SRC Member alanseah Posted August 16, 2006 Author SRC Member Share Posted August 16, 2006 Wah Piangz?!!!!. ....what happen brother??? after so much effort you have put in?!....jokin huh? lolz.. nothing happen... also no real hurry to sell off... that's why i put up and ask for a complete sale. If can sale good.. if not I just continue reefing.... well 15K is not an expensive amount if you go and calcuate the price of each equipments... e.g. Bk will cost around 4k, RD 12m3 will cost 1K, CR will cost 1K, tank stand and sump will cost 3K, lighting will cost 1K, tunze pump will cost 2.5K, live stock 3K. 4k + 1k + 1K + 3K + 1K + 2.5k + 3K = 15.5K already...by just naming a few of the equipments only... so you say cheap or not..

acidjazz Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 bro, i was just thinking e new owner needs time to re-set up the tank and establish the system, therefore the sps might fade off and fishes might not last tt long in a holding area. from previous threads, most reefers seem to want a bit of this and a bit of that, no one actually want everything in the system although i must say your system is truly high-tech. Up for ur sales though.

SRC Member southpaw23 Posted August 17, 2006 SRC Member Share Posted August 17, 2006 what about those that change tank..??? do u mean their sps all fade off and fish die also???? That's not the same...if you're changing tanks...you can plan to have the existing tank running and cycle the new tank before transfering existing livestock. In non-sps cases, ppl can also setup tubs to contain livestock, with skimmers and lights while waiting for the new tank to be setup. It is completely a different ball game when selling an entire setup. There is a lot the potential buyer would have to do before he can buy your setup if he intends to keep all ur sps and livestock alive for the transition. Setting up temporary holding areas in his house, a lighting and skimmer setup etc. If he doesn't own one right now, then he will have to decom your tank and quickly setup the temp holding area and move the livestock before moving the tank etc....the list goes on..... Bottom line...it's a logistical nightmare and franky near impossible task. That's why it is generally not feasible for ppl to buy over an entire setup with livestock and corals. It's not like ur tank can magically teleport from your house to the new owners house...even if you do get it done in half a day, you're bound to lose some sps in the process. Plus the tank will go through another mini cycle from the die off from the liverock etc...and potential cause more deaths in the coming days/weeks. Frankly, i'd rethink your strategy...either keep the entire setup or break up the sale and get rid of livestock first...with corals to go first, then fishes, liverock etc..... But hey....it's a free world and ur free to do what you please....that's my two cents... Upz for ya!

gene_ts Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I disagree One of the most problematic thing about transporting a mature tank is the sand bed, in this case, non existant. If the water can be transported to the new location, i don't see why the new owner cannot setup the tank immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upz for ya! thanks for the input... so I'm wondering if your very input is trying to do damage to my sale or helping me...??? So are you trying to tell me breaking my sale to each various part will help in cycling and dont need to go through all these process you just mention. I'm doing a sale of my things and I never mention the process of how you think you are going to carry out for that is not my part of responisble. Same like you go buy a fish, did the shop owner come tell you. You must train the fish to eat the food that you feed, quarantine it, cycle your tank before adding fish etcs??? Then he will sell it to you. Or you go buy coral and the shop owner demand you show him your tank water param and spec before he sell the coral to you. Guys I'm just selling my staff only and I never say I will take care of the process how you going to tear down my tank and transport. Anyway FYI you can do a tear down of the tank and transport and then put it back at your place with not much damage to the live stock. It all depend on how strong of your knowledge and project management. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member southpaw23 Posted August 17, 2006 SRC Member Share Posted August 17, 2006 You're right....it's not your obligation nor responsibility...but if you are asking for 15 grand from someone...common courtesy would dictate that you assist the fella in some of these task seeing that there will be significant disruptions in your household anyways...and by the way, you're not an LFS so it's not relevant. I would've expected more responsibility from reefers...not from LFS owners as they are after all in the business of making money... As to the purpose of my posting...i apologize if it appears as if it is disrupting your thread but this forum is still about educating ppl. And from the look of it these days...there's a lot of less informed individuals in this hobby. I was merely pointing out certain points for consideration. 15 grand is a lot of money...if someone were to consider buying, they should be entitled to all the information that's available. At the end of the day...i will apologize again if i have disrupted your thread and should the mods feel that i have done so, please feel free to remove my postings and i will refrain from posting any further comments. cheers.

Help and plan on how to transport the tank and staff will be out of goodwill and thus no cost is ever factor in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to buy something here, be prepared to be responsible for the sale. Sorry base on Singapore business law: A buyer is the one who make the term of offer before accept by the seller. Thus what I'm doing here is putting up a notice asking for offer. Thus the responsible lie on the buyer and not the seller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
