200 gallon oceanic reef ready setup for sale

[chris bottom]

i have a 6 yr old oceanic reef ready 200 gallon pre-drilled tank setup for sale the equipment included is as follows......
amiracle 300 gallon wet dry
iwaki 70 series pump
ocean clear canister filter
startronics 34 watt uv sterilizer needs bulb and o rings
oceanic protein skimmer
ponderosa pine stand from oceanic
4 twin tube oceanic flourescent light fixtures with 8 coralife 10,000 k bulbs
one of the light fixtures is not working which im guessing is bad switch or ballast other than that the setup is ready to go just add water
theres also about 200 pounds or so of sand in the tank that will go with the tank if the buyer wishes to have it.........i would like to get 1500 out of this setup but all offers are welcomed since i would like to get rid of this so i can have room for my kid thats going to be born in about 5 months

wow,that seems like alot of money for a 6 year old setup with no livestock.i can go to my lfs and have them build a brand new acrylic tank for that much money.

well considering a new oceanic tank exactly like this is 1800 for tank stand and lighting and a acrylic tank alone this size is 1300-1600 depending on manufacturer i think its more than fair

It is a pretty good price considering how mutch it would cost to buy all that seperate. Though if you look on auction sites bigger tanks are selling for less (I think that is what she/he ment). But you did put OBO so that is a drawin.

true i agree but i have to say if you try to buy this stuff either locally or via online sources even ---- or wherever you want to look your still going to spend a lot more than what im asking not to mention your not guarenteed to find equipment thats in as good as shape as mine is either.......like i was always told as a child if you buy cheap you get cheap, and naturally quality isnt cheap, not trying to sound like a arse its just that people think that your selling something and you should let them basicly let them "steal" it for a paltry price, dunno guess im just weird :notsure:

what size is the skimmer?? venturi? needle wheel? downdraft? is there a pump?

 

[chris bottom]

the skimmer is a oceanic model 6 if i recall and when i bought it the pump was already with it so i dont know what the manufacturer is of the pump istelf........im assuming its a venturi skimmer since oceanic doesnt skimp on anything

I know what your saying. IF I had space and time (and money) I would buy a big tank like this.
