ChrisNorris Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Hi Guys, It's a sad day for me as I have decided to sell my beloved Discus setup. I got into discus about 4 years ago and have expanded my collected ever since. Since then I have finished my university degree and moved into full time work and unfortunately no longer have time to maintain this wonderful setup. So here it goes: Dry Goods: • 6x2x2 Aquarium o 18 Months Old o Built by Mick of Aquarium and Petland Southport o No obvious scratches, all lids in tact o • 6x2x2 Open Stand o Painted Black • 3 x Aquaclear 70 Hang on Filters o Full with Seachem Matrix • 2 x Jager 150W Heater • 6 Foot Supreme Aqua Quad Bulb Light o Comes with hanging kit • Eheim 400 Dual Air Pump o Only used for total of 1 week o Comes with original bubblers Live Stock: • 2 x Pigeonblood Discus (Females) • Both Fish Hand Picked by Rod Lewis o o o • 2 x Penang Eruption Discus (Males) • Both Fish from Shaun Sykes (ssdiscus) that anybody who is anybody knows is an extremely respectable breeder. These fish originated from Rod Lewis • 2 x Curipera Cross Discus (Sex Unknown) • Both Fish Hand Picked and Specially Ordered by Rod Lewis • These fish are extremely rare in Australia and as far as i know, there have only been two shipments delivered to Australia o (35 Seconds into Video)o • All Fish Recently Wormed • 2 – 4 Large Peppermint Bristlenose Other Random Goodies: • Driftwood • Food • Floating Plants • Medicine • Thermometers • Test Kits • Cleaning Utensils • Water pumps • Chemicals • Sponge Filters • Professional Clay Breeding Pots • Nets Additional Notes: Anyone that knows me knows that I am OCD for quality. I will only purchase things that I believe to be the highest quality from the most respectable sources. This setup has been my pride and joy for the past year and now I want to see this go to someone that can appreciate it as much as I have. I am in no rush to sell this setup, this is not about the money for me, so please do not try and lowball me with a ridiculous offer. I will not be able to deliver this setup, you will need to come and do it yourself with the help of a friend of two as I live in an apartment and maneuvering the tank in such a small space is very tricky (I am however more than happy to help) I live in Mermaid Beach of the Gold Coast I am not willing to separate this setup as yet - so please do not send me offers on individual pieces The New Price is $1000 FIRM If you have any questions, please feel free to PM me or contact me at any reasonable hour: 0403 570 505 Christopher@news.net Kind Regards, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisNorris Posted June 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Price drop to $1500 for it all because of numerous PMs regarding splitting this set up. I would really rather sell it as a whole. Cheers, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zane Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 If you do decide to split I would be keen on the 2 x Pigeonblood Discus (Females). No pressure though, GL with the sale. gorgeous fish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssdiscus Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Hi Chris, Those Discus in your pics are simply stunning. Anyone would want those in their collection. GLWTS mate. Hope you're well! Cheers mate, Shaun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottRock Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 I was sitting here in front of my computer thinking about buying your set up just for the two Curipera Cross Discus. If no one buys your set-up I'll have the Curipera Cross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisNorris Posted August 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Hi guys thanks for all the interest and kind words.

Aquatic Paradise Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 It's crazy that this has not sold, the fish alone are worth more than $900.
