I came across someone who was moving this weekend that wanted to clean out thier stock of aquarium *stuff*

I picked up a oceanic 180 with a oak stand, and lid
Ultraviolet sterilizer
Wet/Dry Filter setup (DIY Partial)
Protein skimmer
1 Clown Fish
1 Koran Angel

55 Gallon Saltwater Setup with all filters an heaters, 4 100 watt bulbs

50 Gallon 1/4" thick setup with some odd filters and misc fish equipment
10 Gallon

90 pounds of live rock
55 pounds of live sand

20 odd plastic plants
and a bucket of odds and ends PH test kits, Stress/ Amo Lock, Python setup, ect.

All this for under 500$

I have been cleaning my heart out and got one of the tanks setup. I was able to save about 30 gallons of water from his setup to keep the fish going, and hopefully it will go. The fish are doing well on hour 3 and the water parameters are reading great.

I hope to have the 180 setup sometime in the next month, but that will be some planning and work on getting it all going again. In the mean time i have the 55 setup with all the rock in it to keep it a live with three aquaclear 70's.

I was doing freshwater again and didnt plan on going with salt/marine until I got the fresh going well, but this deal was too good to pass up..

Thoughts?
 
All that for under $500? Wow that is an amzing deal! Can't wait to see pics!

Just have to be patient, and keep your eyes open.

If you are in south dakota there is a guy near you that makes tanks out of starphire glass that you could get a 180 with black back starphire 3 sides for $600 brand new.
 
Indiana: The home of good deals:)
 
Never say never, they come around every great once in a while.

I originally called the guy to pick up one 55 gallon tank. He said he was tired of it all and to take everything for one price. I immediately went to the local uhaul and rented a truck, took up my truck and loaded them full of stuff.

So now my garage is full of fish stuff. Thankfully i have a full basement to slowly move it all into.
