ood afternoon everyone!

I want to start by saying I am very grateful for this hobby and the joy it has brought me, but I'm looking to move, and the girlfriend is ready for a ring. The goal is to sell the tank, sump, stand, return, skimmer, lighting, and 90% of livestock so that I can remain in the hobby in some small way, but willing to sell the full setup as one if needed. I'm sorry, but no parting out until the tank is gone.

THE TANK-
This thing really is one-of-a-kind at 52 inch tall tank! With the included shiplap stand it's a towering 80inches!! I love how immersive it feels having such a massive 'wall' of water. The insert was custom designed for this tank using a 3part epoxy resin and shaped around a central overflow. Water actually overflows and runs through the insert, out the bottom of the tank, and to the sump via a 1.25in line. Additionally, there is an emergency overflow through the back (as seen in the top left of the tank). Tank has been up and running for a little over 2 years. Tank dimensions are 52 tall, 12.5 deep, and 20in wide with 1/2in thick glass so about 54gallons.

Sump info:
Again, this was custom sized for this odd tank with 4 sections including a refugium. Dimentions are 11.5 front to back. 36in long, and 17in tall adding about 25 gal to the system volume.

Oh! Nothing stunning for corals. Goal was to have the right side of the pillar as a zoa garden. Fair game to take what you want, the rest I will donate to my local fish store.

I am happy to help you take everything apart, and will build a custom crate to hold everything safely in place during transport. Asking $3000OBO. If still reading please let me know if my price is fair, I think so, but have been off the forum for a few months! :)

Have a great day everyone and happy reefing!

If serious please message! These are just boring photos.

Please ignore the lines on the outside of the tank! :) those pictures were from when I was taking PAR measurements throughout.

Dumb question... How do you clean the glass on that tank? Or do anything in the lower part of it?? That's amazing! :D
You can buy waterproof neodymium magnets and MacGyver a cleaning pad. Magnets are monkey strong. But you may need a pretty good sized one depending on Glass thickness

Yep! That's the trick! Glass is 1/2in.

Side note- I have 4 Ecotech MP10s on this tank. I know they aren't rated for 1/2in glass, but it WILL work as long as the wires are support and not pulling on the motor. :) fun fact for all.

Willing to go lower for just the tank and sump together if you want to use your own hardware. Happy to leave a good chunk of the corals in there also. Say 1000?
