My fishroom is out of control!!! I wanted all the stuff I have in there, but now that it is in the room I discovered that i am not comfortable with it.
I have decided to keep all the big tanks and dump the smaller ones.
Here is the run down on the rack...
(3) individual stands bolted together and framing supports.
(9) 15g tanks drilled with bulkheads each with adjustable drains and valves on every return in the system
(9) glass lids for each tank
(1) 65g Glass Cages sump with bio-balls
(1) Mag Drive 24 with a 3600gph impeller upgrade...System pumps between 2000gph and 3000gph depending on how you adjust the valves.
(3) mounted 48' shop lights and a case of new T12 bulbs
* all the gravel
* all the plumbing...lots of unions total plug and play!!!!!
This thing is awesome!!!
I am only selling because I have over 1000 gallons of tanks in my fishroom and the room is only 14'X14'.
Whoever buys this will be extremely happy!!!!!! :smt041

Here is a side view. It doesn't take up more than 3' from the wall and that is with room to get behind to service it.

Here is a view from the front
I have $1000.00 invested in it for the rack/pump/tanks/sump/lights/plumbing...
I am asking $800.00
This is a good deal if you want a central system. A protien skimmer rated for 300g is all this needs to be a frag rack. T5 lighting would also help.
This system is also great for any freshwater breeders.

PM me if you have any questions.

lol.
 
Did you get this from a pet store when they went out of business.

Yes I did. Midwest Marine LIfe in Collinsville Il. I helped him build 9 of these systems and all of them worked great!

Sorry about the name bro. I have been Mr.Firemouth for over 3 years and use it on all the boards I post on. I have been breeding firemouths for 25+years and have been really trying the last 7 years thru line breeding to isolate a breeing true strain of albinos.

Here are some pics...
