I've been in this hobby way too long and have had many tanks but my wife and I recently had our first child and I figure it's about time I take a break from this hobby.
I would like to sell the whole setup together or if there is a commitment to all of the items, I will break it up.
All of the equipment is in excellent condition, the cabinet inside and out is "like new", never had a water spill inside and there are no condensation issues in the cabinet (plus, it's coated inside just in case). This system really makes it look like a piece of high end contemporary furniture instead of an aquarium.
Equipment:
- Elos 70 rimless tank New $900+
- Elos Sump 1000 Filtration System includes: NS1000skimmer, 2 Eheim pumps, heater (I know this filtration is an overkill but I wanted the biggest sump I could fit underneath the cabinet) New $1600
- Elos Suncolor EVO 150W DE MH Lighting System: This is the lighting that can be programmed to change the spectrum of the lighting with 4 glass filters built in) New $3000+
- Custom aluminum 2 piece pole purchased from Elos made to hang the lighting system from one of the short side for a "peninsula style" setup, cost for the pole alone was about $300 but as with all Elos products, very well made and makes the lighting look that much better.
- Custom built cabinet by a cabinet maker with maple veneer, no particle board, dark brown/black in color, black acrylic doors with aluminum trim to match the aluminum of the light pole.
- Spectrapure Litermeter 3 for Top Off Device, New $300
- RK2 controller
- Misc items such as test kits, food, net, 3 Magnavore magnets (one for each side of the tank), B-Ionic, additives, extra bulbs, etc.
Livestock:
- Approx. 50lbs. or live rock, these rocks were picked from many systems I have had and downsized to 50 lbs., no boulders, very porous, all very light and pieces you don't see very often nowadays.
- 8 Rose Anemones
- one XL Green Tree Nepthea, one L Green Tree Nepthea
- small colony of Florida Orange Ricordias
- Large Flourescent Green Wellsophyllia Brain coral
- 2 Large colonies of green branching Frogspawns
- Numerous mushrooms, polyps, etc.
- 3 Clownfish that have been together since they were babies, one large, one medium, and one tiny one (all get along)
- misc. hermits
No expense was spared when I had designed this tank as I figured I would be keeping it for a long time. This is a ready run "turn key" system and I would consider selling the complete setup for $2500 but will also consider offers for breaking this up with the livestock going first before any hardware to be sold. I know it's hard in this economy and I can continue to keep it but figured at this point in my life, this would be a good time to sell if there is even such a thing
If this sells, I'm sure I will be back someday when my son is old enough and we can build another system together 
Roses on rocks cannot be removed and I will consider selling all the livestock in one package to make it easier.
I will upload some current pics later and may edit this post in case there are things I had forgotten about.
Here is a thread with some pics when the tank was first set up:
