FS: 29G non-drilled with stand, canopy, lighting and accessories - $150 (pics inside)


I've upgraded to a 125 and no longer need this setup. This tank is not drilled and does not come with any sort of overflow or sump. Here's a list of what is included:

(Act now and I'll even throw in a 50lb bag of Southdown sand good for about a 3" bed.)

1) 29G AGA tank with oak-colored frame
2) Perfecto pine stand, oak color. This stand is all 1x4 and very sturdy. I'd have no problems putting a freakishly tall tank on this stand.
3) Homemade canopy with 64w of T8. Open back for ventilation and also quite sturdy. (details below)
4) Emperor 280 biowheel. I use it without the filter pad, but with the media container for carbon use and large detritus filtration. Easy to clean and quiet.
5) Ebo 150w heater.
6) ViaAqua 360 powerhead. Supplemental flow that won't overpower the tank and only uses 8w. Also very quiet.
7) One big wad of chaeto if you want it.
8) Blue Damsel to help you cycle it.
9) Quality power strip mounted high in the stand and the power cords have been labeled.
10) Mechanical timer for the lights.
11) Reversible black/blue background. Currently installed with the black facing inwards and fastened with electrical tape.

Short of a HOB skimmer, this is everything you need to start up a system.

On with the pics and further details then... Please excuse the sparseness and grunginess of the tank. Most of the inhabitants, rock and cleanup crew have been moved into the new tank.

Full tank shot

Stand (That's a 10G tank you see. A 15 tall will also fit and would be what I'd use if I were to sump this setup.)

Canopy You can see this is very much a DIY setup. That's an electronic ballast meant for 4' t8 tubes driving a pair of Hagen 24" tubes. Each tube is rated for 20w but are doing great at the 32w they are receiving. The tubes are an actinic and a "powerglo". As you can see, coralline and chaeto grow just fine under it. I also had Xenia in here that grew well as well as some zoos. The canopy has not had any stain or finish applied to it.

Damsel Free with purchase. Beautiful fish with striking blue color that shows wonderfully under the tank's lighting, but photographs poorly.

This tank is currently running as you see in these pics. The buyer may want to bring a cooler and be prepared to assist in the takedown. The tank currently is running a crushed coral substrate loaded with bristleworms that can be used to seed the new southdown going with the tank.

The rock you see in the pic is not included. Those pieces are only in there to give the last occupants places to hide.

Please no lowballs.

Thanks!
Dan

Almost 100 views and no one's interested? What do I need to do, drill some holes in it and include a mag5?

Price dropped to $125. Substrate is heading to the trash unless someone speaks up soon and wants it.

Thanks!
Dan

Would you part out stuff? I need a good wood stand for my tank, my metal stand is only 3 months old and its already rusty. I like the stand and canopy.

I'd probably be interested in the tank (depending on size info). That's the two main parts right there...maybe we're on to something?

Yep!

You guys wanting to part this thing out should get together and split it yourselves. I'm not interested in hanging on to the tank if the stand goes.

Thanks,
Dan
