85g DSA Custom Entire System Tear Down - *CORAL FIRST*

[Mr Cob]

I hate to do this but my entire collection of coral is going to be parted out and the system will be for sale as well. I'll be selling equipment too but not certain what I'll be keeping for the future tank build and what I will let go of now.

I love my livestock and if you have had a conversation with me, you know that most of it is my "favorite"...lol. Really just need to take a break and focus on purchasing a home. Also don't want to mess with the details of a live tank move when the time comes.

Coral first...

(fyi: this is my personal collection...no tax)

Misc:
- Teal Leptastrea mounted to Wet Acrylic one hole magnetic frag rack, purchased from Ace and then mounted it to a frag rack $15

Tank: $800 for all
- 85g Custom DSA Tank w/dual drains and dual returns that each have dual mega flow kits
- DSA Custom Canopy
- DSA custom stand that is much higher than normal, standing at 42" so that you do not have to look down into tank
- The tank has a custom foam background and partial foam bottom that I created, the sides and back have deep blue vinyl which is covered with black vinyl on the outside. Can be removed if desired.
- 4 x LED PowerBrite Modules that I will leave installed in the canopy. 2 strips are actinic and 2 are 50/50, I leave these on 24-7 for around the clock viewing of the system :)
- Eheim Return pump and plumbing
- Sweet Acrylic sump that Jack made for me awhile back

Thanks Ace, appreciate it. This will just be a break until we buy a new house and I can get a new display, so I'll be keeping equipment that I think I will be able to use. Some of these corals have been with me over 5 years and others are just really hard to let go of. Awesome snag on the toxic greens, I was hoping you would see those.

[Pennies2Cents]

Awww Rob, such a nice tank... :( I sent ya a pm...

[koa25]

Sorry you have to break it down Rob. That is tough. I just had to move my 125 from my 3rd floor apartment to a house and that was a treat. Lost two tangs and corals weren't happy for a couple days. Wish I had 150 for that hammer. Awesome looking piece. GLWS. Look forward to the next build you do.

[rrasco]

I'd like:

- Hollywood Stunner 3" $20

[Mr Cob]

[koa25]

I may have pooped myself in excitement and fear ha ha. But i can imagine. I'm sorry dude. Thats a bummer. Wish i cojld house stuff for you intil you got on your feet again.

[Mr Cob]

thanks bro, it's ok, I will have fun looking for all the stuff again, it's all in the build right? I mean that's where a lot of the addiction stems from I think.

[350gt]

JEREMY in 3,2,..........

[Mr Cob]

Jeremy has to sell that Aquapod to pay his parents back for the corals he bought from me. :) Jeremy you have cool parents to support you in your reefing bro.

[reefreak]

Lol it was just a temporary loan if i didnt owe em id be all over this lol.

[RayAllen]

Rob the 45g cube Goodball is selling would be awesome for you. 3 sides of starfire to show of your prize show pieces.

Sorry to see you take the 85 down, it is a sweet reef tank. Glad to see you are planning on keeping a aquarium up though. Looking forward to the new build when it gets started.

[350gt]

jeremy.... I was just mentioning to ROb earlier today how either you have the coolest parents to support your habit or one hell of a allowance.......

[reefreak]

Lol i work with my brothers and somtimes my uncle lol if not i wouldnt even have a tank.

[Mr Cob]

Thanks, Ray. If I can't find a decent trade then I might have to just use some of my store credit at the good old LFS to get a nano...not really looking to spend any cash while cashing out on coral.

[reefreak]

Rob sent you a text.

[Zack]

I'm glad someone got those clownfish. That was soooo tempting to setup another tank for them!

[hobogato]

:thumbs_up: :D
