    I'll be getting rid of my 5ft 600l at the end of the year, though getting to you in tzaneen may be a problem

    Nicolaas it's a complete setup. Tank with lights (2× t5's and 3×rows led's) , sump with pump and all of this is in a cabinet.Tank used to be a marine setup but changed it to freshwater. I am moving and is building a new bigger tank. Don't have room for this tank.
