Unfortunatly, I have came to a hard determination that I have to let one of my now 4 tanks go. It is going to be to much for someone to look after while away on business and vacations.
The tank in question is a 40 gallon breeder with two drilled overflows with strainers on each into a "Y" drop to a 20 gallon sump. The sump is a DIY and might use some TLC to clean it up, but its offered with the tank along with a one month old Mag3 return pump. I am also including a seaclone skimmer for free.
The lighting over this tank is a sunshine type 400w metal halide square pendant. The draw back is the ballast is located in the pendant and its heavy. I have it resting on the canopy itself. But with some nice hardware its mountable or hangable over this tank. The bulb in this tank is a 2 month old 400w XM 20k bulb just burnt in and looks sweet. It really lights this tank nicely.
The custom made stand and tank is all one piece and is nicely built (Thanks to Railguy) He is an excellent carpenter.
There isn't much livestock in the tank because I was using it for a frag tank, so there is NO live rock and such to send along.
So inluded with this setup is the following
40 gallon drilled breeder tank and all plumbing
20 gallon long sump and mag 3 return with plumbing
400 watt halide pendant light with a near new 20k XM bulb.
Seaclone skimmer......
I received allot of this equipment from trading, but don't need anything so I am going to have to sell it. Sorry for those I traded with, but I am sure you understand.
I am asking $300 for the entire setup. I would like to sell this as a whole and not part out. But if one needs me to part, I might consider reasonable offers.... This would make a nice system.
Also the tank is flawless, NO scratches.
Thanks

I'm interested in everything except the lighting. What are the dimensions on the tank? Got any pics?
Where in eastern PA are you?

I am in zipcode 19512. This tanks still has water in it and some frags and such but can be emptied somewhat quickly if needed.
The tank/stand/ and canopy is $125, this inlcudes the tank,stand,canopy,sump and all plumbing for the return.
However, I will state there are two other people looking at this system and once one person commits to it, its sold. I accept paypal and if you want to pay for it and then come and get it, its yours. I will snap pics shortly
The tank is 36wide x 18 deep x 16 high. The tank is scratch free.
As for the light, here is a link to the manufacture, its a plant horticulture light, but is still a 400W halide anyway you cut it. I replaced the bulb with a 20K xm bulb. Works like a charm.
I am willing to ship at the buyers expense, the light is $150 and you get the new bulb as well.
If you are serious about this and I post photo's you can email me at salnbrenda@comcast.net.
I am NOT trying to be pushy or come off jerky, but I am selling this thing to the first person who commits! I have waited and waited for people to respond sometimes and then the second in line moves on and buys another what ever and I am still stuck trying to move what the first guy bailed on after they said yes. So please only serious inquiries only please. I have excellent ---- feedback and can provide this upon request.
Thanks

Here are photos of the tank.




Now mind you the light is only sitting over the canpoy using 1x1's. I couldn't retro the light inside the canopy so this was my only option. The lid to the canopy is off the actual canopy and to the left of the tank. This will be placed back on the canopy before time of sale. You can mount retro's under the canopy because I think its about a 10" canopy.
Any rate let me know ok!
Thanks

Tank and all equipment is gone. Light is the only thing left and is a package deal! $150 for the light with bulb.
Will ship UPS Ground.
