I still have my 180 I'd like to get rid of. I wasn't really in a hurry to sell but with the recent failure of a protein skimmer I think maybe nows the time to get rid of this to pay for my skimmer. What I have is:

180 gallon truvu tank with 2 corner overflows. I think the dimensions are 6x2x2. Comes with pine colored stand and canopy. this tank also comes with a 100 gallon plexiglass tank acting as a sump. Its already inside the stand. Asking $300 for this setup.

Also available is metal halide light. 2 250watt icecap ballast and 2 vho. VHO bulbs come with the setup but I don't have any MH bulbs. This comes in a PFO pendant about 4 ft long. I had this hanging off the ceiling to light up this tank. VHO ballast are also included (unsure if its electronic or not). Asking $340 for this (not a bad deal if you've ever priced out the pendant prices!).

I'd prefer to sell this as a package and would let it go for $500 even. OR if you have a recirculating protein skimmer I think we may be able to work out some kind of trade. I'm looking for either H&S or maybe even a Euroreef.

Anyway if your interested please PM me with you number and I'll get back to you. I take pay pal if you wanna leave a non-refundable deposit or you can just swing by and check it out.
 
Hey Andy, it's been awhile since I saw your tank, but do you have any photos of the set-up? Are there any significant scratches on the tank?
 
I'm interested also. I have the same question as nasotang. Also can you send me some pics (Elitehvc at gmail dot com). How thick is the acrylic? Thanks
 
Tanks located in San Francisco. Lots of little scratches here and there from years of usage but nothing really bad (ie someone draging a magnetic cleaner with sand under it). When you fill it with water you can't even tell. I'll measure the thickness tonight and post pictures tonight also.

I've seen Andy's tank - this setup is a steal folks.

The stand and canopy are really nice condition too - it's not all banged up.

PM me if you have any questions.
 
yah, didn't see the cracks mentioned in the description :p still probably a good deal just for the stand and sump though. have the cracks been repaired or does the top panel need to be replaced somehow?
 
I can understand the fear of the cracks but those cracks have been there for a very long time and the tank does not bulge. You don't need to replace the top pane. I didn't do anything to fix it since no fixing is really needed.
 
that would make a great sump (with a little bit of planning and some acrylic work) :). LMK if it is still up for sale :). And if anyone else wants the canopy/stand ... :D
 
Hey Tom I'll take the canopy and stand if you want to take everything else.. The 100g sump is still in the stand as well I think.. You just want the main tank right?
 
I tried to respond to your PM fishnfst, but your inbox is full :). Sure, just the tank is fine with me. I already have 2 other 100 and 110 gallon acrylic tanks (one being used as a sump currently, that build thread is around here somewhere :D)
 
I think Justin above is interested in buying it and is coming by on friday. If he doesn't want it you guys are welcome to come check it out this weekend (depending on which day I go ab diving).
 
Sorry guys, this tank is spoken for. Future home of:

I know, not a reef, but it will have a 125g reef next to it.
