well as some of you know my wife and i built a new house this winter {note: not the best time to build a house in upstate New York, lol} and i built a peninsula tank stand in between the livingroom and dinning room light canopy and everything and its been sitting empty ever since..........well a buddy of mine just decided to finally clean out out his basement and get rid of a lot of his equipment so this is what i bought and will go get this Friday

120 gallon oceanic tank {bottom drilled with 2 overflows and returns 1 inch}
120 gallon stand { dont need it but took it anyway}
Acrylic sump for the 120g
large return pump {used for 2 weeks before system was taken down}
2 frag tanks {10 gallon and 7 gallon}
1 RO/DI unit {3 months use} 100 gpd
1 RO unit {NEW} 150 gpd
1 euroreef skimmer C-38 {NEW} this thing is HUGE !!!!!!!!!!
24 " UV light with pump
misc power heads, hoses and shit

1500 bucks for all of it

good start to an old habit ..................i can't wait to get this bear running, the tank will be plumbed down through the floor into a room ive built in the basement where all the filtration, refugium and other tanks will be, some frag tanks, a couple breeder tanks Qt tank and the RO's and mix systems.............i even put a double sink and counter in there with hot and cold running water and a tv for all the hours ill be spending in the "man cave" ....................oh of course a beer mini fridge too

IM SO FRIGGIN HAPPY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
