I'm selling my complete setup. I have moved and do not have room for this large of a tank in my new loft.

Everything in this setup is only 6 months old, and everything is in perfect shape.

This is exactly whats included with the package...

Drilled 40 breeder tank with custom built in durso overflow and two return feeds and black painted background.

Custom built hood that sits flush and even on the tank (just needs to be wrapped in acrylic to match stand, havent gotten around to it)

LIGHTING: has all THREE stages...

Lumenarc Mini reflector
14k Hamilton 175W SE bulb - only 6 months old, plenty of life
Icecap 175W Ballast
2 - 36" T5's for actinics - bulbs - 1 blue, 1 purple
2 sets of moon lights

Custom built stand wrapped in black acrylic for a very sleek, modern look. I just need to add doors to it.

The stand has 2 shelves for storage and also comes with a 15 gallon fuge/sump. - fuge has sand and i have extra live rock.

mag 9.5 return pump

A 3 stage ATO with solenoid valve for your RO/DI machine - 2 float switches and a timer on it

4 stage RO/DI machine with all BRAND NEW media.

3' piece of Blue Pearl Granite for the tank to sit on and it "trims" everything out.

Also has the American DJ switch for ease of use with all new outlets for each individual plug and timers for the lights.

I will get more detailed pictures for serious buyers.

I want $1200 for everything.

The granite alone would cost you $450 and the lighting costs $500.

Everything is only 6 months old and all in perfect shape. I really hate to get rid of this as it was such a custom job done by myself, it was everything i wanted and is a very unique tank. But just too big for my new living situation.

It's such a custom job, this tank has to go all together, there is no sense in pieceing it apart.

Everything is ready to go. Just transport, plug in, fill with water and enjoy.

There is the plastic covering on the acrylic on this picture still... so it looks much much more sleek and modern.

before i wrapped it in the black acrylic... you can see its very well built...

This is another early shot and doesnt have all the stuff plugged in with the timers yet... but you can see its also a very clean, easy to use setup.

I tried setting this up as flawless and easy to maintain as possible. The only thing you really have to do is feed your fish every day and do a water change every 2-3 weeks. thats it.

And my next step was to add a auto-feeder on.

it looks nice and i'm sure you put alot of work into it, but you are asking too much in my opinion. sure the lighting cost $500 new but its used, and not too many people care about the cost of the granite because its just a stand that my or may not look pretty. and the hood outsides are not pretty enough for most people to put in their houses so the need for DIY hurts
 
Yeah i am to the point that i am just going to piece and part it off anyways. I am taking a huge loss on it, but ill be able to get rid of the granite on craigslist.

Once i figure what i want for the things individually i will update.

And the hood is just unfinished, all i have to do is wrap it in acrylic. Thats the easy part.

I compeltly disagree with this comment .... seems kind of negative ... he is trying to sell this tank .... and you are talking about how bad it is ...

I think if your not buying why comment.

because i'm trying to help the guy sell his tank, if he just finished the top then its more likely to sell. this isn't the selling forums, i'm allowed to comment on the quality. people don't like to buy full set ups and they sure don't like to buy unfininished setups. the tanks not bad, its just not worth (to most people) what he's asking. and the value could be increased if he'd just finnish it, instad of expecting the buyer to want to do so.

i hope the OP didn't take any offence to my old post
 
I need to dump all of the stuff listed below quickly. Instead of money I will take frags.

Let me know what you have and what you would be interested in.

Thanks.
