Hi all,

After more work commitments i'm having to tear down my 180 gallon tank, so i'm selling everything.

I will post everything in the next few days, so giving you the heads up. All livestock must go before my equipment.

Thanks

I cant post any pics until i return back to BC as im in AB for another 3 weeks and i have the digital camera.

The Blond Naso Tang was purchased from Hidden Reef 2 months ago and is eating healthy and i would estimate the size to be a good 6+ inches or so.

Thanks Jason....

Thats what happens when i go insane with buying tanks, livestock, corals and equipment then get work that sends me all over BC and AB for at least 2 months at a time.

Im still keeping my ...ahem, correction.... my wife is still keeping her 72 gallon reef tank, so not totally getting out of it yet, but probably going to be making a house move real soon.

Hi David

Sorry to see that you are going to have to breakdown your tank. You spent so much time getting exactly what you wanted. It sounds like a good career move though. I should arrange to pick up the live rock that we exchanged a while ago, for rock with GSP. Let me know when the best time might be. I can wait until your back in town.

Hi all, after a few enquiries about my tank, here are the dimensions of the tank so solve any confusions;

72 inch long by 18 inches deep and 24 inches high , so if this does not make it a 180 gallon as i thought it was when i purchased it, im not sure of the exact holding.

Thanks

EDIT: The Wifey tells me the dimensions are 72 x 30 x 18 = 180 gal

I would LOVE that copperbanded butterfly if it's still available.
Had one on hold at ocean aquatics but they never called me to tell me it was recovered from shipping and okay to transfer home.
thank you.

After some confusion I've had the wife check the dimensions and they are 72 x 30 x 18. Yes it is a 180 gal tank, as others will confirm who have seen it.
Sorry for the confusion.

Sorry for the confusion.

That works out to be like 169 or so...

Pm'd you about the tank. Very interested, as I was about to build an acrylic around those dimensions but this may work out well instead. Not sure when you were planning on selling though, I know you have to sell all livestock first. Were you only selling livestock at the end of september? So the tank wouldnt be available until much later?

Thanks!

Hi David

How is it going, you have had a very busy summer. I see that you still have a few of your fish left.

I have been busy all summer as well, where does the time go.

Do you still have some rock left? I should have arranged to pick it up earlier.

Ok dokay then..... looks like after holding the tank and rock and keeping the whole set up running and cycling basically for my buyer for over 6 weeks... that hes probably not going to come through with it and so to give a heads up..... the tank, lights, sump, stand and rock are all probably going to be available for sale again by next week....

Im going to give him until next week and then its available again..... so any takers? there is over 250 -300 lbs of live rock in there and have some nice flat peices in there and others with some great shapes.

So the deal went south and whats left is back for sale again.

The Tank with stand and hood etc.

The 72 inch MH and VHO lights.

I have about 200 lbs of live rock left now.

Thanks all
