I live in the west loop.

Whoever takes the above has to take the terrible 40 gallon all glass tank that I tried to turn into a ghetto sump. It's fits underneath nicely.

I have a few people with dibs, so this is gone for the time being. I will let you know if it opens up again.

So far , people have pulled out before coming. I wont be available till Tuesday next week after tomorrow. Is there any way you can come tomorrow ? Or tonight ?
I never figured it would be this hard to give away $50-60 worth of sand.......

Blackhawk007 · 04/14/2011, 01:41 PM

I have 3 panes of star fire glass that are free to who ever can pick them up. These need to be cut down to make a good tank since the edges are all rough, but they are huge so they need to be cut either way. 2 panes are 24"X30" and the big pane is 96"X30". All panes are 1/2 thick. No scratches but again the 1" that was under the trim is rough.

BADGUS · 04/14/2011, 03:28 PM

I'll take the glass

Blackhawk007 · 04/14/2011, 03:39 PM

The glass is accounted for, no longer available.

bigdaddystar · 04/14/2011, 03:41 PM

Cool deal........good man

GF3 · 04/14/2011, 04:37 PM

ITeach2Wheels · 04/22/2011, 01:57 PM

Still trying to give away some of my leathers/softies and pallys too. I also have some blue clove polyps I can frag.

All free, if you want to share something you have that would be great, but definitely not necessary.

This is the BEST thread I have ever read.. It truly captures the meaning of being a reef hobbyist... Wish i lived a little closer

RockOn681 · 04/22/2011, 09:13 PM

This is a give away thread. You must meet the 50 posts and 90 day membership to trade or sell. And not in this thread~dc

SkullV · 04/22/2011, 11:40 PM

This is really just a thread for people to give stuff away for free (in return for good reefing karma

). Unfortunately you will not be able to post a selling or trading thread anywhere on reef central until you have been a member for 90 days and have accumulated at least 50 meaningful posts.

Not a big score, but i have 3 nice pieces of live rock available, probably 7-10lbs of rock. Free pick-up in the Algonquin area for anyone who needs it. One of the rocks has a small emerald crab on it as well, so bonus score. I couldn't get him off or else he'd be in my DT.

dann60 · 05/09/2011, 08:03 PM
