Full Setup, established 135 Gal Saltwater Reef Tank. This is a beauty that I have to sell because we are moving up North. Setup includes display tank, stand/canopy, lighting, 30 gal under tank sump with section for refugium, and all livestock, drygoods and equipment listed below:

Livestock:
Purple Tang
Flame Angelfish
3 Pajama Cardinals
Tiger Cucumber
A few misc snails and hermits

Many corals, fully encrusting most of the live/custom rockwork, some of which are:
Orange, blue/green, and purple ricordea
Huge Yellow Torch
Green Star Polyps
Yellow Polyps
Mushrooms: Fluorescent green, Green striped, Green Tipped Hairy, Purple striped
Chocolate button polyps
Orange rimmed mushrooms
Fox coral
Lots of varieties of Zoas: Fire/Ice, Eagle eye, Green rim, other...
Blastomussa
Probably more I'm forgetting...

Equipment:
Display - 135 Gal 72w x 22h x 18d
Sump/Fuge - 30 Gal sectional sump with 900gph return pump and section for refugium (roughly 10gal fuge section)
Euroreef RS135 protein skimmer with upgraded Eheim pump
Tunze Osmolator Top off controller
Reefkeeper lite for lighting and alternating modded Maxi-Jet "wave" control
32" wood stand and matching canopy with built in lighting
Lighting is 4x 80 T5's driven by 2 IceCap 430 ballasts
Tank has built-in custom aragocrete/styrofoam background and custom rockwork that you have to see to appreciate!

Tons of other extras to go with it to complete the package, including test kits, supplements, extra Mag Drive and Euroreef pumps, extra tubing, food, salt, etc.

Looking to sell the package as a whole asap since we are moving. This has been a labor of love for me for more than 10 years. Asking $1500 for the entire setup. I will assist with the breakdown and move as much as possible.
I am located in Rancho Santa Margarita.

I'm not a great photographer but hopefully these pics do the tank a little more justice. If anyone is interested in pics of anything specific, equipment or livestock, let me know.

Will do. Posting on Craigslist :(
If I can't get this sold as a whole I may start parting it out in a week or two.
 
If you decide to start parting out I would love to pick up some mushrooms/ricordea off you. I will be in Laguna Beach this weekend and could pick up from you.
 
Okay no takers on the full setup. I will sell all livestock, including all corals + live rock/ rock islands / panels covering the back + fish for $700. I can't really do individual coral pieces without destroying the rockwork, but I am open to offers on individual rocks (most are covered in variety of corals). The center island I will offer for $300 (its pretty awesome!), the rest are negotiable. PM me if you want close ups of anything in particular.
 
If I had the space, this beautiful setup would have been mine long ago. I keep coming back to your thread and wishing I could buy it. Others may be in a similar situation, don't be discouraged that it hasn't sold. Simply, the right buyer hasn't come along yet :). Your price is fair and you can tell you worked hard on the tank and kept it up many years.
 
Sorry all, busy weekend... and apparently wasn't subscribed to my own thread so wasn't getting post updates.

PM replied danny.

And thx Rick, yes, this is a heartbreaker for me to give up... lots of love and sweat has gone into this.

fyi no chiller with this system. As it is (T-5's with an exhaust fan built in to the canopy) it doesn't need one, the tank runs about 5-6 degrees hotter than room temp, so as long as the room its in stays below 80 it is perfect.
