saktown Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I have recently taken down my 125 gallon TruVu system that was setup as a reef tank since July '08. The tank is 6' long, which is great for fish that need lots of swimming room. The stand and hood are cherry and are in good condition overall. The sump is built into the stand and it's about 20g. Also included is a return pump and lighting system. The lighting consists of 4x54w T5HO and 2x110w VHO running on a PFO ballast and a workhorse ballast. The lighing could be modified to include a couple metal halides pretty easily. The system does not include a refugium, but one could be added with some plumbing modifications (which I could do if you wanted). This system is ideal for someone who wants to setup a large reef tank because of the lighting, but could still suit a fish only system perfectly well. I will be leaving town for almost 2 months, starting Tuesday morning, so either the tank must be sold by then or it will have to sit in my basement until I get back. Feel free to call or email me with questions. Jonathan 707.758.6693 sakkos09@gmail.com For some reason, I can't get my photos to show up properly. I have them here, though: http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/for/1172281142.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mister crabs Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 dimensions? condition of acrylic...i.e. any scratches? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saktown Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 I think it is 6'x18"x20" if I'm not mistaken. The acrylic is in fair/good condition with a normal amount of scratches for a decently used tank. Nothing major. I moved recently and that picture is from after I took it down at my old house. It is in the garage in storage currently. In the picture, there is a little bit of coralline on the top and some type of smears on the outside. Those are not scratches, it was just a little dirty.

saktown Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 heh. I think I'm alright on tattoos right now. I'm really surprised there has been so little interest in this tank. The stand and hood are beautiful cherry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tertansin2 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I know someone who is interested in your tank. The guys at Westside Aquarium has a client looking for that exact tank. I mentioned to him about your tank but I didn't know if it was still for sale. You should give him a call really nice guy. Ask for Tim and tell him you have a 125 for sale 503-473-4911. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClayTheSavageFraser Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Yeah, with the crazy economy and the amount of people that think they can hang with a reef and then finding out they cant and dumping all thier stuff for real cheap, it's hard to sell some thing for any money. I wish I could help!! Clay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA2OR Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 I would snag this in a heart beat if I could afford it. I desperately need to upgrade tanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saktown Posted August 31, 2009 Author Share Posted August 31, 2009 I would like to sell it as a complete setup. I think I'm going to buff it to perfection this weekend. I've never buffed a tank with a drill attachment before, though. Anyone have advice on that? I don't have the buffer yet, just some novus 1,2,3. Mainly, I'm not sure where to get the buffing wheel and which type to get. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
