This is a thriving reef tank, nearly a year running. The tank is very mature and I don't even need to monitor water values any more. I do approximately 20 gallon water changes every 3-4 weeks to keep everything happy. The tank really is thriving, great growth from all of the corals and is set up to be able to support basically anything that you could want. Plenty of lighting, plenty of flow, plenty of space. It is beautiful to look at... probably the best piece of artwork in our house. You can sit and stair at it for hours and constantly find new things that you've never seen before. That is the beauty of salt tanks, it is a true ecosystem. Details are as follows:

Stand dimensions are 74" long x 20.5" wide x 40" tall.

This tank can come with many extras if you need them. I have lots of food, chemicals, test kits, pumps, heaters, etc.
Why am I selling? I just bought another house and I intend to do a large in-wall (or room seperator) tank and rather than attempting to make this stuff work, I am just going to start from scratch.

Sump:

Tank is located near Indianapolis in Fishers, Indiana. If the tank moves locally, I will assist with reassembly. I have moved this tank before, so I assure you that it can be done. (although it is tedious work ;-) )
This is probably $3k+ in equipment before you even start adding in livestock costs. Live rock alone in this tank is worth around $1000 at retail prices.
Asking: $2000
