Moving, 10G and 20G FS

[WarEagleNR88]

Hey all, I have orders to move to Utah at the end of this month and I am not going to be taking my two small tanks with me. The chance of deployment will be increasing significantly after my move and having a tank then is not what I want.

The 10G is mostly macroalgae and zoanthids. It has 1 small clownfish, a neon goby, a Randall's goby paired with a Candy stripe pistol shrimp, and a Barnacle blenny. You can check out the build of it here. This tank came in 3rd place in the Nano-reef.com 2006 10G stock competition. The pictures are from its peak. Right now the tank needs a new home and an enthusiastic owner. Issues with it, maintenance and a leak. You will need to get a new tank and transplant everything over carefully before fully setting it up. The tank has sprung a leak somewhere in the top 1/3 of the seam and won't hold water above it. However being a 10G, I'm not concerned with it splitting apart the moment.

The other tank is slightly larger--a 20G long with built in glass overflow and 10G sump. Again this tank is mostly softies--zoanthids, ricordeas, etc. It has a yellow-belly blue damsel, I think Azure or Kupang Damsel (who knows these things?), and a 2+ yr old Gold striped Maroon clownfish. The tank has about 1/2 to 3/4" of crushed coral substrate with about 20 pounds of live rock. The sump is a 10G glass aquarium that I have partitioned to hold a ASM G1X protein skimmer with recirc mod and gate valve mod. Return is a Magdrive 3. Two pumps included, Seio 620s--plenty of circulation for this aquarium. The flow through the sump is around 70-80 gph. Lighting is a 1x65W PC combo bulb that needs replaced. This aquarium sits on a custom aquarium stand designed and built by me. It is made of 2x4s, 1/4" plywood, trim, and is stained a dark cherry. The door to the stand breaks away using magnets to sit aside for maintenance underneath. The canopy has an open back and two break away magnet doors side by side on the front. The stand is about 34" tall (perfect viewing height IMO) and takes up about 36"x18" floor space. Issues with this aquarium, maintenance and Aiptasia. Somehow the Aips got in and I'm not sure what to do. This guy needs a new home and can be made beautiful with minimal work once you get the Aiptasia under control.

Both these tanks are quiet and do very well the way they are. The 20G has a slight hum and if you keep the water topped off in the 10G, you can hear just a slight trickle. If able, I would like to keep each tank together as a whole--lights, filter, heater, live rock, substrate, and animals--so please keep that in mind. Please feel free to pm me with an offer. Thanks for reading and helping a fellow reefer out.
