Met up with a guy yesterday that I found on C-list. Got a brand new Rena xP4 for $70. Today same guy DELIVERED four 250mL bottles of Prime, 8.8ozHikari Cichlid Bio-Gold, 8.8oz Hikari Algae Wafers, 200watt Fluval M200 submersible heater, 200watt Marineland Stealth Pro Heater (submersible & shatter proof), 300g Seachem Malawi/Victoria Buffer, and 350g Seachem Cichlid Lake Salt ALL for $40. He's getting me a NIB FX5 for $50 (with media) when he gets them in. He usually sells the FX5s for $100, but, since he was out of them when I contacted him & I went ahead and bought the xP4 instead, he's selling me one for what he pays and throwing in media for free. Guy lives just a couple miles from me. I may never go to the LFS again. (I admit, originally I thought it was a scam or that he would try to jack me, but the guy is trying to get a store opened in the next year or two and it helps him with his supplier to move a lot of merch and build a client base up. He's more interested in developing some customer loyalty and maintaining a great relationship with his supply guy. I am lovin it.)


If he ships I will be a loyal customer

Here's one of the guy's recent ads. He's located in Lexington, KY. http://lexington.craigslist.org/mat/1935809242.html
I have his phone number, but I can't get hold of him right now. I don't want to overwhelm him without checking first. I may recommend he set himself up on MFK or let me help him. When I finally talked to him and gave him my list of stuff I wanted, he went even lower than the prices he quotes in his CList ads. He uses flat rate shipping when possible and is a more than reasonable dude. Only thing I can say against him is that he is hard to get ahold of sometimes.

I agree completely. The last thing we (the MFK community) should want to do is slam him w/o warning.

I'll pm

This is a beautiful custom made Tenecor Fish tank. I am sad to be selling this because it is such and awesome tank. I was got this tank and planned on refinishing it because of its beauty and potential. Unfortunately for me I am a full time college student and worker. I do not have time for finishing this, and I hate to see it go. I currently have a needle fish in the tank with is more than welcome to go with the tank. I have gotten rid of my other 2 fish tanks because of my lack of available time. The tank is currently empty and clean, because I am moving.

It is rather easy to buff out the scratches that you see in the tank, and I am willing to share my knowledge from all of my research of how to do it. I will also post a few links at the bottom of this description to show the lighting system, tenecor website, and how to get scratches out. It would probably take about 4 – 5 hours to get the sanding and buffing done to get the tank back to its perfect condition.

The dimensions of the tank itself are 48 x 18 x 24 (inches), and it is an 85 gallon tank. The stand and tank dimensions are 50 long x 20 wide x 62 tall (inches). I have a few accessories and liquids for the tank that will go with the tank. I bought the filter for this tank about 1 year ago and it has worked amazingly. The filter cost me $140. Tenecor.com has this setup of the tank and stand costing $1904. The light bar, which is a JBJ Lightsystems pl-jg3 36 inch lights are listed for $200-300. The whole system is in great condition other than the scratches which can be easily removed. Acrylic is a very soft material so you need to be careful of what you are using to clean it.

I am asking way under half price for this tank, which it is defiantly worth. $900 is my asking price, I am moving soon and I will take the best offer. Thank you for your interest and please feel free to contact me with any questions. In order to keep out spam, I only respond to people that leave Names, Numbers. Thanks again!

Here are some sites with the details of the equipment for sale, as well as quick and easy acrylic repairs.

I have his needle fish and saw the tank:screwy::screwy::screwy:!!!!!

Have fun,
