This is the perfect ZE with upgrades!
Had this in the dining room for the last several years. Wife loves it. Every person that walks through the door says "œWOW, what is that!" This is a show stopper. If anyone has seen my ZE and agrees, please give me a "œ+1".
So why give it up?......Love this hobby but"¦"¦.I'm starting some new interests, so reallocating my time and money.
Here's what you get for $500 (retailed for well over $1000)
Tank
Cabinet
All necessary plumbing
Light fixture! That's 150w DE MH, two 24w T5's, moonlight LED's, cooling fans hanging post. Each has its own plug, so they can be on separate timers. (This alone retails over $500)
Huge Upgrade Mod: I redesigned the system to operate like the Herbie Overflow system. That means: The system is SILENT! You can stand right next to the tank and you hear"¦"¦.nothing! No waterfalls. It's been tested hundreds of times and it never has, nor ever will, overflow.
Bonus options:
If you're a tinkerer, I have designed an anti-siphon mechanism to prevent it from draining if power is lost. No unreliable check valves are used and failure is almost impossible (no moving parts, just good physics). I have this setup here but will require some tinkering to customize it to your home. More than happy to help.
I probably have enough extra reef gear laying around to set this up anyway you want. I'll sell that gear at bargain basement prices.
I have coral and clams that I would also sell at discounted prices with purchase.
What do you need to get it running?
That depends on how you want to set it up. It will need a sump, return pump, and any accessories you want to add (i.e. skimmer, heater, etc"¦). I have it plugged in to my main display so I don't need repetitive equipment. This has worked extremely well, plug and play!
Please pm interest. Pickup is in St. Charles. Willing to split travel if needed. Stop by to see it in person. Thanks, Ed
