The Official Pay-It-Forward (PIF) Thread
 
A long time ago a RC member jjjimmy started a PIF thread that after a while went haywire and ended up getting closed. Many of us here thought that thread was a great idea and would like to see it back. So let's try this again. Please only post here is you're giving something away or are interested in something that is being given away. Keep all opinions, concerns, requests, etc out of this thread. I will be sending a message to one of the mods here to request a sticky.

I'll start this off: free cheato in the northern suburbs (this is all I have right now as I'm recovering from loosing almost everything during my move last year). Send me a PM and we'll arrange a pickup.

ChicagoReefOne 01/06/2011 11:12 AM

I think it's appropriate to post a link to jjjimmy's first PIF thread. At the time it was closed it had 408 replies and 28,607 views. RIP. Let's just have a tad more patience in the future when something goes wrong--no one is out to get the PIF thread. :thumbsup:

That said: I am giving away a bunch of monti caps this weekend, Sat 1/8. :dance: They are given as received, on the PIF basis, first-come-first-served, no holds. Check my thread for the details.

Also pferboy has orange montis that she/he seems to want to get rid of, so holler at 'em today. I hope it's cool to post that here.


THE PIF THREAD IS DEAD! LONG LIVE THE PIF THREAD! :jester:

I have an Odyssea PS-160 protein skimmer I'd like to give away. It is in like new condition, actually I'm not sure it was ever even used. There's a thread on them here somewhere, really solid skimmer. It's just collecting dust in my garage.

I'll say this right off the bat. Keep this on topic. All crap will be deleted and the poster will get a time out. And if we have to do too many it will permanantly die.

Please don't ruin it for the one's who are participating. Sadly if you act like children, we'll treat you as such.

I expect no replies here!

Well, I'm new here, but I'm down.
I really don't have much to give, but I have some sponge bob decor from my fresh water tank. I have the pineapple, squidwards house, spongebob, squidward, sandy, and patrick. I'm diggin the vibe here, so anyone who wants it can take it. I'm in South Elgin.

Pufferpunk 01/13/2011 11:30 PM

Got the puffer?

Carriegiesler 01/15/2011 03:02 PM

I have a 3inch stick of Green slimer if anyone is interested. Pick up in Albany Park 60625
I am looking for some Pom Pom Xenia if any has any for a possible trade or for free.

jrpark22000 01/17/2011 08:38 AM

Black long spinned urchin. He's about 3 inches across with spines, his body about 3/4" across. I want the healthy little bulldozer gone before I travel. He's an algae eating fool, but leaves my coraline alone.


NW Indiana location. Drop me a pm if you want him and his blue/orange bum.

I'm in NW Indiana and I'd love to take him off your hands but all I have to put him in now is an 8-gallon Biocube. I don't think he'd be too happy in there. I would think there are some urchins I might be able to keep in there, but a long-spined probably isn't one of them.

Thoughts?

I have a 2" Humu Humu trigger that I would like out of my DT by Tomorrow night. I wouldn't turn down some LPS or Zoas but nothing is necessary. I'm around all night tonight or tomorrow after 7 if you are interested.

OpTiCz 01/23/2011 04:42 PM

I'd take it if it stayed small :(

3 Good Size Green Slimer Frags For Free... First Come First Serve- I will not deliver you must pick up...

Thanks

foursquare 01/23/2011 09:58 PM

free 30 gal tank, stand and sump
 
I got this tank for free from fijiblue and thought i would use it as a QT. it's too big for that. i only used it to hold some live rock with some coral on it.
no meds or copper in tank from what i can tell.

I'll try to get a pic up but in the meantime search for fijiblue post about a free tank, there is a picture on his post.

bluemike81 01/23/2011 10:03 PM

foursquare....pm sent

falonchristie 01/24/2011 11:13 AM

Hello,
I started a 55gal reef tank about 4-5 months ago. I have 2 clownfish, snails, goby, emrald crabs and a blue starfish. I have not added any coral or frags to my tank as of yet. I just updated to the t5 lighting and was curious if anyone had any frags they would like to give away. I'm in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
Thanks,
Falon

Pufferpunk 01/24/2011 11:21 AM

I've got several freebies for you. When are you coming to Chgo?
