I am just seeing if there is any interest in my 75g cichlid tank right now, we may sell it when the baby comes so I can focus on the baby, and the saltwater tank. I may not sell, but we will see. here is the equipment

75g tank 48Lx18wx21h braced, a few scratches
10g hospital tank with heater, lid, lights, sponge filter, air pump etc. (fits underneath tank stand)
Marineland C360 canister filter rated for 100g

Aquaclear 110 HOB rated for up to 110g
Heater
Glass Top
3-5" white Sand bed
Topfin Molded (fake) reef rock scape
misc plant decor (fake)
1 24" PC light ATM... with some ghetto DIY Moonlights

FISH
2 Frontosa 3"
2 Jewel Cichlid
2 Taiwan Reef cichlids
2 3"+ Venustus (females I believe)
2 Electric Blue haps
1 Yellow Lab
1 Tropheus Duboisi
1 Copadichromis Borleyi
1 Milomo
4 assorted dwarf afras (cobues, white tops, etc.)
2 Black Congo Calvus
1 female red empress
1 female aulonocara jacobfreibergi (malawi butterfly)
1 synodontis multipunctatus (catfish) max sized at 5-6"
1 bristlenose cat max 4-6"
Its pretty stocked, but the tank is very peaceful and has been running 2 years (well 2 years in the 100g about 1 1/2 months in the 75g)

I again am just seeing if there is any interested people in this tank, aside from the ghetto lights at the moment, its really lovely imo. I will post a picture here. (oh yeah it has a stand too :lol:)
If you are interested give me a PM with a price that is fair and if you are still interested down the road I will let you know. Main thing is, kids come first, and between it all I hate to think of selling it, but if it comes to it I will

thanks :) I love it, and would hate to see it go, but it may need to in the future here, the landlords already made me downgrade :lol: even though I'm on the main floor and have insurance.. pure bull if you ask me.

nice tanks Marko, looks like we had (or you had) some of the same decor. Cichlids are what got me into the hobby. Started with a 40g about 8 years ago with dwarf mbuna, and then move into the 100 2 years ago, now down to a 75. Still love them though

yeah it was pretty similar.

i started with a 30 long. ended up having
1x 30
2x 75s
1x 45 corner
1x 120.

i was addicted to cichlids..... until i bought a 55 gallon salt

Bump

for sale if anyone is interest, not price in mind about $100 in equipment $500 in fish

open to offers, would prefer to sell as a whole, but will part our after livestock is gone if necessary.

Lights are now T8s and diy blue lunar lights

If not I may try to just sell the fish and eventually move the SW tank into it
