Time for my 100g reef to go

[jlfnjlf]

OK so I am starting to neglect my reef so it is time for me to let it go.

The tank is 100g
The sump is 55g
Lighting consists of 2 250W Icacap ballasts for MH
2 Icacap ballasts running 4 60" t5 bulbs
AquaController 3 with 2 8 outlet controllable plug-bars and the expansion block
Chiller is 1/4 aquaLogic drop in type
Calcium reactor is a MARS DIY with CO2 tank and regulator
CL pump is a Reeflo/Sequence Marlin with a Oceans Motions 4 way
Sump return pump is a Pan World
I built the stand and canopy in clear pine with a cherry finish
I have a lot of coral and fish most of which I saw them in the store and said that is cool I think I'll put it in my tank. I do not have the names of much, but I do know I have a large patch of tubs blues going on and several other colorful zoas.

I am sure there is much more I neglected to list but this the start. First pass I would like to sell the entire system for $1000. If I do not get any interest in a week or two I will start parting it out. All live stock must find new homes before I will pull any hardware.

I have attached an older photo of the system.

Thank you,

John

You will be missed, you were truly one of the nicer guys in the hobby and it was a pleasure to have you in the club. Best wishes in all your future endeavors.

Any interest helping me get it out of his house and/or into my house on Saturday?

 

[D&KSac]

I may be able to give you a hand Pete. Great deal!

 

[cameron reef]

ill be 3rd dibs if not sold.

 

[P.Kelly]

Sold, paid half today. Looking forward to a tank all for my SPS... Dang you reef bug, I swore I wouldn't get the SPS bug...

Oh well, better to give in now and resign myself to a life of financial woes than to fight it.

 

[Doahh]

Pete- Gonna frag those tubs blues soon?

 

[P.Kelly]

I'm going to be setting up this tank, as is at my house for now. I'm sure I'll be giving away a few things to those that help. I'd love to flood the market with Tubs Blues, taking a page from Minh. I'll be bringing some to the frag swap for sure.

Hey John,

Sorry to see you taking a break... I remember helping get that system set up in your place. Lots of smart thinking went into the design, so Pete, you are getting a fabulous deal. The lighting alone was really cool on the sliders. If ya need a hand, I can probably come swing by to help you tear it down and set it up this weekend. I have a wee bit of experience in the 'art.'

 

[MrMikeB]

Oh and I have a truck if you need it - just ask you help feed that beast. Its seen more saltwater than most of our tanks will ever see in their lifetime. :lol:

 

[kevin95695]

what time is this going down pete?

 

[P.Kelly]

I'm meeting John at his place at 1pm on Saturday. Free frags to all that help, as well as Pizza and beer on the other end to those that can help.

 

[D&KSac]

Im in to help Pete already told the wife i was gonna.

 

[P.Kelly]

Awesome David, I appreciate it. I'll get in touch tomorrow or Thursday to work out the details.

 

[bladeruner143]

hey Pete Id love to help also but my parents are coming up this weekend and I dont really think theyd enjoy taking a tank down and putting it back together! Looks like you got a really good deal though!
