Breaking down large system

Hello,

I am planning on breaking down a fairly large system over the next year. I am hoping to get some thoughts and potentially offers on the various system components and livestock. Ideally I'd like to get rid of everything over a few steps to the same person and not have to deal with several people. The system has been up and running for 6 years, everything is happy and healthy, no problems, no diseases, etc"¦ Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Here is a rough breakdown of my system:

Entire system is centrally plumbed together, these tanks are all drilled.
~20ea 20g high
3ea 40g long
4ea 33g long
1ea 150g display tank with black stand
1 Hamilton canopy 2x400W Halide (electronic) w/4cfl
1 ea MRC Reeflo orca pro 2 skimmer
1 Manta Ray pump
1 Iwaki MD100RLT
2 ea aquac remora skimmers
1ea spectrapure 5 stage RO/DI 180GPD (with double RO)
2 large sumps (large black tubs from Agway)
Various other tanks, supplies, etc"¦

Livestock:
~10 various clownfish
1 large blue spot grouper
1 large narrow line puffer
1 medium/large blue Blue Girdled Angel
1 medium purple tang
Might have a couple banggai cardinals hiding out
 
Also, I forgot. I also have the following.

~150lbs fiji live rock
~100 lbs live sand in refugiums
 
I would be interested in the purple tang. How long have you had it and what does it eat? Where are you located?

Thanks
 
Thanks Fhazie. I don't have any good pics. Basically, I converted our basement laundry room in to a fish room. The display tank is in the finished part of the basement. IME, it's good to have concrete floor under a big system like this, floods are inevitable :D.
 
I've had the purple tang for about 5 years. He eats everything. I would prefer to find someone to take most of the livestock if possible.
