Looks like I will need to part the tank out. All livestock needs to go before I take down the tank. The first $2,700 takes the entire setup listed, and livestock. Please post in the thread what you want, not as PM, easier to track who wants what that way.

1 Purple Tang - $60
1 Tomini Tang - $30
Yellow Watchman Goby - $10
Maroon Clown - $10
2 YT Damsels - I like these fish, never had any aggression from them, free to good home
110 pounds of Marco rock. $80 for all. It goes all at once, or I will save for future tanks.
Snails and crabs free to whoever buys the rock or fish

Ocea 110 (euro-braced) with stand and canopy (18" tall inside canopy) & 30 gallon sump, plumbing, fans, dark cherry stain, dual rear overflows and returns - $650
2 MP40w's - $220 each, $400 for both

Yes, MP40w's are gen2. The wet sides are about 6 months old, the rest I'm not sure, I got them used off RC - less than 2 years, I believe. They run great though.

Tank is 60 long x 18 wide x 21 tall.

I would love the tank, cabinet, sand, live rock, lighting, and filtration. I don't need any livestock....I have very few SPS but would like to have the metal halides. I am on a budget. How much for a complete running "empty" system?

Do you want the MP40's as well?

If not, for all 3 halides + bulbs + ballasts, tank, stand, canopy, sump, return pump, skimmer, sand, rock, etc. I could do $1,550. Everything you need to get the tank up and running.

And that's a steal! I know what he has in that tank and it is like brand new.
Good luck with the SALE

Bill:beer:
Thanks man! Appreciate it.

I'm more than open about what I have in my tank, and $1,550 is about as low as I can go. I'm taking a $1,000 hit on this stuff alone by selling it. I don't buy crap equipment and I'm not selling it as such.

I paid:
$800 for the tank / stand canopy
$485 for the skimmer
$150 in assorted plumbing parts
$120 for sand
$150 for rock
$105 per ballast
$350 for the halides
$150 for bulbs
$80 for the return pump

ameares8
08/05/2010, 10:53 AM
If he realllllllly loves you, he will let you have it :D. Just kidding. I was surprised my wife actually agreed to put mine in the living room without begging lol. Marriage is a compromise, tell him you will name the first fish you put in the tank after him and see how that goes over.

That is not a problem, I can hold the tank for 2 weeks while I part out the rest of the equipment.

Jennifier615
08/05/2010, 11:41 AM
So, If I come give you 1000 you will hold the tank for two weeks till I pay off the last 500, and bill will transport it for me for the price of fuel? Chris is scheduled to be in Pennsylvania on aug 12th so I will no longer have a truck/muscle to move whatever I buy. I dont want to pay for something that I cant move/get.

I'm sure we can get a few people to get it off my truck and Into your Garage, As long as that suits your needs were good.

I would have no problem with that. We will need to set a firm date to move the tank and payoff, as I travel and need to be available.

Thank you for helping Bill! The tank and equipment are not terribly heavy, a couple guys can move it with no problem. :)

How old are the MP40w? I am interested.

You were first in line, they are a couple years old, wetsides are 6 months or so. Let me know when you get a chance.


Interested in MP40w's too, put me 2nd in line. Yes, how old? Are they GEN 2?

What are the dimensions of the tank?

If Pelagic7 does not want them, they're yours.

are the MP40's still up for sale? I am in Nashville next week and could jump down to spring hill. But I guess I am 3rd in line eh?

Third in line :) Hopefully I get confirmation soon.

08/05/2010, 01:21 PM
I am buying a tank closer to me more in my price range. If you still got them I will take your sand and liverock. You said 80 for the liverock I will take it all and how much more for the sand.

yea, I would so try to weasel anthony out of the deal but im getting that naso and Sohal from alabama, so I dont think that purple would fit in with the two larger fish. but it would be funny if I were to buy him back. a truly awesome fish.

on a side note, ive got some good filamentous algae growth on the rocks in the tank ready for those tangs to get here saturday.

HAHA. sadly bill, I dont be buying it back at the moment. my funds were pretty well depleated in getting the 180 up and running and im not really allowed to get much of anything until i sell the 225. the two tangs are about the best I can do for now.

you will love that fish. Lots of personality and it was extremely fat when I sold it. No evidence of HLLE at all. Ive never had any issues with that. The only reason I would want it back is that they are rarely seen in the LFS around here. It is one of the only ones around the club that I know of. you enjoy it!!

Yea, I remember they used to have them very frequently. Wonder why they stopped carrying them.

Thanks for helping :dance:

The fans are exhaust fans, they pull any hot air out of the canopy. My tank struggles to stay at 76-77 with a 250w heater. The heater ran most of the time. After the halides kicked on the tank would reach 77 after they ran 4-5 hours.
