Not sure what happened and what you need, but i found this on SoCalireefs, not sure if its available, shows pending. $300 for 90 gal tank, stand and sump is a great deal. I asked if it was still available, waiting on response. i can help pick it up for you if needed too. I got some salt too. LMK..

Tank, Stand, And Sump

FT/FS Custom 90 Gallon Aquarium, Custom Stand And Custom 40 Breeder Sump. Had It Running For Almost 3yrs. Decided To Down Grade To Smaller Tank. Must Take All Three, Will Not Part Out. Tank Has Black Plasti Dip Background On Outside Of Glass. Stand Is Painted Black. Custom Sump Has Five...

Sorry guys jus finished cleaning everything up and setting up 2 small spare tanks I had for my fish and coral. Fish are all okay corals are ok for now hopefully they stay good as The sudden change in flow lighting and water chemistry etc is probably not ideal for them. @revhtree my tank sprung a huge leak from the bottom seam hidden by the rubber trim. I was able to catch it after about 7 gallons leaked all over my apartment. @tricky_tran thank you so much for all the care and concern wish I saw your message sooner to save you the work my apologies! I plan on putting an order for a AIO tank tomorrow after i have some rest LOL. @Fishy65 i been good very busy lol I jus silently creep on here but hope everyone is well! @fishguy242 @MERKEY @Erin O @sfin52 @LRT etc stay tuned for the new and improved build thread haha!

I assumed it was a leaking tank and remembered that tank for sale on SoCaliReefs where i creep on every so often.

Oh man so sorry to see this. If I was closer I'd give you a tank and equipment for holding.

Good new that everything is ok for the moment. A little light and environment change is better than losing it all!

If there's anything we can help with via snail mail don't hesitate to ask!

YOU GOT THIS

Missed you SPLAM!!!!

 

[MERKEY]

Hows the tank situation?

 

[FlexingFishSticks]

That’s some beautiful splam! Oh man tank situation is lame right now I have a 20 gallon cube and a 10 gallon cube holding my fish and coral for now. I got my gf to agree on potentially the new reef lx from waterbox as long as it’s white however it’s like been out of stock so patiently waiting...

 

[MERKEY]

Steps in the right direction for sure!

Good vibes sent on the tank being in stock soon!

Fast forward today and my tank is doing great ! Unfortunately like most on here I’ve had some ups and downs some losses and victories. My candy cane didn’t make it I had 2 cleaner shrimp that kept picking at it which didn’t help and it also had some Aiptasia on it so I removed it from the tank along with the cleaner shrimp back Tk the LFS they went ( no regrets). My blue spot jawfish went carpet surfing despite having a lid he managed to shoot one the one tiny opening I had....‘‘twas a very sad day...other than that things have been good! My tank parameters are always spot on and consistent. Here are some most recent shots of my tank! Thank you for following along in my journey greatly appreciated oh and there’s my dinner currently ;Woot
