For sale, 125 gallon reef tank! The tank has been running successfully for a number of years. It has some scratches but still looks great. The tank has a built in overflow and has 2 returns. I have really enjoyed this tank and not looking forward to letting it go but my wife and I are moving and the time it will take to move will be a real pain keeping the tank running. I also plan to upgrade to a larger tank in our new place. J

I would like to sell the entire setup tank and livestock for $1500. If I have no takers then I will sell the livestock separately and then the tank. Feel free to email me at marco_fiorentini@yahoo.com for pics or set up a time to stop by and see the tank. I live in Mira Mesa. You will have to pick up I will not ship.

Let me know how much you'd let the tank, stand, and canopy go for.

I'm interested in the chromis and 250 MH's and the 55 watters anyway.

I'm planning on looking at a 125 this weekend. If you decide to sell this thing, please let me know before saturday morning.

EDIT: forgot about the micron bags and skimmer :)

This maybe a novel idea but why don't you all start a thread to pool your resources and make him an offer for the whole set up. Then part/frag it out between you and sell what no one wants on Reef Central.....
That way you have a win-win.

Your a genious. I'll throw in $250 for the chiller and 250w metal halides.

nalbar
06-25-2004, 01:01 PM
mike IS a genious.

all we need is 5 guys willing to put 300 bucks in each and we can draw straws for what we want and part out the rest.

i am willing to be one of the 5.

btw jerome, i want the chiller also! :eek:

with jerome and i we have 2. lets do this!
