Leaving the hobby =-(

[Sndwave80]

All-

I have had an amazing time keeping salt water and many of know the joy it can bring. I have recently accepted a new position at LHI (promotion), but it now requires me to travel a lot. I have had two full crashes now within in the last year as I have been very busy and neglecting my duties to my animals. With this I have decided to part my ways with the salt water world for the time being. I am going to keep much of the equipment, but all the live stock will need to go. I am also moving (still in the LaX area), just to a new location in Oct. and would like not to move all the critters too. Below area all the animals I will be selling off and the equipment I will be selling once all the live stock has been sold. My camera is not working right now so no pics. You are more than willing to PM me and arrange for a visit to see everything first hand. I will remain a member of LARK and TRT, so don’t think you can bad mouth yet!

Corals:

Congrats on the promotion, bummer on shutting the tank down Chris.

[ReefLuvR]

I"m sorry to hear you're leaving the hobby Chris. But I'm guessing you'll probably come back. I think we all do. LOL

Best of luck to you in the future. I hope everything you hope for comes from your promotion.

God Bless,
Jennifer

Im interested in the Kalk Reactor, LMK when the time comes to sell it Chris!

[schneijt]

I'm sorry to hear that, Chris. But, congrats on the promotion and the success that's forcing your out of the hobby for the time being. I'm interested in the chiller, but don't have the funds right now. I might by the time you're ready to part ways with it, so keep me in mind, but sell it to someone else if he/she has the cash for it right away.

Thanks Chris, and hopefully we'll see you with a tank again soon!
