Moving Up - A Bigger Tank

[jellyfishjosh]

I have been trapped in a 35 gallon nano tank for about a year. Unfortunately I have an brown glass aptasia problem. I don't have a lot of corals or live rock in this tank so I have decided the easiest way forward is to start over. So after lots of looking I have located what I hope will be a fresh start. I found a seller, who is moving and willing to sell it all to me. I know it is going to be A LOT of work to move. I expect it will take the better part of a day to move it and set it up, but I know it will be worth it. This tank has been carefully assembled and runs extremely well.

110 gallon Oceanic Sapphire glass with corner overflow 48 x 18 x 29
Stand and canopy
250 lbs of live rock and sand - some green hair algae
Fish and corals including a swallow tail angel, midas blenny, watchman goby, mandarin goby, copperband butterfly, clownfish, frogspawn, torch, mushrooms, and more
Reef Octopus skimmer
Truvu custom sump
Eheim pumps
Hydor Koralia Evo 1400's
Industrial temperature controller
Bio pellet and GFO reactors
and LOTS of extras

I am going LED and have already purchased two Rapid LED Onyx units for a very reasonable price from eBay.

I am going to restart the nano tank with some of the new sand and rock so I will have a quarantine tank ready for the swap next month.

Sounds awesome. Got some pics from the seller. Sneak preview?

I'll post pics after the move. This time I am going to pay a co worker to break it down, move it, and set it back up. The tank weighs at least 150 lbs empty. There is 200 lbs of live rock and sand. I ill need to save at least 30-40 gallons. My RODI is going to have a work out filling a 50+ gallon drum for refill. I am going clean some of the gunk that built up in the sand with salt water as well. LOTS OF WORK. I rather not do it, but I really want a new tank.
