WTS 500g aquarium system and livestock - moving sale!


Scotia

Recommended Posts

Location: Duvall, WA (Seattle/Redmond area)

Hi folks!  My life has hit some serious potholes and the net result is that I'm moving out of my house -- and I can't take my ~500g dream system with me.  This is one of those times where my loss can hopefully be something positive for you.  The system and everything related is for sale, bulk discounts for large purchases are available.  No copper has ever been used on or in any of the equipment.

Note: For the livestock's well-being, all livestock must be out of the tank before the equipment can be taken.  (Obviously. :) )  I'll update this post once equipment is ready to move.

Livestock:

2 x Yellow Tangs ($50 each)
1 x Tomini Tang ($50)
1 x Blue Eyed Kole Tang ($60)
1 x Pearly (Yellowhead) Jawfish ($20)
1 x Lemonpeel Dwarf Angelfish ($50)
1 x Red Cardinalfish ($35)
2 x Percula Clownfish, dark morphs ($20 each)
2 x Yellow Coris (Wrasse) ($30 each)
~5 x Short-spine Urchins ($10 each – note: not acrylic safe)
1 x Redfin (Dwarf Rooster) Waspfish named "Picante" (looking for long-term foster home*)
1 x Dwarf Yellow Eel named "Elle" (looking for long-term foster home*)
1 x Yellow Tilefish named "Banana" (quite tame, looking for long-term foster home*)

2 x Red Bubbletip Anemone ($50 each)
1 x Green Bubbletip Anemone ($50)
1 x Yellow Leather Coral ($50)
2 x Toadstool Leather Corals ($80 for large, $50 for small)
7 x Orange Ricordia Yuma ($25-50 each depending on size)
Many x Turquoise Mushroom Coral ($10 each)
Many Bunches x Purple Gorgonians ($30 each)
Purple Montipora Colonies ($20-100 each depending on size)
Chaetomorpha Bunch, big and has bristleworms! ($20)

100#+ Live Rock, Florida Aquacultured ($2.50/pound without corals attached)
Substrate, various grades from sugar fine to mixed puka (free with purchase, available only after some live rock sells)

*What do I mean by long-term foster home?  In short, I give you the fish for free, and if I get back into the hobby enough to take them back one day, I'm allowed to do so.  Pics of them now and then would be nice too – they’re my babies!

Tanks & Accessories
Note about tanks: All tanks were custom-made from specialty builders with cell-cast acrylic of appropriate thickness.  None of the tanks has ever had a leak.  All tanks have plumbing holes and normal wear-and-tear; the display tanks could use an interior sanding to remove clouding scratches from the urchins’ munching.  They are priced at 50% of what I paid (without considering shipping).  These tanks are heavy; when picking up, please bring help as I cannot assist.

Primary Display (~200G), $1000: 80” x 25 ¼” x 24 ½” (includes overflow; ¾” acrylic)
Secondary Display (~70G), $400: 23 ¾” x 25 ½” x 27 ½” (plus an 18 ½” x 6” x 27 ½” attached overflow centered against the back – i.e., the footprint of this aquarium is not square; ¾” acrylic body, ½” acrylic top/bottom)
Utility Tank (~25G), $240: 19” x 15 ¾” x 20” (includes overflow)
Utility Tank (~28G), $230: 21” x 15 ¾” x 20” (no overflow)
Utility Tank (~40G), $280: 18” x 26” x 20” (no overflow)
Utility Tank (~38G), $225: 32” x 22.5” x 12” (no overflow)
Utility Tank (~90G), $400: 40” x 26” x 20” (has baffles)

Arctica Chiller (DBM-250): $500
2 x Arctica Chiller (DBE-200): $400
Calcium Reactor (huge, brand unknown, a fixer-upper): Free with purchase
2 x Stenner Peristaltic Pumps (for water exchange system): $200 each
Ozotech Poseidon Ozone Generator: $120
BRS Air Dryer: $75
2 x Aqua UV Sterilizers: $200 each
3 x Diamond Amp Master 6250-4 Pumps: $400 each
Reef Octopus 200EXT Protein Skimmer: $500
3 x Radion XR-30w G4 Pro: $500 each

Controller System
Note: The system is currently in a fault state as of about 2 weeks ago.  I cannot pull everything out to diagnose.  If you buy a module and it’s faulty, return it to me and I’ll refund your money.

Apex AquaController: $100
EB8 (with a few dead/stuck outlets): $50
EB8 (working fine): $100
PM1: $40
ALD w/ 3 Sensors: $80
Probes (older, were working fine but I suggest checking calibration): Free with purchase

Let me know if you have any questions!  I might be able to deliver livestock in Greater Seattle area, but not big stuff like live rock, sand, or tanks.

Good looking stuff. Best of luck on the sale. That eel is pretty special right now. Extremely hard to find. 

That is a red cardinalfish not a solderfish. 

Thank you!  Updated the cardinalfish ID, my bad.  And Elle is one of my favorites: beautiful, full of personality, hard to give up.

Oh and that skinny yellow guy is a tilefish, also cool. 

Thanks for the ID!  He's so tame, he'll touch your fingers when fed!!
