. The female saulosi is holding for the first time but I dont know who the father is because the Usisya is constantly getting in their way, he really needs a female, unless he's going in an all male tank or a tank with an already very domintant male of any species. My plan was to get trios for most of them, but have been unsuccessful in this attempt, as some of these fish are very hard to come by.
I paid over $1000 for all these items and am asking $400 for everything.
