For the folks asking about the spare sump and the lights, here are pics. I still owe someone pics of the stands- I haven't forgotten you. I just have to move stuff around to get to them. I'll post those pics this afternoon. I will also post closer shots of the 150 this afternoon - the lights aren't on yet, and I need to go to an appointment.[attachment=62777:name]

No worries Cindy. I'm in no hurry. You can post pics of the stands and their dimensions when you get a chance. I know you have a ton of people in and out right now and the weekends are probably especially busy! Thanks for not forgetting about me. 
It has been crazy.I'm asking $600 for the whole system. It includes the tank & stand, fuge, rock, fish, heaters, pumps, skimmer, and light. It's a mixed reef vs fish only or coral only, and that's a bit harder to maintain because of the complexity. For newbies, you want to consider if you are ready for a mixed reef. Getting an established one this size is certainly a better choice than starting with a nano, but there is a lot to know about how to set it up and maintain it. I'm no expert at that, so you definitely want to tap into all the knowledge the members of this club have to offer. They've been extremely helpful to me.
Thanks,
Cindy

Okay, two more questions - how could we take a look at it and how do you transport something like that? Thanks!
Thanks!
Transporting will be a royal pain in the ***. Just being honest with you, not trying to scare you off. You will want to get a LOT of tubs and buckets (don't forget lids) to hold the rocks, water, sand, corals, and fish. I have some here, but not enough to hold everything in that tank. I have a ton of polybags to put them in to try to protect them some, as well. The tank is extremely heavy, because it's an old glass tank, and it's in the basement, so bring some burly friends with you. Nate and I carried it into the house and down the stairs by ourselves, and nearly wound up in the hospital. One of the dumbest things we ever did. Wear clothes you don't mind getting wet and mucky. It will take several hours from beginning to end, so be prepared for that. It could take a couple of days to get it set up the way you want. You'll use the tubs to hold the fish and corals while you set up the tank and get the rocks in place, and they need to be the right temp and get the right amount of circulation.
Well NOW y'all tell me!! I'm not gonna feel right about raising the price on GaryandTracy. But maybe I should set up a silent auction or something for it if they decide they don't want to take it. I'm not greedy, but I really could use a little financial help.
And yes, there's a hippo, and those spendy firefish, and a yellow tang, and a kole tang, and blennies, and diamond goby, a pair of gorgeous clowns, and wrasses... all sorts of stuff in that tank. Crazy color corals (mostly pink, because he loved pink. I hate pink. That right there should have told me that we weren't gonna last.)
Oh, and I found a small bubblegum monster frag today. I sold the big one yesterday, and I thought that was the last of it, but I was wrong.
