Just wondering, I notice that it's a 90g tank you're selling that has over 200 pounds of live rock in it. Correct me if I'm wrong (I do suck at math) but I didn't think 200 pounds of live rock could fit into a 90g tank. Just curious if that's possible or not, I have seen 90g's with a little over a 100 pounds of LR in them and they looked fairly full so that is why I'm thinking 200 pounds would probably not fit.

Yes more then 200lbs of live rock could fit in a 90g
(for any interested buyers I would be more then happy to weight it for them at my place)

I know the rule of thumb is one pound per gallon, but I like the look of lots of live rock in my tank and I always view it as extra "filter media” as it helps improve the water quality.

Oh I know it was a very difficult decision
– but I’ll be travelling over seas next year and I’ll be gone for 6months, perhaps a year.

there are lots of different densities of rock available, I had over 260lbs of rock in my 90 originaly, about 4 years later I got rid of some and went to about 180lbs. I had mostly fairly dense jakarta rock If I was using branch fuji I probably would be luckey to get 180 lbs in the tank.

I forget about the different densities of rock, so that makes more sense. We have about 180-200 pounds of LR in each of our 230g tanks, and I was looking at our 90g sump trying to visualize how it would fit.

If a potential buyer is worried about the move,
I may be able to provide transportation and can store all corals and fish in another tank while we do the move and safely move the livestock later to avoid any fatalities.

-If anyone is really interested in the tank, sump, lights and protein skimmer, I will part out -
–I live in Riverbend, if you want to come by and look at it you are more then welcome.

Would you be looking for anything in trade? I would be interested in tank/light/stand/sump depending on price or what you may be looking for in terms of a trade.
