BADBaxter Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Great deal for someone to purchase just the live rock and sand. Thanks, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADBaxter Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 This is an excellent deal for someone wanting to get into the reef/coral hobby. I have been keeping this tank alive for the last 4 years with the intent of getting back in the hobby. Unfortunately, where I live now the power will go out for a couple of weeks at a time, I go through 2 sets of RO/DI filters a year (terrible well water) and I do not have the time to maintain. This tank was sold to me as a 90 gallon tank. However, the measurements suggest a 75 gallon tank. The tank is drilled with a 2" overflow. It has a glass 29 gallon sump. It includes the light hood with 2 spider light reflectors with 2 - 250W icecap halides. 2-VHO Actinic and the stand. It also includes the protein skimmer, D & D "Beast". The stand needs some work from some water damage (cosmetic) and one of the Icecap ballasts is not working, about $65 to repair the ballast. There is about 150 lbs (more like 200+ lbs) of live rock and 100 lbs of live sand. As you can see from the photos, maintenance is needed. However, the rock has a lot of sponges and tube worms. I am about 15 minutes from Albany and 20 minutes from Corvallis. This is a complete unit. I am including 2 UV sterilizers (need new bulbs) and all of my miscellaneous reef equipment, pumps, spare bulbs (used), etc. I feel that $400.00 is a fair price for everything. Live rock at $3.00 a pound would cost more than the whole unit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADBaxter Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share Posted June 11, 2011 Tank is also drilled with a 1 1/2" overflow! Tank is also drilled with a 1 1/2" overflow. I have it "cocked" to lower the water level in the tank. Took out the skimmer to clean it. The little tube worms are everywhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADBaxter Posted June 29, 2011 Author Share Posted June 29, 2011 Rock and sand $250. That is less than $1.75 / lb for the rock. Take it all. That way I can shut down the tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
