5 year old thriving mixed reef tank with great SPS and LPS growth, fish, relatively new LEDs, etc (details below). All must go (it's a long unpleasant story), and I'm willing to part with it all for free IF you come and figure out how to take it all away. I suspect I'll get a lot of requests for splitting stuff out, and if I have to do that I'll ultimately look to sell pieces, but my goal is to get the whole enchilada out of the house ASAP.

The good:

Fish: powder blue tang, flame hawkfish, long-nose hawkfish x 2, foxface, sailfin tang, pinktail trigger, cardinals, black & white clown, oscellaris clown

Corals: cantaloupe sized pink birdsnest, fist sized ORA red planet, lots of other SPS including yellow scroll, red setosa, cats paw and others. Lots of great softies as well including open brains.

Lights: three new LED light panels (Galaxyhydro 55x3w dimmable 165w), 4 T5 light bulbs (bulbs about a year old), fans

Electronics: old but perfectly functional digital aquatics controller, two BRS dosing pumps

Skimmer: Vertex IN250 venturi skimmer

Pumps: ReeFlo Sequence Hammerhead x 2 (the thing is plumbed down into the basement)

Tank: 150g 5'x2'x2' with a nice stand

Sump: 110g sump down in the basement

Other stuff: too much to list including Rod's Food, pumps, etc.

The Bad: It's big, it's heavy, and I don't know where to start in taking it apart/transporting it

The Ugly: Thanks to the life change the tank is dirty with quite a bit of algae on the acrylic and there are a few aptaisia in the tank. I've always been able to keep them in check with filefish, but my last one died a few months ago.

I cant see the location but i dont mind the drive to most places in michigan. Can take it apart and get it out of your hair this weekend. The big thing is going to be getting the tank in my truck. How acessible is the tank? Any stairs? Givevme a call or text at 646-573-7222. Dont mind the area code i used to be stationed in NY and never changed the number. Email is also ok but i dont check it as often. [email protected] if you decide to give it to someone else let me know jther way so i dont bug you about it later wondering if the tank is still up for grabs or not.
Thank you.
Artur.

I PMd him basically immediately after he posted this, and gave them my cell number telling I could get it out today. Haven't heard a thing.

Might have changed his mind. You sen the pics i would not let go of that tank unless my balls were on the line. When i seen the add i couldnt belive it. Its actualy the tank i wanted to get for a while but never had the money. Been picking up equpment for it. So i got lights and a skimmer for that size tank. Saving up for the tank and stand. And whola this is a full system with livestick that looks awsome. Thats better than cristmass. But im guessing if he does give it away it will go to the first person so dong hang your head yet. This one is defenatly worth the wait.
