I have two 100 gallon Rubbermaid stock tanks, ideal as sumps or for curing live rock. Several years old but like the Rubbermaid stuff actually made in Ohio, it still looks new, newer than today's foreign stuff looks after a week. :rollface: $40 each

Two skimmers, $25 each one Prizm, one a tall thingie.

Marineland Tidepool I wet/dry filter or sump that can be used just as a sump (fits in a 12" aquarium stand) or you can use it as a wet/dry with a huge biowheel and media trays. Plenty of room either way for the tall thingie skimmer and/or the Prizm. Needs a bulkhead fitting for a connection to a refugium or just to close off that option. Save $100 over new, not counting the filter media, sintered rings and stuff. $40

Fluidized Bed Filter, needs new charge (don't they all) $10

Take all this stuff before our house finally goes up for sale Sunday, and I will make you a deal.

Thanks, James!

I do have someone who is interested in picking up everything, which I'd prefer. I told them $150 for everything, plus I have something extra worth $20 I will include.

I do want to move out some of this stuff before we have home buyers looking, and I put the prices in line with things others have listed here that went right away.

Someone came today and paid full asking price for most of the items. Thanks!

I still have a large very heavy duty plastic sump with two bulkheads, 58" x 45" x 23" high. Because of the rounded corners, I think it is about 200 gallons. $100

A 120 glass tank, drilled left and right back, wood stand and 45 gallon glass tank sump. $250

20 long with metal stand $40

20 high with storebought cabinet stand $35

another 20 high, just the tank $15

10 gallon tank with metal stand and PC light, some equipment $25. I have two of these.

Box of gate valves. $5 each

The free stuff is still here too.

If anyone happens across one of the older (better 100+ gal) rubbermaid containers drop me a note. I am off to TSC to see what they have how much different the new ones are from

oh and I cleaned out some of my old notes in there so I do have some room again sorry for the trouble with that.

Briney Thanks for understanding I had to go with someone who had room for PM's. :D I hate to let it go, but that big 200~gallon sump I still have would be great for a basement sump, even if the tank were "smaller".

PM sent on the 58" x 45" x 23" plastic sump.

Thanks for the PM, Eg! The plastic the big sump is made from is bright blue, not the Rubbermaid stock tank gray. It's an equally sturdy construction but for a different market. There are a couple triangular ribs on each side that reinforce the sides but also helped mix whatever recipe was being stirred in it. It was used in producing frozen foods at a factory on the east side. I used to have three of them, one this size and one that was 90" x 58" x 23". This is the last one left. I added the two bulkhead fittings. Originally they were not drilled. When I got them, they had DIY bulkhead fittings that I did not trust.

The 120 set up is gone. Someone may be by today for the 20L and stand. The 200~ gallon sump and the small tanks are still here.

Everything except for the ten large tank setups are sold. I would only sell all of them or keep them. There is still free glass available and some aragocrete. The aragocrete is well aged (10 months) but the nice pieces have been taken. Unless someone says they want it, it's going to fill a low spot in the yard.
