90 gallon purchased on craigslist.

Ok so I am moving in 2-3 weeks and I wanted to upgrade my 65g into a 90g and I finally found a perfect tank for the right price.

Here is what I got:

90g corner drilled tank (needs new drain pipe, maybe new return as well)
Stand
Canopy
8 bulb T5 Nova Extreme HO 400W of Raw power!!!!
29g sump
Quete one 4000 return pump
Euro Reef Skimmer (dont know if it works and I wont be able to use it do to size but I can sure as hell sell it)


All this for 420 delivered!

I think its a steal with that kick ass light.

Just have to clean the sump out and replace the plumbing and will start setting it up right after I close on the house.

I will post pictures in few days.

Also the guy have me a 5gallon bucket full of sand, if I mix that with play sand would that work? I know some of you are against using play sand but I have been doing research and its mostly ok.

 

great deal! I love craigslist.

 

That is a great deal. However, you may want to replace the quietone pump with something a little more reliable. I would try to make the euro reef skimmer fit.

 

I am almost certain it is the same exact model number that I use now and I love it. I mean we all have opinions and maybe you just had a bad experience, but my pump on my current set up has not failed or made any noise...

 

I now have 2 older quiet one 4000 pumps on 2 different setups and have never had a single problem with either. If its not broken, dont bother fixing it. nice find on the tank, thats a great deal especially including delivery.

Wow now that's a steal! just the light alone is worth it. lol great find.

 

Great Deal...gotta love Craigslist.

 

Great deal! Craigslist is great but I'm always one call or email behind the best deals lol.
I think the QuietOne pump are reliable. I had a Danner give up on me and the company sent me a QO 4000 instead of the new Danner I ordered. I just decided to keep it and haven't been displeased with my decision.
Grats on your deal!

 

Great catch! how the heck did you get it delivered, last one I bought I had to drive 100 miles to get it.

I have had a quietone pump running for 2 years now on my return for my reef tank and never had any issues.

Also have had one on my pond for 3 years, which is a year longer that the little giant one that I had last.

 

Thank you guys. Well I did go about 35 miles to look at it and the guy had a work van so we just placed everything inside the van and he followed me to my house.
