Tank and livestock FS

[swayd]

Tank started leaking today and it was a bad bulkhead. I had to drain and put all coral and fish in a tub for now. It's a 50-55 gallon system including the sump and tank. It will come with the stand and all coral. All you need to do is install a new bulk head.

I also want to mention I was dealing with bubble algae and bryopsis.

You can reference my build thread for pictures of livestock

Local pick up in livermore, ca 94551
Asking $350 for the following:

Tank
Stand
Sump
Plumbing
Around 200 zoas
10-13 acros
About 5 chalices
A ricordia Florida
And 3 montis
1 pixie hawk
1 blue chromis

I am keeping the rest of my equipment for a future build. I bought this tank from another member on R2R for $300. I just want enough back to start a 40B build.

Thanks guys, if this doesn't sell by Friday I will probably set it back up so the livestock doesn't stress out too much.

Sorry everyone, I am not shipping. I have had bad experiences shipping and I can not take a loss on any DOA coral. If anyone local is interested please feel free to PM me and I will shoot you my address so you can come and pick it all up.

WOWWOW for the price you had some beautiful pieces in there wish I would have lived in cali.!!!!

 

[swayd]

Thanks man!
I wish I could keep them but I was planning to upgrade tanks and this leak pushed me to do it now! I wish I could have done it slowly but I dont have the space in my apartment to have one set-up cycling while the other holds all of my stuff. Plus the cash I make will go into my new build.
I already have a used 60g acrylic cube with overflow ready to be picked up tomorrow night:xd: I cant wait! Lesson learned and I will be changing the bulkheads no matter what as soon as I get this tank!

 

[fisharefriends]

Yea man you had some really nice ones in there and for that price I would have drove all the way from here to get them maybe whole setup lol .... but where was it leaking from your bulkheads

 

[swayd]

Haha thanks for the kind words. I dont think that drive would have been worth while unless you enjoy road trips lol.
Yeah the bulk head just gave out. I was lucky enough that I had just bought a reactor and was installing it when I noticed a slow drip. I thought, Oh maybe I just splashed water up there! But I couldnt just walk away so I wiggled the drain pipe and sure enough a slow but steady stream of water began to flow! So I just drained it and put all livestock in a 27 gallon tote. It sucks but at least I caught it before it burst all over my apartment floor!

Well at least you saw it before hand before it got worse that's why from now on I always use sch 80 you know it cost more but less headaches... I had two one inch bulkheads that leaked on me put in a sch 80 never had a situation since

 

[swayd]

Im not familiar with those, what are they?

 

[fisharefriends]

Sch 80 bulkheads the 40s are thinner and for some reason give easier .well the threads are thinner as well that's what I think...

 

[fisharefriends]

You could order them from BRS . Look at all there sch 80 stuff...
