My 75 gallon tank system is up for sale. For those that know me, you know a lot of design and planning went into this setup and it produced a beautiful tank. I was going to wait until fall to put it up for sale, but I wanted to make sure that if someone was looking to get in the hobby, that they knew that I had it for sale. I'm not in a real hurry to sell it since I have so much other stuff going on (moving) but let me know if you are interested and spread the word if you don't mind.

Included for sale is:

- 75 Gallon Tank...drilled for (2) 1" bulkhead drains and (1) 1.5" drilled bulkhead for a closed loop.

- Custom stand / canopy made by a woodworker in Texas. Feeder door on the right side, full flip up top to access lights and for maintenance on the tank. Custom spray gun painted black by a friend of mine and coated with polyurethane for protection. Epoxy painted on the inside of the canopy. This is a solid, very nice stand and canopy...it wasn't just thrown together.

- Ballast box on canopy with electrical plugins so that you can easily detach the canopy from the tank. (my design) All cords, plugs, etc are included.

- 25 gallon custom made acrylic split sump designed me on CAD...features a refugium, a holder in the flow path to place carbon, etc...and plenty of room for a nice sized skimmer. Adjustable flow rate in the skimmer and fuge sections.

- (2) PanWorld pumps. 100PX pressure rated (600GPH at 4 ft head) for the sump, and 100PX-X (1200GPH at 4 ft head) for the closed loop. The pumps have been used for 1 year..but anyone who knows about PanWorld pumps knows that they will last for a long long time.

- All piping / Plumbing is included. (2) 1" drains to the sump, 1.5" piping to the closed loop pump, Unions, valves for easy shutoff, assembly, and pump removal, valves to control fuge and skimmer sections independently, Closed loop manifold system with 6 outlets (ala Anthony Calfo), closed loop pump stand, strainers, etc. All styrofoam for the tank and sump is included too.

- 8 Switch Lighted Switch Panel with plugins on the back to easily control components with custom made attachment so it fits perfectly inside the front cabinet door.

I have over $1600 invested in this part of my system and would like to sell as a package. I will take $1000 for all of it.

Thanks...It took me 3 months to research and design it all. A lot of hard work!

Here is picture of the ballast box.

Does it have lights and skimmer with it?

No lights or skimmer; it comes with what I've listed above. I've sold most of my other components already (skimmer, Reefkeeper 2, calcium reactor, fans, etc.). I almost kept the 175W halides on but lighting is such a personal preference...most want to go with 250W or VHOs even though its not necessary, so I went ahead and decided to sell the tank, stand, pumps and plumbing all as one and sell the other stuff separately. I'm not sure it was the right decision, but it was the one that I made.

I'll vouch for Cody...he did a lot of research and worked very hard on this setup (he is an engineer afterall) and it did produce a beautiful and healthy tank. I tanksat for him several times and never had to do a thing, lol...it took care of itself. Whoever eventually ends up with it won't be disappointed.
