For Sale from Greg Young. Contact him directly if interested at 537-2830 after 6pm
I have a complete quarantine and overwintering system for sale, which includes
a 6 ft show tank and cover, an Aquadyne 60B bead filter system with a Jacuzzi
pump, and a stainless steel UV1 Pond Star UV light (rated for a 5,000 gallon
pond), along with black flex pvc pipe and fittings. This system was used only
once for a 6 week quarantine of new Koi a few years back, and is in excellent
condition! I have all manuals. This system will allow indoor wintering of your
Koi, to prevent the losses folks have been experiencing with the bad recent winters. The show tank (and other equipment) quickly breaks down and stores easily, once the fish are back
outside. The cost of all of the above came to a little over $2600. Will sell complete for $850. Will sell without
the UV, but otherwise complete, for $550.
I also have a Kichi Koi buffet feeder, where the Koi are able to feed themselves, and no electricity is required. This includes a heavy duty iron screw and support pole, to mount the feeder out over the water. It
sells for $180. It is in excellent shape. I’m asking only $60. Here’s a link to it: http://www.koipondfever.com/

I have a water scarecrow that deters birds and other animals. It is very effective! It runs off of a 9 volt battery and your hose. It sells for $80. I’m asking only $40. Here’s a link to it: http://www.petco.com/

These are being offered to the club members first, before being put on Craigslist ,etc. Call me at 537-2830
after 6pm if interested in purchasing.
