55G tank for free, with a catch.

OK so I got this 55G to help a friend but I no longer need it. I swapped out the lighting and put in a 4x54W setup, its pretty darn bright. Icecap SLS reflectors. A couple pix are below, its pretty basic and needs a little cleaning but a pretty nice setup. Black back, overflow, sump, stand/canopy.

The tank/stand/canopy are free but I have a couple hundred into lighting. If someone wants the whole thing, with Icecap reflectors & Giesemann/ATI bulbs I'd sell the entire thing for $150. The sump is drilled to run an external pump but I put a temporary seal on the holes and just run a small submersible return pump.

Here are a couple pix -





So basically $150 for the tank/stand/sump/premium lighting and all plumbing to the overflow.

If you buy it and want the Tunze 9010 skimmer you can have it for $200 - so $350 for the entire thing.

Thanks,

David

No PM sent....just an idea.

Some peeps in FRAG have been wanting, to give back, so to speak, to the community outside of FRAG. A suggestion was made about a display tank (prolly fish only) to be step up at a retirement community or something like that. The tank would then be maintained by the peeps of FRAG.

A way to share our hobby with others.

This tank could be a great start in making that happen.

Sorry forgot to update - this is pending to a local member. I received a TON of PM's, but I found someone who wanted the whole setup and the Tunze 9010 for $300.

KK thats an awesome idea. This tank wouldn't really be good as a FO, the lighting was way too bright. I think a bigger tank would be better for that anyway - like an 80 or 125. If FRAG/PROP decides to that, I'd love to help! I'm sure between all the reefer's closets we'd have enough to get that going with pretty decent equipment.
