I've seen this tank and it's super nice. The Starphire glass is so much nicer/clearer than standard glass tanks. Now if I only had the room for it....

[wishntoboutside]

that is a good deal.. =)

[SkinyChinaMan]

please read my post clearly, it doesn't include the skimmer and livestocks.. I am using them for my new system in the store.. this is only for the equipments.

The tank, stand and canopy alone will cost more then $1500.00 new. you will get the lighting (4 MH, 2 VHO), sump, pump, etc for free.

[lastin1]

Your post stated complete setup. There is also a picture of the skimmer. Nowhere in your descriptions says that the skimmer is not included. I've had two people take a look at the post. Am I missing something?

[SkinyChinaMan]

i am sorry that if i misinformed you, but i dont see anywhere that i say skimmer is included.. either you buy it or not.. this is not a discussion thread.

Mods - if you guys think what i said is wrong or offensive, feel free to pull the thread. gosh.. i am in a cranky mood today..:mad2:

[cxr133]

i have to agree w/lastin one here......


the SUBJECT of the thread says COMPLETE SETUP and nowhere did it say the skimmer was not included.

I would of gotten pretty angry if i came to pick this thing up w/ my 1500 in hand and you started removing things

[SkinyChinaMan]

like i stated, if you like what you see, buy it, and if you dont think its a good deal, dont buy it. otherwise, please leave the comments to yourself.. as for removing things, read my statment above. all i know that you are one of his buddy or something..

[Wilafur]

wow. as with any purchase, before you show up at a person's home with cash don't you always make the seller provide you with a list of items included in the sale?

if not.....i have this orange-ish colored bridge that i can sell you. its located in close proximity to san francisco. ;)

[lastin1]

That's why I pm'd him asking if everything was included. He replied telling me to read the post. I reread it 4 times, and had two people read it as well because I may have missed something.

I haven't met cxr133 yet or ever talked to him before. Funny how you accused us of being in cohort when he agreed with me.

[lastin1]

I liked what I see, but half of what I see isn't included.

[cxr133]

i have also never met lastin1 ..
I am a newbie here and looking for a complete tank setup like the one you are advertising to get me started.

and i was just stating that after reading your post i would of showed up w/ my cash in hand expecting to load the complete system in my truck.. only for you to start removing things.... that would of started a heated debate right there and then.

But thanks for clarifying this for us. guess ill keep looking!!!

[raskal311]

If I walked into a store and ask the sales guy a question and he tells me to read the sign I’d be ****ed no matter how obvious the question was.

[bugsy714]

too funny, some people don't even use skimmers

When I priced this size starphire tank the tank alone was over $1500, I need to rearrange some furniture and do some sweet talking with the Mrs. :D

Maybe if I say it's my Xmas and bday gifts combined.....

[SirLight1337]

thats a beautiful tank. Gotta love the starfire.

good luck with the sale, whoever gets this please post pics when you have it loaded :)

[SkinyChinaMan]

again, i truly appologize for posting a pictures of the full tank setup and not just with what was described for sale. and wilbur, i thought i listed everyhing already.. what are you talking about?

[Wilafur]

my comment was directed at buyers not the seller.

[SkinyChinaMan]

hahaha.. that was what i though wilbur, just want to make sure.. thanks bro

[glaudds]

Gee, when I first read this post it seemed perfectly clear what was included....nowhere in the initial post said a skimmer was included.

[dymaxiun]

I'll take the skimmer!!!!! :lol: j/k

Nice tank to whomever picks it up!!!

[bugsy714]

I agree completely,
That's if they can get the special glass, when I tried to order one they couldn't find the glass for two months! Finally gave up and went acrylic which is nice but a serious PITA to clean.

That's what starphire is so nice: acrylic clear but you can clean it with a magnet :D One day...

haha.. you can come in my store and i will ask you to read the signs.. i wanna see how %^#$ you will be.. wait.. i dont have prices on my tanks..hahah.. again. i dont think you will ever come:D

this would be a dream tank for most reefers.. starphire.. wooo:cool:

[bennyinca]

Nowhere in there it says WYSIWYG. The description lists the items for sale.

Can't be too hard unless you don't read :D

yes it is a dream tank and if it wasnt so tall I would have made you an offer on it myself but thats not the point now is it.

[SkinyChinaMan]

yes kevin, that is not the point now.. so lets just leave it at that.. this is my sale thread.. so please.. be curtious and move on

[birdman204]

I agree with the people re: the skimmer not being "complete".... BUT.. and this is a big ole butt....
It's an ASM, you can pick one up for next to nothing.... Slap that and a pump on , and you've got a nice system for less than 2G's....

Anyways, on to my Question... Canopy height? and how many fan holes? What is the rear sump access like, Is there a cross brace similar to the front ?
TYIA

[SkinyChinaMan]

birdman, canopy height is approx. 10-12", there are 2 fan holes and 2 fans blowing out toward the back, rear sump access is wide open.. no center brace like the front.

as for the comment of not being complete.. how does a skimmer ever translate to a complete system? i think the people who will cry over a skimmer and thinking that without it, its not a complete system needs more reading to do. I have done plenty of tank skimmerless...oh.. BTW, that is a ER 8-2 and not ASM. oh and for those who wants a "complete"system.. you can have all the things you see in the picture including skimmer, 150lbs marshall islnad LR for a total of $2300.00

[jeffreylam1132]

Nice tank, Anthony and great price. Boy, I wish I have the space to put this beautiful tank in my new home. Hm.....................

[jeffreylam1132]

BTW, the crocea clam I've bought from you was so nice and healthy. But when I was gone for a whole week for work and came back home, it was a very sad day for me, because my beautiful clam was gone. Right now, I'm in the process of moving and currently have no tank. But once I settle in, I will definitely hit you up again for few of those beautiful crocea clams.

[bugsy714]

Just got back from checking it out in person, oh baby it is nice!

The 30" tall panel is incredible, I didn't think I'd like it at first but when you see it in person it makes perfect sense, it's like a widescreen :D

That stand/canopy is beautiful, super nice whitewashed oak, it would look soooooo good in my living....oh man the pain...I need to start begging Jen, maybe she'll give in to repetition...

[birdman204]

12 inch canopy, 10 inch light height?

[lastin1]

If that's the case, why don't you just exclude everything but the tank? You don't "need" a stand, put it on the floor. You don't "need" a canopy. You don't "need" anything but the tank to hold water. I simply asked if everything in the picture is included. A simple no, livestock and skimmer is not included would be fine. Instead, you said to read the posts, insinuating that I can't read. And then you go on attacking everyone that agrees with me. No matter how great the deal is, I wouldn't do business with someone that is rude.

I thought this was not a discussion thread? I guess it is, if you say nice things about it. You can go on and on and on. Hey Charles, start selling some of them nice micros and you'll have the money to get that tank. Lastin1, you're too late man, bugsy714 is ready to buy.

I didn't know that you don't need a skimmer to run a reef system.
in that case, i should remove my skimmer.

The money isn't the issue, just the lack of space for another tank, hehe if you saw my "kitchen" you'd understand what I mean....Thought my post would be helpful Vu, I suppose that is the difference between unwanted discussions posts & wanted discussion posts

Can't even shop for a tank without drama...Geez...that's a real bummer

Got a picture of the kitchen? I just had my kitchen remodeled, boy it's a pain the the you know what. Anyway, I'm not taking advantage of the discussion, but it sucks to see some people being so arrogant and rude to fellow reefers. I call it as I see it.

[bugsy714]

hehe kitchen table was banished to the garage years ago...it's a tight squeeze. I'm afraid of having a tank over my carpet so everything reef is confined to the tile for now, over 350 gallons in both systems :D

Yes, I am a gear junkie/pvc addict, I've come to this realization, that's why any new gear is a tough sell with the Mrs. :rollface:

[vpham24]

Damn Charles, I bet the Mrs. own the 300g and you own the 50g. :lol:

[fc.pride]

nice tank...bump for anthony. :cool:

[vpham24]

OK, bump back at you too.

[Old Yeller Tang]

Whoah! Leemar with starphire glass!

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

One reason I don't own one. Us poor folk have to settle for whatever PetSmart has available.lol

This is quite the deal! I'd consider if the phosban reactor is included!:D

I totally agree with you man.. i never beg for your business.. I really want to know how many people here on this board actually think i am rude. I have been in this hobby for so long now and never once i have been told that i was rude. lol. Anyhow, as i stated before, I would appologize if i offended you in anyways. ~happy reefin'

Nice tank man, but I want a skimmer to go with that since I don't use one right now. :lol:

OK, one last post, good luck with the sale.

How does a vendor become a non-vendor on this forum?

[SkinyChinaMan]

no problem Vu, thank you for the meaningful comments...this is a beautiful tank and it would definitly look nice in someones home that would have the proper time to take good care of it. because of my lack of time and care, I lost every coral in that tank except for the frogspawn and a couple ricordias T_T.

SaltyDDS - its because i am selling my personal tank and not some new tanks i bought from the manufacturers.

Amen, wouldn't 30 wide be perfect :D

[phatphisher]

initial post indicates euro braced but it also says that it has center brace? please clarify as i may be interested if it is trully euro braced.

[Konadog]

Originally posted by phatphisher

It sounds like both, but the center brace is only 4"(probably the same width as the euro brace), not the usual 12" to 15" brace. I just re-read the first post but Anthony should answer this himself.

[gtrestoration]

Heck of a deal. I have a starfire front only I've thought about selling that still sits on the pallet wrapped up. I'd want nearly the same amount for it... tank only. I know I'll never get it so I just keep it for later on when I get crazy and want to setup a tank at home again.

Good price for someone that wants a big tank. Good luck SCM.

[bergzy]

that is a freakin' awesome price!

man, lessee where i can put it....

dang, no where...otherwise i would have snatched it up in a heartbeat!

I think sr71 is getting it, he's one lucky SOB :D

hmmm,

i know...a few 2x4's along with a couple of planks will make an awesome buffet around the tank that doubles as a kitchen table center piece!!!

what an idea!!!

too bad that would never fly with the mrs.

but...

after all, i have to give her credit for it was her idea to renovate the house to fit my current 180g and have all the equipment (as loud as a train) be remotely located adjacently in the garage.

[tigerarmy40]

its crazy how poluted the selling form has become with all these people that have no intentions of buying but just point out stupid little things and relally take the joy out of shoppingand selling here! I think the mods should get more involved in these types of posts.....
