Default Now I am selling my Tank (fresh water setup)

Well after I have had almost all my fish die on me I am going to my 25 gallon tank to do a nano. I lost a banggai then 1 week later i lost my coral beauty, about a week after that (last night) my male clark's clownfish died. All I have left is a banggai, my female clark's and a damsel. I dont thinki they will make it. The Banggai has stuff growing at the bottom of his tail, the clarks is looking pretty raggid, and the damsel will probaly be fine but who knows. So I am treating the tank but i dont think they will make it. The Amonia is 0, Nitrate is 0 and nitrite is 0. This is what my test kits are reading. So I am selling my entire 40 gallon tank as a freshwater system. This is what it includes:
-40 gallon tank
-tongue and groove pine cabinet
-H.O.T magnum Canister Filter
-Power head (dont know the rating)
-Aquarium Gravel
-150 Heater
-10 assorted fake aquaroum plants
-Fake Log Decoration
-3 Medium Size Rocks
- Large Container of Flake Food
-Small Container of Freeze Dried White Shrimp
-Aquarium Background (double sided)
-Fish Net
-Bag of Algea Pellets
-2 36 inch flouresent light strips.

Right now it stands at $500 OBO there is about 660 bucks worth of stuff (when new) there. Make me an offer. If you live in the taber are I will Deliver. I can Also Install it if you wish.

I agree, it is going from the ridiculous to the sublime.

Well i kinda have and i kinda havent. You guys are right maybe i should stay big so... Ive decided to stay with the 40 gallon but build a new stand. Have a 25 gallon gravity fed refugium, and a 10 gallon sump. With 55 pounds of Fiji Premium Live rock in the tank. Fluidized bed filter and a Skimmer. 4 inches of Live sand. Ive decided I am going to start all over. Boil the gravel and clean it out. The base rock is going to the school and the corals will be given to a friend until i can get the tank fully operational. What does it sound like guys. For flow 2 250 gph power heads and a 300gph pump to feed the refugium. 300 gph pump to feed the sump also. For live stock Will have 2 ocellaris clowns, 2 Banggai Clowns 2 Yellow head shrimp gobies, green clown goby, Pearly Jawfish, 10 of ever snail J&L has, 2 cleaner shrimps, 1 of every kind of pistol shrimp Saltwaterfish.com has (exept bullseye), No hermit crabs, Tiger sleeper goby, 1 Cucumber. For corals not sure yet but i am leaning towards a hammer and a frogspawn for sure.

That's a lot of stuff for a 40! I think you will have problems with all those pistol shrimp in your tank. I believe they are territorial so you may have problems there. Same thing with gobies. Unless you know how to sex them, you might just end up with a whole lot of dead fish. 8 fish in a 40 is really pushing your luck IMO.

So, you have 2x250GPH powerheads and 2x300GPH return pumps? Did I read that right? Just need some clarification.
