    Ever wanted your dream tank for cheap?  JJ has decided to get out of the hobby all together and he is putting up his legendary tank for sale!  This 380 gallon in-wall monster tank has been well cared for and it has won the Tank Of The Month award on Reef Central back in February of 2009.  LINK
    This is for a package deal only and it will not be sold separately.  $2,500 for everything listed.  His sump alone was $1,800 new!  Here are the items included in the deal.
    Display tank: Custom 380 gallon acrylic tank built by Scott at Aquatic System Design in KC.  86"X30"X36" with external overflows.  The sides and back are black so it is viewable from the front.
    Sump: Custom 130 gallon acrylic tank built by Scott at Aquatic System Design in KC.  72"X36"X16".  This is a sump/propagation tank so you won't need a separate grow out system!
    Flow Pump: 3) Tunze 6200s.  5,283GPH pump with 6200.5 magnets
    Return Pump: Reeflo Dart pump. 3,740GPH maximum flow
    Lighting System: 2) Lumenarcs with 400W XM 20K bulbs and 2 SLS Blue Line ballasts
    Dry Rock: Mix of Tonga and Fiji rock. 300-400lbs
    If interested, please PM him(Double-J) or you can call or text him at 515-554-7493.

    Thanks for posting Sone!
    Let me know if I can answer any questions about the tank or equipment. The sump can also be used as a frag tank in the middle section. The bottom has stands to support egg crate. I will also throw in another Dart pump as back up but it does have a small leak on the 2" output where the union was glued. Again let me know if you have any questions. I have a light hanger/canopy (see in the background of the first picture) with a icecap 660 ballast I will throw in. 
    Side note: I'm also looking for a small ~1/3 HP drop in (preferred) or in-line chiller.  
    Thanks
    J.J.

    So have you downsized to something smaller? Sorry to see you take this down. It was a beautiful system!

    It's been like that from when I got it, the guy said it might of had some dirt in the seam when glued which caused it but says it wasn't an issue and hasn't been for 3+ years. Nice catch though, had forgotten about that
