Moving and need some help or advice

[dfadler]

I live in San Jose and am planning on moving to Missouri near the end of 2021. Because of the distance and the complexity of the move I decided that I won’t be able to keep my fish. This is unfortunate but it could work out well for someone interested in taking over my tank. In addition to the tank I currently have going I also have a lot of used gear including tanks, lights, filters, pumps, and sumps, etc etc...

I would give it all away if I could know my fish would have a good home. Here is the catch, this is a reef forum and I have a planted tank. Most if not all of you probably wouldn’t be interested in my offer but I’m hoping that maybe there are a few or maybe you know someone who would be. Attached are some pictures to go by and if there is interest I can give a more thorough list and description of everything I have.

The aquarium I wish someone to take over is a 75 gallon which is shown in one of the pictures. It has a decent stand and a modest assortment of pretty basic tropical fish. The fish in the tank are as follows.

11 Black Skirt Tetras
6 Tiger Barbs
Around 20 assorted Molly and Platy

Even if you aren’t interested please let me know if you have any ideas for how I may find a new home for my fish.

This should take no time at all.

Beautiful tank! We have a few people here with planted tanks. I’m sure it’ll get taken care of.

It would help to at least list out the fish.

What fish are in there? I have a heavily planted tank. Maybe move this to the pay it forward section?

My aquarium addiction would love to but I too am moving in February and have no idea how I am moving my little 60 gallon reef and 2 freshwater aquariums to San Diego.

The tank and stand are around two years old, they were new when I got them and have never been moved. The glass has a few scratches from some sand getting under the algae scrubber.

Did you ever find anyone to adopt your fish?

Not yet, I’m happy to provide any information on them and the gear I have if you would like.

I would definitely be interested. I have a friend with a 72 bow front she just re did. Planted freshwater. As well as several planted fresh myself. Would also be interested in the hear too.

Whatever works for you.
