110 Gallon tank, sump, skimmer, lights, Red Deer Area, New package Price

[Slick Fork]

Hi All,

Due to some changes in my life, I have decided with a heavy heart to put my system up for sale.

So, here's the details
-Tank, 110 gallons measuring 48X24x22 eurobraced with a starfire front panel and an external center over flow. Less then one year old one small scratch on side. Stand fits tank perfectly trimmed with maple and birch
-Sump, 55 gallon breeder style, age unknown, baffles added by myself a few years ago, stand made out of 2x4 and plywood
-Light Fixture, handmade canopy trimmed to match tank stand, 4 54 watt t5 bulbs with ice-cap reflectors. It's powered by 2 advance mark X 2x54 watt ballasts which are completely dimmable. Also 2 175 watt MH with reef optik2 reflectors and the vertex electronic ballasts. Bulbs are roughly 1 month old
-Vertex IN-180 Skimmer.

Tank, Stand, Sump and Stand for sump $700. Basically the cost of the tank, and I'm throwing the stand, sump and plumbing in.

Light Fixture, $700 with the Profilux Dimm2 powerbar, $600 without the Dimm2 power bar. The Dimm2 is required with the profilux for dimming but without it the lights CAN simply turn on and off

Vertex In-180 Skimmer $200

New Package Price, if you take everything, Tank, stand, sump, light fixture, skimmer, I'll let it all go for $1000... call it a convenience discount. Keep in mind that the MH bulbs are almost brand new and alone are worth $100 each.

All these prices are OBO, if you have a reasonable offer I want to hear it.
I may list more so keep your eyes on this thread.

:cry: I'm very sorry to hear you are getting out of the hobby. :( If you become willing to part out anything (hardware or livestock) at all please pm me. Good luck with the sale.

[Edmonton newbie]

if you do end up parting out i would be very interested in the hardware it would be a perfect upgrade for me

[fishytime]

Dude???? very sorry to hear this bud.....I also may be interested in some stuff if you decide to part out (sps,tunzes)

[Slick Fork]

Hi all,

I should start by saying thanks to all who've responded with some interest in parting it out and I will keep it in mind if I decide to do so.

One of the challenges I have with parting it out is the integration of some of the systems, particularly the lighting system and profilux.

Second, this sale is more of a choice to take a break from the hobby while I'm in school and put the cash earned into several other pursuits. It's not a necessity and rather then sell some of the stuff and have other bits hanging around until I get tired of looking at them and then giving the rest away... just doesn't appeal to me at this time. I'd really hate for example to sell all my coral and fish right off the bat and have a large glass bucket of live-rock hanging around for 6 months.

This is a beautiful system, and will make a great purchase for the person that comes along and wants it. Until that person comes along though, I'm going to enjoy it!!

[Slick Fork]

After some more thought,

I would maybe consider parting this out if I had more than passing interest in all the components. I'll work on putting together some pricing for all the bits. In the meantime, feel free to PM me with any individual components you would be interested in, and if you like you could pre-emptively offer for something.

I'm also still open to reasonable offers for the whole thing.

Cheers

[htrfocus]

PM Sent, hoping you'll part out!

Hi there,

After a few days of getting all sorts of strange and low-ball offers and requests I've decided that I was right the first time and parting out is simply not going to work. I simply don't have the time to sort out serious offers from the crazy ones and I'd rather have either a full, nice tank or no tank at all than spend the winter looking at a half picked through pile of rubble. I apologize to everyone I was having a real dialogue with.

So, we're back to selling it as a complete system, with several changes. First, is I'm taking the profilux off the table the Dimm-2 powerbar is crucial to making the lights dim so that will stay as part of the package... it can be controlled with either the full profilux controller, or the very basic light controller. Second change, I will look at selling all the livestock (rock,coral,fish,inverts) as a package seperate from the hardware. And finally, I'm adjusting the price to reflect the loss of the profilux controller as well as a general reduction.

So, new price for the package is $4400 or serious offer.
Livestock only $1400 or serious offer.

Thanks and sorry for the waffling!

[Slick Fork]

Hi all,

I've decided to reduce the price. Also, I changed the lighting up a little. I replaced the 4 non-dimmable t5's with 2 175 watt Metal Halide's.

http://www.jlaquatics.com/product/lb-h1715i/Iwasaki+175W+15000K+Metal+Halide+Bulb+-+Mogul+Base.html

And the 4 dimmable t5's are still accompanying it. This is a really awesome light now!

$3500 OBO for the works (everything previously listed except the profilux control system)

That's livestock, tank, wavebox, sump, lights, skimmer, etc. The whole meal deal.

Cheers

[MMAX]

[Slick Fork]

Well, my livestock all went today and I'm having a serious case of sellers remorse. So, time to deal with the hardware...

Light Fixture, $700 with the Profilux Dimm2 powerbar

Vertex In-180 Skimmer $200

[Slick Fork]

Awesome,

Too bad about the fox face, he was one of my favourites and I'd had him since late 2006 or early 07.

I'm really happy that the candy cane came back so well for you!
