If this is local pickup why aren’t you willing to take cash?
Zelle and Bank of America isn’t a form of payment.
If someone pays you with PayPal, it’d be goods and services. As soon as they get the coral they can simply tell PayPal you never sent it and they’d get their money back....

You also have Vermetid Snails. Not many will buy these.
Probably want to read up on the rules here.

wish i was closer. good luck with sale and dont listen to the haters

I bought from this guy and his corals are beautiful.

hmm, haters only hate when they lose coral to pests like these.
If you clearly take photos of pests that’s not hating, it’s saving someone else a word of headache if they bought this and didn’t put them in a QT. Some people don’t have access to that.

No one ever said he was a bad seller. Just has a few pests issues he should clear up before trying to sell coral to another reefer.

Unless the seller says he has pests then someone will always say something. It should be a disclosure. He clearly knows he has them, so why not add it in when selling?

For all it's worth, I had no idea that those were pests. I always had them so I didn't think anything suspicious of them. Thanks for letting me know and I won't be selling these until pest free. Makes me mad I got the pests probably from someone so I don't want to give it to others knowingly. Thanks for your input.

Might want to check your frags for any pests.... I'm so sorry about that had no idea they were pests. Hopefully you got frags from new frag plugs so less likely you got them.

Great prices on those zoas! I would just drop in some bumblebee snail for the vermitid. They aren't big deal and I just cut them off when i get a frag.

I am not sure but since I added them, I don't see the tube or the worm.

just wanted to chime in and say it was not my intention to hate when naming the hydroids, I happen to find them on a zoa frag I recently added and was researching them so I am familiar. They thrive when you are target feeding your Zoas and are not effected by dips. Here is the Thread about them. ( https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/here-it-is-fenbendazole-use-against-hydroids.214950/ ) I am considering this treatment for my tank.

Nice corals and prices. For what its worth, I dont even consider vermetid snails a pest and wouldnt hesitate to buy frags with visible vermetids on them. I've never seen them cause problems in a tank, and they are the easiest "pest" to eliminate from new frags if a person cared to.

I took down a tank because of them. I didn't know what they were and was trying to scrub them off and they ended up all over the tank. When I finally figured out what they were I could never get control.

how many would be good for a 40 gallon?
