Departing Hobby - 90 gal reef tank and support parts for sale soon

#1
I've been in the hobby for 11 years (you can check reef central for my username - was active for a long time and also was involved in the early RMRC years ago).

Since kids came along, sports and all the things tied to that, I've not focused time to devote to the hobby and my tank I once took great pride in should go where it can get the attention it deserves. That said, I'll be listing items here.

Before any of the parts go, I need to make sure the critters in the tank have a place to go:

UPDATED 5/30

If someone wants all the livestock and rock/sand - $125, otherwise:
- Pink Leather coral with the rock he's attached to - $20
- Blue Hippo Tang - $20
- Royal Gramma - $20
- Hermit Crabs & snails -if they're out and about, they'll get thrown in with any other livestock (i.e. I'm not crab hunting!)
- Serpent Starfish - $5

All other fish and livestock must go before I sell this:
- Vanuatu Live Rock (between 50-75 lbs), Mushrooms are on the rock - $75
- Sand Bed - free with the rock or with the tank

You'll need to bring your own transport containers or bags, etc.


Once they're taken care of, I'll be listing the rest of the items:
Will list prices once livestock is taken care of:
- All Glass 90 Gal Reef Ready aquarium (48" x 24" x 18") w/durso overflow, cabinet and tank top trim piece
- AB Aquaspace light, 2 x 250W HQI, with CF actinic in center (bulbs are past life for corals, but work for plain light); aquabracket or HW to hang from ceiling to be included
- Lifereef LF1-125 Sump
- Lifereef VS2 Protien Skimmer
- My Reef Creation Dual Chamber Calcium Reactor with mag pump
- 10 lb CO2 bottle
- Solinoid, pressure gauge for CO2 bottle
- Little Giant pump - pump impeller died, but I suspect someone willing to repair will get a deal
- Iwaki pump - this powerhouse has been the life of the tank since inception and still going strong
- Pinpoint pH meter - sensor included, but is past recommended replacement date
- Refractometer
- Kent RO/DI setup
- Python water change kit
- Kent Sea Salt
- Kent Pro Scraper
- Other stuff I haven't gone through yet

That's the majority of items from the top of my head. I just decided this morning that I need to breakdown the tank and let things go so I'll post pictures soon and asking prices for items. I just thought I'd get motivated in breaking it down if I posted here.

Finally, I'm not a scammer. I know it's my first post here, but figured I try at this site before going craigslist/ebay with this stuff. As I mentioned, you can check my profile at reef central with the same username. Will post again soon.

I'll take the blue hippo depending on size. I would prob take the gramma as well but I think that is the same price as the LFS I think. Let me know. Thanks.

Sorry. Let me know if you're interested. I still have the gramma, 2 brittle stars, a leather coral and an urchin that need a home. Since the rock is keeping them alive, I need them to find a home before I release the rock, but I'll earmark it for you. Let me know.
