So I have been thinking about downsizing now that I have my 200g display and 80g frag tank. I have been contemplating selling my custom 60g cube setup for awhile now just because if im going to get rid of one it makes the most sense. I really dont want to let it go but the maintenance effort and cost on three tanks is more than I really want right now especially when I'd like to be putting more money into my photography addiction.
This is just a feeler post for the most part to see what kind of interest there is for this thing. It has to make sense for me to break down. Its not going to be cheap but i'm not going to be unrealistic either. For those who have seen this system in person I think most would say its about as high end as you will ever find in a cube this size.
The build thread will all the pictures and detail you could ever ask for is below. I built this tank as a nem cube but it will grow anything!
If I do end up breaking this down. I will be keeping all the live stock (fish, nems, and inverts) I wont however be keeping any of the corals or live rock. The corals and live rock I will probably sell off seperate or as part of the deal if the buyer wants. I wont be considering and coral or live rock sales unless I have a buyer for the tank.
Of course Id like to sell the thing complete but we all know how that works. I will be willing to break the system apart to a certain degree which I have broken down below. Every single piece of equipment right down to the cooling fans has been meticulously cared for and is all in prefect condition. No rust no corosion. Nothing that looks like someone dumped all the gear in the ocean for 10 years then dug it up and tried to sell it.

Now on to what I'm asking, whats included, and what I payed for the whole setup minus live rock, sand, and of course the livestock, those were not factored in.
I added up all my records and receipts and have invested just shy of $6,000 for this setup. $5,935 to be pretty precise.
The entire package ($2,500)
Whats included-
-Custom built stand and canopy and waterproof liner (I can guarantee you would be extremely hard pressed to find anything nicer or better built ANYWHERE for a tank of this size)
-Marineland 60g cube with center overflow.
-20g custom made glass sump and 4" CPR sock holder.
-Royal Exclusive BubbleKing 160 skimmer (I promise you could never ask for more skimmer on this setup)
-Two 3/4" Sea Swirls. ( I also have a third new in box as a backup for an extra fee)
-Two Eheim 1262 900GPH return pumps. (1 is extra, I swap them about every 8 months for cleaning and maintenance, All plumbing included for easy swap)
-Reef keeper Elite with 5 power bars (1 new in box), SL1, SL2, Net module,humidity sensor, Netgear wireless access point, and too many other little extra to list. (over $1200 in total bought new)
-TLF 150 media reactor with maxijet 1200 (used for carbon and GFO)
-Lumantek 150,175,250, HQI select a watt MH ballast
-250w DE reflector and 1 new 14000k Pheonix bulb.
-2 Reefbright 15" XHO led strips (actinic blue)
-2 BRS dosers
-2 BRS 1 gallon space saver dosing containers.
-Spectrapure UPLC2 ATO (IMO the best ATO system made)
-Battery backup system and surge protection
-And of course all sch 80 plumbing and gate valves. (top notch precision plumbing here)
Bare Bones package ($1,400) I am willing to let buyer pick and choose anything else they would like to add but this is my bare minimum for breaking system apart.
Whats included-
-Tank
-Custom Stand with water proof liner
-Custom Sump
-1 Eheim 1262 return pump
-2 3/4" Sea Swirls
-CPR sock holder
-High end exhaust and cooling fans.
