Everything has to go - Dr's orders!

Due to increasingly worse allergic reactions, I have no choice but to get out of the hobby.
I've already got rid of the biggest tank we had (never even got the chance to set it up) and a 55 gallon.

Here's what's left:

Tank 1
1- 90gallon tank with glass top, single tube light hood &
stand (light honey oak),
1 Fluval 404 & 1 AC110 filters,
1 CoraLife Turbo Twist X3 UVS,
1 400W heater with guard,
1 electronic thermometer,
1 large bell deco,
1 small tree stump deco,
a full length background paper,
1 large net.
Substrata:
half is 1/4"-1/2" neutral tone rounded gravel,
the other half is 2"-5" light to dark rounded river rocks.
Also one 1-3/4" thick, 9" long triangular slab of black slate & 6 colored glass eggs.
Plants:
5 fake plants (only 2 left in tank due to Rajah the Oscar pulling them out.)
Occupants:
1 medium Tiger Oscar (Rajah)
2 Ornate Bichir (Cheetah & Jag)
{Cheetah has recovered completely & both get along fine so long as temp stays under 80F.}
1 medium large Common Pleco (Hoover)

Tank 2
23 gallon (Long) with glass top and Coralife FW dual T5 tube light bar.
1 Fluval 104 filter & 1 AC30,
1 AA low voltage UVS,
1 200W heater with guard,
1 electronic thermometer,
2 medium chunks of Mopani driftwood,
12" ghost house tube.
1 medium net.
Pellet CO2 setup (not used anymore)
Substrata:
1/4"-1/2" neutral tone rounded gravel
Plants:
4 small fake plants,
4 real Amazon Sword plants (1 medium, 3 small)
3 large growths of Cabomba.
((This tank is great for growing Cabomba!))
Occupants:
1 Senegal Bichir (Puma)
1 BGK (Sparky)
1 L190 (Tux)
1 male Ancistrus SP3 (Sweeper)
1 Synodontis sp3 (Spots)
3 small clown loaches (Curly Larry & Moe)
2 Vampire shrimp (Vlad & Lilith)
a few Ghost shrimp are still lurking around too.

Tank 3
10 gallon with full black lid & single mini Fluorescent light.
Penguin 100 & AC 20 filters
50W submersible heater with guard,
A small "coral bound trio of barrels" deco,
1 small fine mesh net.
Substrata:
1/4"-1/2" neutral tone rounded gravel,
3-3" rounded stones and a 3.5" square slab of slate.
Plants:
1 small fake amazon sword.
2 sections of real Cabomba.
Occupants:
4 female/1 male Pineapple swordtails
2 female Sunburst Platy,
1 male Twin Black Bar Platy
(a dozen various platy & sword babies)
1 L018 Golden Nugget (Klondike) 2"
1 male Ancistrus SP5 (Lacey)3"
1 flower shrimp (Tulip)

Tank 4
10 gallon with glass top plus full black lid & compact Florescent bulbs.
Penguin 100 filter
100W non-submersible HOB heater,
a small "sea turtle on coral" deco,
Substrata:
1/4"-1/2" neutral tone rounded gravel.
2 "3 rounded stones.
Plants:
2 sections of real Cabomba (1 anchored, 1 floating) & Duckweed.
Occupants:
1 female Ancistrus SP4 (Goldilocks)2.75"
1 small medium mesh net.

Other items:
Books & Magazines:
1 - The Guide to Owning Oscars, by Richard F Stratton.
1 - Guide to the Healthy Aquarium, by Dr. Neville Carrington.
a few issues of Aquarium fish & Aquarium USA 2006 annual.
5 other various sized fake plants,
Foods (freeze dried shrimp cubes, algae discs, pellet & sinking sticks),
100 Meal worms
approx 1.25L of Big Al's water conditioner,
remainder of FW Master test kit,
brand new filter hose & tube cleaning brush set,
1- 25' python cleaning hose (attaches to sink)
1- 6' python cleaning hose (gravity fed type)
C-cell battery powered tank vac.
each tank has a veggie clip.

The age of the various equipment is 9 months or less.
The first one to show up with $700 CDN, takes it all.
It's a great deal for anyone in the Toronto/Hamilton/Niagara falls area of Southern Ontario.
The email is sc0repio(AT)mountaincable.net.
Just replace the (AT) with an @ - I used it to foil email searchbots.

My daughter is upset about it, but fully agrees with our decision.
She says "If it's a choice of my Daddy getting sick or us keeping our fish, I'd rather have Daddy stay outta the hospital thank you very much."

This is a MUST SELL ASAP deal.
For my health and the fish's sake, the sooner, the better.
My daughter adds:
"Please come and give our fish a good home!"

LOL, i sometimes think putting plecos in a tank is a bit like putting liquid ammonia into your tank, its adding to the bioload, and you dont see it after its hit the water.

I'm sorry you have to give up your fish Scorpio.
Wish I were closer, I am looking into buying a larger tank myself.
All the best to you.

Scorpi-O, I am so sorry to hear this...what a bummer!
Mr. Claude lives in Buffalo, NY. I'm not sure how far away that is from you, but maybe you can PM or email him. I'm sure he would be interested. I just hope he's around as I haven't seen him online much these days...with school being out he's probably quite busy, but I'd give him a shout...definitely.

To Any & All that have responded to this Via Email

I'm very sorry to anyone that wrote to me, but I get a fairly high volume of spam emails everyday - over 200 in a 24hr period is quite common for me (The record so far is 487 in one day).

It's come to my attention that my email's "spam" filter has been quite overzelous in it's operation & has deleted a few responses to this posting.
If you still have a copy of your emails to me, please check to make sure the email has a title in the subject line ((as my filters autodelete anything without a subject)) and resend.

I Thank you in advance for your understanding.

I still have all the equipment & fish yet.
If I can get enough people to buy all the parts at once, or at least within the same week, I'd split the tanks up....but for my health reasons, I would really prefer to sell it as a package.

PS, Thanks for the hint ladysparky, I'll send Mr C a note.
