Lighting Trade / spare tank maybe

I've got this 4x54w T5 setup I'd like to trade for 2xMH of some kind, thinking of going back to planted tanks and discus, not really sure yet. the link here at the bottom is the fixture in question.

http://www.marinedepot.com/md_viewIt...roduct=CU01122

If I do decide to go freshwater again, I'll probably be selling off all my other equipment as well.

the fixture is in good shape, 2x10k / 2xActinic bulbs. not sure how old the bulbs are. If i sell off the lighting, I'll have LR / aragonite sand / Protein skimmer available. it's an AquaC EV-150, works like a charm with an eheim pump

LR is free to a good home, got some decent pieces.
sand is natures ocean aragonite few months use, ~60 pounds - $50obo
AquaC EV-150 /w Eheim pump - $200
misc SEIO pumps - $15 each
the 4x54W T5 setup - $200
Standard 55G tank with PX Metal stand - $75
29G tank used as a sump, CPR Overflow, Mag 5 return pump/w locline return $100
I've also got ~2L each of Seachem Reef Complete, Reef Calcium, Reef Plus ; 1KG Reef Builder, 1KG Reef Advantage Calcium

~4 frags of zoanthids from PPM, pretty cool lookin, one frag of green with orange centers about 50-70 polyps. the others have about 25 each. make an offer on these, or whoever takes the rock / sand can have them for free.

~4inch squamosa? clam, in great shape. free to whoever takes the rest of the livestock.

I want to get back into discus / planted tanks. I'll consider a trade for some lighting to cover a 36inch tank, preferable 10k MHx2

We decided we wont be going home this summer. If I can get my crap together, I might be interested in some of that stuff. Scratch the light idea...I am thinking about making an Anenome dominant tank and tie it into my current system. Not sure yet though. Going to think about it a little bit. Is there anything wrong with the 29g tank? you put baffles or anything in it?

I would already set that LR aside for Bret (the departed) and possibly the sand as well. im 95% sure he will want it.

Also, there is a real nice freshwater shop in Awase. Head past the mcc$ awase gulf course make a left at the second light, follow it down the hill, it will be on your left at a crosswalk stoplight.

the entire thing is up and running currently, I plan on keeping it that way untill all the livestock is gone, or a total system sale.
the 29G is just fine, not drilled, no leaks, no baffles. it's basically just somewhere to put the protein skimmer for me.

the entire tank is up and running right now. if I get rid of the rock, I need to get rid of the aragonite and the corals / fish as well. Can you take all of them?
