    Swapped out my Marineland 75 gallon (corner overflow) for a reefer 350. I built the stand and canopy. They are very study, but have a couple dings from moving them. Sump is a 20 regular with 2 chambers plus bubble trap (1/4” glass inserts). Back wall of tank is painted black (some paint chips from magnets), but can easily be scraped off.

    -Tank was $250 from Adam’s Aquatics 12/30/15.
    -Sump was $20 (Petco) plus $90 for baffles (Kinman Glass).
    -Stand was around $150 to build.
    -$510 invested in these items, plus labor to build.

    You will need:
    -bulkheads – the original were pretty gross, so threw them out.
    -vinegar and razor blades to clean it…I started, but gave up, hence the FREE below.
    -Plumbing.
    -The other usual stuff.

    All of this can be yours for FREE! You just have to show up when you say you will to get it (by this weekend preferably)… If you bring me beer or $20 to buy beer, that’s cool, too.

    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Hi All,
    Unfortunately the first person (BioTeacher) has not responded to me since 3/2 (multiple PM's sent including a deadline of today at noon to hear back). I am sure something came up, no hard feelings. That being said, I really need this out of my garage by Saturday evening (17th). Here is who else reached out:
    @Bennyd87@Bennyd87 (9:29 am)
    @tje22@tje22 (12:57 pm)
    @Dustin Mcaninch@Dustin Mcaninch (1:38 pm)
    @red@red (6:10 am on 2nd)
    If any of you still want the tank and other stuff, please respond by midnight tonight. That should give everyone time to get this and have a chance to write back. Requirement is it has to be picked up by Saturday evening. I will go by the order above if multiple respond, but again, have to respond by midnight tonight. If anyone else wants it, please let me know. If none of the above do, I will go by response time.

    I also have ~100 lbs of reefcleaners rock (cost me $180 in Jan '16). It needs bleached/washed, but otherwise is in good shape. It's available for $50 to whomever gets the tank. If that person doesn't want it, I will list it separately.
    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Hi Stew, I didn't realize you were interested based on your first comment (obviously looked like it was already gone though), so will put you on the list (2nd spot, response at 10:20am). As long as @Bennyd87@Bennyd87 doesn't reply by midnight wanting it, it's all yours.

    No problem. Would still prefer it going to a good home.
    Thanks for the quick reply.

    @Bennyd87@Bennyd87 PM'd me and said he still wants it. I have asked him for 100% confirmation that he can get it by end of day Saturday. I have my floor epoxy being fixed Sunday, so has to be gone. Will confirm as soon as I hear back.
