65 gal teardown items for sale

[TimGentry]

Well I have most of the equipment from the 65g cleaned and will be up for sale including:

65g tank(3yrs old, good condition) 36X18X24 asking $160.00.

20g custom sump made for me by Steffen. (good condition). asking $75.00

AquaC EV 120 skimmer with mag 5 pump. The only thing wrong with this skimmer is I dropped the cup while doing the tear down and cracked it. doesn't leak and crack is at the top of the cup. It is repairable or you can buy a new cup online for $40. Otherwise the skimmer works fine. I was going to ask $190-$200 but since you may want to replace the cup. Asking $150 as is.

Aquatic Life 36in T5 HO model 420036 Light set. This is in good working order and has the built in timer for the 700+, 420/460 actinics and moonlight LEDs. Asking $175. Two of the 4 moonlight LEDs are out right now and are replaceable for $16 ea.

Approx 75lbs Figi Live rock. $2.00lb.

40lb of prewashed Aragonite Sand: See the Link:http://theculturedreef.com/sand-video.htm

would it be ok if i was to do only like 30pounds?

[TimGentry]

Yep. You can have as little or as much as you want.

[egq]

Sweet! I think i will do the 30 pounds ....

[TimGentry]

I'll be out of town for a couple of days but if you want to buy some you can come over and pick out what you want over the weekend

[egq]

sounds good! just let me know when you are back in town..

Tim i would give the stuff a good vinegar bath and cleaning and take photos of the stuff to post. Happy selling

[TimGentry]

Most of it has already had a vinager bath. Be back in town on Friday. I'll get some pics then

[egq]

what does the vinegar bath do?

[pnavarro170]

Vinegar cleans stuff like you wouldn't believe. Calcium build ups like coralline algae and all other gunk will almost melt away if you let stuff soak in it a while. Great for cleaning power heads and pumps also. Which should be done ever 3-6 months

[egq]

100 percent vinegar... or like a 1 to 1 parts water/vinegar ?

[915MANG]

Yeah I just dis that on a Rio I use for mixing salt. Stuff worked like a champ. I let it sit for 3 days. Everything fell off just by swooshing it the bucket.

its white distilled vinegar, and is very cheap, 1 to 1 ratio is what i usually do but you could do less. and even after several hours soaking you can take out and scrape most of it pretty easily if not just overnight. Keeps your flow and efficiency at your highest. Also not a bad idea when you break bigger stuff down, like tanks.

T5 Lighting system-$145

Figi Live Rock-$1.50lb

after the situation I have been going through with the Ich, I'm almost tempted to keep the 65g and set it up again as my quarantine tank. I did say ALMOST! I just really don't like the idea of taking care of 2 tanks.

[eluevano]

Im interested in the rock and sump, if still available...

[TimGentry]

Yep. Still for sale.
