78 Gal. custom aquarium with EVERYTHING - $500 OBO
« on: November 28, 2013, 06:04:13 PM »
I don't have time to take care of it anymore, so it's been sitting empty in my house for a while. I promised my wife that it'll be gone by Chanukkah, so the price is very negotiable ;). Value is well over $1000.

The tank is a tall custom made 78 gallon - 48x12x29" (WxDxH), made out of 1/2" thick glass. It includes everything you would ever need. I put in an insane amount of money on this through the 3 years it was active, so all the equipment is top notch and in very good condition.

Includes:

Tank
Wooden stand/cabinet
Rena XP3 filter (worth about $200 by itself). Great condition but needs a good cleaning
Coralife T8 light fixture (worth about $250)
30' Python system (plus a somewhat leaking 20' extension)
Diatom filter (worth about $200, very hard to find) - needs cleaning
Glass hood
Heater (rated for twice the tank size)
Air pump
Mag Float magnetic algae scraper

A huge pile of random stuff - all types of food, filter media, conditioners, ammonia fix, test kits, medication, algae fix, nets, scrapers, rake, thermometer, decorations, buckets, Eheim filter (missing some parts), old fluorescent light fixture 20-30 lbs of cleaned sand, and who knows what else.

I'll add some pictures once I get home.

Pick up in BP - bring a friend and a car big enough to shlep it (at least a minivan).

Laugh all you like but I have no idea how to do that. I never use FB (all I have is a spam account), and I'm not planning on starting now :P.

As one father to another, I just want to tell you, it took me a few years, but when the kids' diaper looks like that, it's time to change it.

+100000

All I'm trying to do is sell a stupid fish tank, and so far all I've gotten is social and parenting advice. Only on a Jewish forum...

Next up: marriage advice!

In any case, the diaper issue is now taken care of:

When they say '7 - 12 pounds'...they really mean it.  Those diapers can't hold much more than that.
