Everyone,
Now that I have my 92 corner tank I need to get rid of my old tank, sump, stand and a few other pieces of equipment.
The tank is an AGA 38g that is 36L x 12W x 20H. The tank setup is perfect that wants a smaller reef setup as it has been drilled for with a custom internal overflow that has (2) 1†overflows. This handled my 600gph pump (after head loss) with no issues. There are also holes drilled for a CL which includes a 1.5†Closed loop intake, and (4) ¾†returns (2 high and 2 low). The tank is painted on 3 sides, since it was in the bookcase. There are a couple scratches (no more than 1-1.5 inces each) on the inside front glass, but honestly no one ever noticed except for me. The setup is ready for BB, I had a piece of black starboard cut to size and it is in the bottom of the tank. If you want to put sand in the tank instead, you can always take it out. I will also include most of the plumbing for this setup except for a couple of pieces. If you have ever done PVC work you know who much this could save you.
The sump is a 37 column tank ( 20"w x 18"l x 25"h). I had pieces of glass cut for this to split the tank into 3 sections, the skimmer/o verflow (about 8 g), the fuge another 8g, then the return area which had baffles and return area. Because of this setup, I never had air bubbles in the display, and the water was always clear.
In addition, to the sump and the tank, the stand, really a high quality bookcase is also available.
This tank was great for housing LPS and soft corals. I never invested in lights to have SPS thrive, but I did have an Acro and a couple Monti’s in the tank that survived, but did not thrive because of my setup.
Here is a full view of the tank. The White elbows could easily be replaced by SCH 80 grey elbows. The bottom 2 pictures shows the tank level after backsiphoning...

Also up for sale is a Reef Octopus HOB skimmer, that I used in sump. This skimmer has overflowed so I do not trust it for true HOB utilization. This fit good in sump and with a few mods I think this could be a decent skimmer. If you want the tank , stand and sump, I will throw this in if it’s not sold to someone else.
I am also selling my Current Nova Extreme 4x39" T5 light fixture. This was a good fixture, and I liked the colors and pop it gave to the corals, but is definitely not for SPS. For LPS and softies it is more than adequate. The light is about 6 months old. I also have a Corallife 36" 1x96 Aqualight that I can sell.
I really do not know who much to sell everything for and will consider trades. I really think the tank/sump and stand should stay together, this was a very attractive setup, and went caddy corned between my 2 couches. Another advantage is that if you have tile you can put furniture sliders down you can move the tank/stand to get to the sump.
