getting rid of a killer tank real cheap to

cutsupremetrib · #1 02/13/2006, 12:33 AM

figured Id go ahead and post this it all has to be gone by the 28th I would like to sell it all at one time but i dont know if i will be able to just so y'all know I live in Lafayette IN and am very reasonable... IM selling my 65 reef stand tank lights livestock all included for a really great price IMO

heres a stock list...

65 gallon marineland tank with oak trim in a golden color
matching stand
matching canopy
canopy houses a 6 inch fan which moves plenty of air to maintain tank temp
this canopy houses a 400 watt MH bulb alongside a 192 watt coralife type fixture the coralife was dissasembled to fit into the canopy total wattage 592 watts this tank was setup to support SPS corals and has done so very well

doors on the front for very easy access the canopy itself is around 30 inches tall because IM a tall person and wanted to be able to cover the whole tank with the lighting the tank itself has one tiny scratch that is very difficult to see without pointing it out

next is filtration
for flow I use two different powerheads I have a powerhead 402 not sure of the namebrand but it puts out alot of flow also i have another one im not sure on the name

i have a nice sump setup overflow system included with filter and 2 inch hosin to the sump the sump is a 12 gallon jbj nanocube and serves also as my refugium this is really a pretty cool setup
the jbj is only a couple of months old the overflow is made by proclear to give you an idea of what it looks like

i also have a marineland biowheel filter that runs on the side of the main tank

for the return from the sump is a CAP2200 return pump this sucker really moves the water LOL

as for livestock I'll try to do my best on listing everything

FISH are as follows

small orange shoulder tang hes the prettiest one Ive ever seen and is very active and eats algae all day long

i also have a yellow tang which is full grown and has been in the tank for almost 2 years now he is also a very healthy eater

I have a mated pair of clowns that lay eggs so much at least once every two weeks I paid over 200 bucks for this pair and they are really stunning someone who knew how to breed these guys and harvest the eggs could make a fortune

one large 4 stripe damsel hes georgous and over 3 years old very good eater and peaceful for his species

one large male lyretail anthia who is healthy and eats and is stunning in color

also i have a pair of orange longfin mollies that are in my reef and are adapted to saltwater living this is a mated pair

thats It for fishies

as for corals where do i start I'll try my best these are all handpicks nothing in my tank was shipped to me it was all bought at either aquarium world or Inland aquatics

I have a purple tip acro about 4 inches long

staghorn type coral which is huge and redish with green polyps

green hydnophora

pink birdsnest

zoos orange and green with blue centers

a goniopora who is very pretty and healthy gree tips with brownis innards eats like a monster

encrusing gorgo two different varieties one is large and pink and the other is purple and branching

I have anthelia which is very fast at growing

a wierd colored froggy

large brown monti cap and frags

another encrusting purple colored monti

thats about it for corals most are smaller but very pretty well over 1 grand in corals alone....

rock i have around 150 pounds I would say easy some figi some base rock and some very rare home made live rock made of an orange colored desert stone this rock will not leach anything into the water and has been in my tanks since i started... wonderful coverings in purples and pinks corallines and different types of corals covering them also have sponges creaping out Ive seen bristles the good fireworms all kinds of neat lil goodies

substrate is an aragonite based rock

I forgot one fish I have a pretty diamond bar goby who is always out in the open

tons of blue leg hermits

as for additives

2 part kent marine calcium
kent marine zooplex
combovital
coral vital
biotrace
iodine
some oceanic salt
some instant ocean salt
other misc stuff

Im moving to Florida is why im getting out none of this stuff is bad stuff and all is georgous I hate to get out but dont want to chance the move maybe when i get selted some of u nice folks will help me out with frags like i said Id love to sell it all in one chop to someone who is very lucky there is well over 3 grand invested here Im selling it all for $900.00 OBO if you need help when u buy it I have a vehicle to help move it and would be willing to take a day to help you please serious inquires only

Hey, I am very very interested in this. I live in Fort Wayne and went to Purdue for 2 years and am currently looking for a new tank! Let me look at my finances a little closer and see what the lady says but this is a great deal and if my tax refund is what I hope I think we could have a deal if you still have it in a day or two.

cutsupremetrib · #13 02/13/2006, 10:49 PM
