150 Deep Dimension for sale in future

I have a Marineland 150 gallon Deep Dimension cube (36x36) with the stock stand and canopy I will be looking to unload. I purchased it from a member on here. The stand has removable sides and is incredibly cool. The canopy has multiple options for opening it but I will say the hidden hinges do have some rust. It also has fans added that I am not using as I run LED's. The tank itself is reef ready and has one scratch I am aware of on the right side but otherwise the glass is in very good shape. The plastic rim does show signs of wear from the canopy going on and off but otherwise everything is in solid shape.





Here is the thing. I need to first find a smaller tank. I purchased this with the idea it would go one place in my house but that did not work out. I have tried to run it in my basement but I simply do not have a good way to get water down there and it has made maintenance of a 150 gallon tank a real hassle. As a result I am experiencing less than stellar results and I am finding myself more stressed than excited about the tank.





The reason this is listed as future is because I have some very healthy fish in there I need to rehome or move to the new, smaller tank that I can locate near plumbing. I don't know how quickly I will find a nice tank as I don't want to invest a bunch more money at this point...probably looking at something like a 45 or 60 cube, or maybe a 75/90 gallon.





I am adding this post before it is ready as kind of a way for people to PM me if they want to be contacted first when it is ready to go. I will probably be looking for around 4-5 hundred for the tank, stand and canopy depending on how cheaply I can get into another tank. It is heavy and it will take 3 of us at least to get it upstairs though I am glad to help move it. I rented some glass suction cups when I took it down there. Just drop me a PM if you think you might be interested, otherwise I will bump this when it is actually drained and ready to go. There should be some pics in the photos thread but I could definitely take more. Thanks!

 

Thanks everyone for the posts and pms. I have been traveling unexpectedly this week and will be out of pocket thru Wednesday but will try and return messages over the next few days. Sorry!

 

I am bumping this back up just to see if there are any interesting tank trades that might let me unload this cool tank. It just does not fit where I wanted it to go and I am doing a worse and worse job keeping it up. I still can't just sell it outright because I have 3 fish and live rock in there waiting for me to switch tanks and nowhere to put them. I am pretty specific in what I am looking for:

Prefer black trim and nice stand with either a 60 cube, or standard 75, 90 or 125 (would be perfect) in good condition and reef ready or drilled. I might consider a trade straight up for the right setup. PM me if you have any decent options otherwise I will post this back up when I finally find a good setup and can move my neglected livestock.

 

I thought about seeing if they would apply credit towards that great 125 used setup but I know they prefer to keep the lights with the system and I just don't need those. Maybe I will reach out to them. Thanks Waverz, I have a crazy busy night but will try and PM you tomorrow. I really do prefer to stick to the Cedar Rapids/Ia City/Waterloo area.

 

Haha, sorry about that..I totally thought evansdale was Des Moines for some reason. I am a dork.

 

I appreciate it but probably not. I need something that can span 72 inches or I really want to downsize but thanks for checking!
