Well, here it is. As some of you know, I went to Cozumel last week. My brother stayed here to watch everybody and everything was fine on my phone calls home. Well, I was doing my usual weekly "once over" of the tank (changing water, cleaning filter pads, etc.) when I saw it. A slow steady drip from the seal on the bottom side of the 125. Dripping right on a support for the stand. I have done my best to divert the water from the support and dry it without any rot. However, I do not trust it. The leak seems irrepairable IMO so everything has to come out. I have nowhere else to put any livestock, due to the fact that I did end up selling the 980, so anyone that wants anything from my list, lets talk.
1- 26" female bamboo
2- 11" long male Cali ray
3- 8" long female Cali ray
4- 15" long Volitain lion
5- 24" Zebra moray
I would appreciate pick-up for now and I am willing to travel. As time goes on, Im sure I will consider shipping. Now, Im going to go calm down, pop open my bottle of Escorpion Tequila, and wait for you guys to save me.

I could go for a nice zebra moray, but live in South CT... anyway that would work out? I'd love for yer "resident model" too, but i think Nick would just get jealous. I wouldn't ba able to get any of yer other ones. How big do the zebras get? I would be willing to pay shipping... Is it that purple one u posted a while ago?

I havent posted pics of the zebra in a while but hes been on here. Id meet you somewhere if you wanted. Nick wouldnt be jealous, they naturally hang out in groups.

I very sorry to hear that. I'm getting ready to go to Cancun in January and you've just realized my worst fears. Good luck with everything. I wish I lived closer I might have been able to board some of your animals.

If we can work out the logistics this time around, I am still interested in the bamboo, and definitely interested in the lion. I love those guys. If you end up doing something with Liontamer in CT, maybe I could do the pick up there?

Liontamer- You have first dibs on the lion and zebra if you want them. The zebras dont really get that big and they are kind of inactive. His temperment is VERY passive so there is no way he would ever dream of eating anything. In my last tank he was in, he didnt even eat my cleaner shrimp! Ill see if I can get some good pics of him tonight at feeding. Ill send them to your address.
MichealStern- I was hoping you would see this. I lost your e-mail address and I was going to see if we could meet somewhere this time. I have everything kind of stable right now, so lets set it up for next week if possible to get Turkey Day out of the way. If Liontamer passes on the lion, hes yours with the bamboo.

Theres two offers somewhat locally for the lion. Like I said, Ill consider shipping later on if it falls through. Make sure that clown and fuzzy lion are bigger than 4-5 inches, cause hes got a huge appetite and an even bigger mouth.

Scott,
Do you think the lion would eat a flame hawk or a large royal gramma? If not, I'm good for it.
Liontamer, where in CT are you? Maybe if you meet up with Scott for yours, I could meet you in CT to pick up mine.
Michael
