Regretably I'm going to sell my tank. This pains me tremendously but I just can't devote the time to the tank to enjoy it. Not that it requires any maintenance, I'm just so busy with travel, kid, hot rod, and life that something has to give so...

Please check my gallery for basic pics. I will include EVERYTHING and a ton of spare items.
180g all glass tank, 24g mangrove tank, welded steel stand, custom built oak cabinet (both), outdoor cabinet housing a kalk drip container and doser, 1/2 hp very custom chiller, Iwaki 100 pump, Dolphin pump(for chiller loop), Milwaukee electronic controllers, electronic temp controller, custom glass sump, two 40 watt ASM uv sterilizers, custom calcium reactor, Iwaki return pump, ASM G-4X skimmer, 3 400w 20k halides with real ballasts, a ton of extra fittings, 200 lbs of extra rock, 400 gallon outdoor saltwater storage container with base stand and r/o system to fill with, ladder to get to the top of the thing. All my aquarium books too which is a lot!

I don't have stonies anymore, just 14 rose anemones, couple other anemones, (all are several years old), fish that I've had for over 10 years, and lots of other cool inhabitants. I'll post a recent inside pic tonight.

This will be a project to move but I will help you and can even get you a discount on a truck.

$5,500

Bump for an RC veteran. One of the earliest examples of a Lumenarc III install. Heck, I think they are the orignial DiamondLight brand. :)


It's this tank I believe.

Bump for great person.

I bought his 400g setup 1 1/2 years ago and remember the 180. Awsome guy to deal with and awsome tank. Well worth the asking price.

Hate to see you get out but I'm sure you have your reasons. I'd buy it if I had the room. Good luck.

It is still a great looking set up. So it is worth a bump or more...

Yep, seen you around before. bump from me. Sad to see the tank go. I hope the cold turkey won't be so bad.

We're in San Dimas by Raging Waters. I'm sure I'll recover once the tanks leaves, of course I'm sure I'll freak out without the constant hum of the pumps!

So what's a fair price on 6-8" Rose Anemones that are tank acclimated and love to split every couple months? Oh ya, and attached to a live rock. thanks

Had it made. I'm going to part this out. Start with the live stuff first. All tank inhabitants for $500! I will monitor my PMs.

Man, sorry to hear you have to get rid of it, but priorities are priorities! That set up is one of the tanks that made me want to sign up for RC....one of the cleanest, aesthetically appealing furnishings of a reef tank IMO.....good luck!

Thanks snaps! Unfortunately gang I can't PM and e-mail everyone when I do this as that would be over 25 people! I'll put "Margaritaman" in the title so folks can search for that which should make it a bit easier.

thanks
