Hey all- Im selling my complete 75 gallon setup in Boston. Im doing the listing via ebay. If you have any questions, feel free to ping me at noah.ronald.freeman@gmail.com

The link for the ebay sale is: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7701369742&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&rd=1
Alternatively, the item number on ebay is: 7701369742

Here is the complete description:
This is a complete 75 Gallon Saltwater aquarium kit, a full setup. It was running for 2 years as a very healthy marine fish and coral aquarium. I am selling it complete with live rock and live sand, but without fish and corals.

This setup is complete and top of the line all along the way. The buyer will simply need to pick it up, plug it all in, and they will be ready to simply add fish/corals and enjoy!

The seller also reserves the right to sell this setup outside of auction before the auction ends. The complete equipment list is:

Tank and Stand:
-75 Gallon Aquarium with overflow box, silent downflow pipe (2 through tank tubes)
-Cherry wood aquarium stand with 2 doors
-Matching Cherry wood tank top

Living things:
-100 Lbs live rock
-5" deep live sand

Hardware
-fully rigged 20 gallon sump
-Iwaki main circulation pump (the good kind with the japanese, not the cheaper, US motor)
-Automatic freshwater top-off fully set up with sensor and pump
-Remora pro protein skimmer and pump
-Emperor chemical/physical filter rigged in series with the sump circulation
-200 watt heater
-3 powerheads
-2 complete sets of 2x65watt powercompact lights, with 2 blue actinic bulbs and 2 daylight white bulbs
-automatic light timer
-3 power strips to plug it all in

This setup was the highest end available when I set it up 2 years ago. It was a flourishing coral/fish tank for 2 years (see pics), but now I need to sell it because I am moving. I have sold the fish and corals seperately, so the new buyer can choose exactly what they want to stock the tank with. I have over $4,000 invested in the above hardware list, and this is a great opportunity for a new or experienced aquarist to buy a first or additional fully setup tank at a large discount.

If the buyer wants to convert this setup to freshwater, it is ready to go for that as well (they will of course need to discard the liverock and live sand and protein skimmer, but the rest of the setup is perfect for a freshwater user).

This auction is for "you pick up" and I will NOT ship it (it is way too big). The buyer will need to pick up the entire setup in Boston themselves within 5 days of the end of the auction (I will be happy to help the buyer load the tank). I am also unable to "split up" this setup, the buyer is buying the complete kit. :o
