After ten years I no longer have the passion that I once had for the hobby so the entire 300 gallon system is for sale. I will only sell the system complete, unless someone takes the livestock, corals and rock first. The system is not a turn key set up as it is built into the entry way of my house with a remote filtration room. This is over 12k of equipment and livestock; asking $4500 from someone who can give it the time and care that it deserves.

You can find a recent video of the tank at http://youtu.be/EPsFvrab-dw

Specs:
190 gallon display tank
125 gallon sump
40 gallon fuge
50 gallon top off system

more...more..more... too much to list. If it has to deal with the tank, it goes with it. Everything from water storage to SW mixing pumps, hoses etc...

If the tank doesn't go as a complete unit, I will consider parting it out in a month or so.

I am in Western Colorado, about 2.5 hours from Denver on I-70.
 
Here is a price breakdown for livestock if you are close by...

Parting out Large (300 gallon) Reef Tank, starting with the corals. Video of coals from several months ago can be found at http://youtu.be/EPsFvrab-dw -Corals are now larger than in the video. Prices are not firm and reasonable offers will be considered. These corals are not the “frags” you get from a vendor, but most are large, healthy colonies. Buyer is responsible for pickup and transport. I will not ship, nor do I have anything to put the corals in. Buyer should bring a large container to hold the coral and I’ll supply enough water to get it home. Thanks!

Looks like all corals are sold and a deal is pending on the fish.
 
I've had a couple offers thrown at me for $600 for both mp40s and the battery back up. Honestly, I just got the livestock sold today, aside from about 200lbs of rock and the house decented;) Si I have not thought much about the equipment stuff. Wanted to make sure all the fish and corals went to a good home first.

I'll be cleaning up the rest of the stuff Thursday and Friday and will be ready to start selling equipment by next Saturday I hope.

OK, I'm in junction. I'll match that 600. What about lighting? How much for it all, I'm setting up a 210 from scratch...
 
Hey hop.., thanks man! Did you happen to come across one rubber piece that goes in the dry side between the glass? Missing one..,

No, but I'll look around. I'll see if it fell off when I took it off the tank and fell between the tank and the wall.
 
I may be down there Saturday. If your up sooner, let me know and I'll put it somewhere for you.
 
$100 bucks for all of it? Aside from a couple small pieces I need to set up a 20 gallon? A blenny made it through the move and I spotted him in the rubbermaid tub. Need to give him a home until I meet up with the guy that bought all the livestock.
 
Sounds good. You still have my cell? If not just shoot me a PM and I'll give it to you again.
