Any big tank owners want to downsize? Gorgeous 120g for trade!

I have kept this as a freshwater planted tank since September. I'm not sure how old it was when I got it, but I'd say less than a year.

I began compiling parts and pieces to convert to saltwater. It is a reef ready tank, and I do have the overflows and plumbing. Right now, the holes in the tank are sealed.

It is a 4x2x2 AGA tank. Stand was custom built, and if you wander over to the Tampa club forum, several members have seen it in person and commented..

What I have to go with it are:

Tank, stand, canopy
Canopy has 4x55w PC retrofits (reflectors)
Acrylic sump
Octopus NW200 skimmer w/ pump
Submersible pump..a good one, but for the life of me, I can't remember, and it's wrapped up in the box it came to me in..rated around 750gph
2 Hydor Koralia 4 powerheads (1200gph each)

I believe that's it. No calcium reactor, uv sterilizer, heater. If there's anything else, please ask. I could have forgotten something.

I am interested in a 180 or larger tank, stand, canopy, etc...as much as you have. I don't expect to find a stand as elaborate as mine, but I do want one that is in as good of a condition as mine.

The tile part that you see is a subfloor..ceramic tile. Stand on it to do maintenance. It's awesome for short people like me. The entire underneath is storage space.

I'm in Zephyrhills, 11 miles off of I-4.

BTW, the first pic shows the true color of the stand and canopy. The hangover on the stand makes it just under or right at 5'. The distance between my bar and the corner is 5'2" if IIRC...so it's probably right at 5'.

I do have cash for this upgrade and I'm very motivated! If you are not interested in trading, but have something for sale, please throw out that info! I cannot get anything until I move this one, though. I would like $1000 to sell it outright. That's what I paid for it in Sept. minus the sump, skimmer, powerheads, and pump.

Pump is Quiet One 3000.

$800 for tank, internal overflows, stand, canopy, and lights.

$1100 for all of the above plus sump, skimmer, koralia's, pump.

Here are a couple more pictures!

Oh, and I'll throw in a brand new in the box Turbo Twist 6x (18w) uv sterlizer.

Make me an offer I can't refuse, folks!!

I truly wish I could afford the tank. I'm looking for that exact size and the cabinetry is absolutely gorgeous. It would go great with what we're planning in the living room as well.

Bad timing I guess. Good luck with the sale, whoever acquires this will have one beautiful display.

If it's still available in a month or two, I would definitely be interested in seeing what we can work out.

No, thank you!! BTW, the actinic bulbs got left behind. Want me to mail them to you, or will you be in Tampa soon?

 

[loosbrew]

oh wow. We've been so busy this weekend that I didn't notice! I'm not out that way too often, but how new are they? I would probebly not use them if they're old and spent.

Thanks!

I have no idea. They were given to me when I bought the setup.
