Checking Intrest

hey guys,

i am thinking of down grading for a while and checking if any one is interested in my system. It is a 55g custom stand & hood. it is drilled and RR. it has 2 175watt MH's with 2 VHO actinics. there are 2 hydor #3's for flow. i am using a 100gallon sump pushed with a little giant pump. custom skimmer, cant remeber the name of it befor i customized it. also there are 2 250watt heaters and a 150 watt heater. there will also be some fish, corals and LR for sale as well. if there is an intrest i will start taking it down after the holidays. let me know. thanks

vince

sorry forgot to mention that there is room under neither to put a 30 gallon sump. i had one under there put it cracked so that is why i set up the 100gallon poly one.

I'll take him too...if you can hold out until I am up and running (which of course depends on you a little )

Although - I am not sure I would want to add a LMB to a new tank...nothing for him to eat. So scratch that...I want him to live.

My school of green chromis would like some more company. The chromii would be welcomed in my house as soon as you want to let them go......If Frank doesn't want the tang I would love to take it off of your hands.

lol... Didn't you just upgrade to the 55?? Reefers are a crazy bunch (I mean that in the best way)! If you part out I might be interested in the LR and some corals. We are going to be getting some money for Christmas, and we are looking to restock our tanks with it.
