140 Gallon Reef Aquarium and Lots of Equipment - $1000 or best offer (St. Charles, IA)

I'm selling my Reef Tank that never came to fruition; my loss is your gain. I'm located in Saint Charles, Iowa. I work in West Des Moines, so I can meet you if needed.


Most of the parts are brand new and have never had water running through them.


I will sell all for $1000 or individually.


This is well over $3000 worth of equipment; I just don't have the time to complete it. I have pictures of everything listed if you want them.


I'm open to trading for the following:

2. Used car that runs (Honda or Toyota)

3. Used Jon Boat

Sorry, this is my first post and I'm working on getting it formatted better.

 

Basically $1000 takes it all, but I'm also willing to part it out. The water containers are I believe are Rubber maid and have been drilled one at the top and the other at the bottom. My plan was to used one for fresh RODI and the other for mixing salt. The box of PVC includes several large unions, ball valves, elbow, etc. You can email me at jdowney10@hotmail.com for pictures. I will try to post some soon.

 

The location is in the header of the post, but I'm located in Saint Charles, Iowa. Patience, patience.

 

They are food grade order online form US Plastics if I remember correctly.

 

I'm in the process of uploading the pictures to my Skydrive account and will post the link. I work in West Des Moines, so I could meet somewhere as well.

 

Link to pictures added at the bottom of the post. Let me know if you cannot access it.

 

I honestly have never ran water through the sump. It is already plumbed for the tank. I did add the glass baffles. Not the nicest looking thing, but I'm sure it would work.

 

I just wanted to let you know that the black PVC parts are painted with Krylon Fusion that is supposed to be Reef safe (I'm sure there are other opinions). I also have about 15-20' of black flexible PVC as well if you need it.

 

Weekdays after 3:30pm in Des Moines work best, but I could make accommodations for the weekend if need be. $40 is correct.
