All good things must come to an end. It’s time to be leaving the hobby and to discover something new :)
I will be parting with one deluxe, upgraded, mod’ed, nano cube set-up that will allow you to keep and grow just about anything that suits your fancy. Softies and hard corals are handled with ease. These things will light up. Florescent yellows, greens, deep blues, you name it.
This system is a couple years old, yes it has some scratches, and when the water is drained there will be cleaning to do. But it is a sweet set-up, worthy of any living room, just like where mine resides.

I just don’t have the time to part this out, so it is being sold as a complete system, livestock and all at a crazy low price. There is more money to be made on this system for someone willing and able to take the time to piece it out.

2 Gold Stripe Maroon clowns (1 small, 1 medium)
1 green bubble tip anemone (purple foot), clowns are hosting in it
Yellow Fiji, bright yellow, fluffy and happy
Plate coral, green & yellow with purple mouth, growing like a beast with weekly brine feedings
2 candy cane corals, kryptonite I think, 12-14 heads on each piece
1 micromussa colony, 40+ heads, too many to count
1 coco worm (red/white)
Live rock with every critter imaginable, tiny stars, brittle stars, clams, pods. The live rock is also showing signs of regrowth of blue xenia, zoas, palys, and a tiny start of prism favia!
Misc snails, including some cowries I’m very fond of, emerald crabs
The bad: nuisance algae, bubble and hair algae, some aptasia
