    It saddens me to sell, but we are moving soon, and I've started a new job a while back which is 100times more hectic than my old job, so time for cleaning tanks, shopping for equipment and livestock is out of the question for now.

    So what I've got:

    Setup 1:

    1.5m x 50cm x 56cm (10mm Glass) with Black Perspex trim
    Glass Sliders
    Steel Stand
    Sump Tank (80cm).
    Extra piping, for Plumbing (Old plumbing included but is going to be cut off)
    300W heater
    1.2m T5 light
    Atman 2700L return pump
    Hoses (Including LONG +/- 5m Hose for maintenance and filling)
    Substrate (Silica Sand with some coral mixed in)
    600l/h SunSun Filter
    Digital Thermometer
    Medium size net
    Lots of Rocks
    Around 30 Malawi Mbuna Cichlids (Not sure of all species).
    Also have 6 mixed Fry in my Breeding tank

    Asking R2000 for EVERYTHING, had the tank for around 5 months.

    ----------------------------------------------------

    Setup 2:

    Nano type tank (+/- 50L)
    Black substrate
    Buyo 540L/h filter with extra filter material
    100W Heater
    2x Light fittings with 1x white 6200k T8 Light and 1x pinkish T8 light
    Canopy
    Glass thermometer
    Small Net
    Syphon Piping
    Java Fern
    Valis
    Sand Stone
    6 x Long Fin Zebra Danio
    5 x Glow Light Tetra
    7 x Neons
    1 x German Blue Ram (Had 2, but it seems the remaining (bigger) one stressed the other smaller one out too much and it died).

    All fish are extremely healthy and well looked after.

    Asking R400 for the lot.

    Don't have up to date photo's but here's what I've got:

    ----------------------------------------------------

    Setup 3:

    Breeding/Quarantine Tank (+/- 35/L)
    Bare bottom tank
    Airstone, Pump & Airline
    Boyu Filter (think around 400L/h)
    50W Heater
    2x Clay Pots
    1x Light Unit
    1x glass thermometer
    Canopy

    R250 for the lot.

    Not recent, but gives an idea of when I just got it:

    Please note, if you want the big tank, you will need to bring at least 2 strong men/women along to help you move the tank, I can't help moving the tank and we live on the 2nd floor, tank weighs around 90kg.

    If you have long, strong rope, we can lift it over the balcony.

    If you're a heavy MTS sufferer, you can take all 3 setups plus all my equipment for R2500.

    Please e-mail me if interested or PM:

    Thanks,

    M

    Would love to get the 1.5.
    But other half would kill me an then there would be no one to look after the fish.

    Warn.. these are very good prices, i am sure you will get a buyer soon.

    Thanks dude..

    If he takes the big tank, I'll throw in the quarantine/breeding tank with all equipment and the 6 youngsters as well for free. I.e. Both for R2000. :)

    Okay guys.. lack of response where ever I posted this is killing me. :(

    I'm dropping the price to R1500 for the big tank and I'll include the breeding/quarantine tank for free. This stuff needs to be gone before the 13th. :(

    I've also decided to keep my small bedside tank.

    So if the mods can maybe edit the initial post and topic to display: 1.5m tank, all equipment and livestock + free breeding/quarantine tank and all equipment it would be great.

    Or you can just add this to the main post:

    Sorry Warnoob, I had him look at it. Hes decided to wait a while, hes inbetween moving spaces at the moment and isnt to sure yet if he wants another tropical tank or if he wants to go marine. But I will nudge him again just incase MTS kicks in. Unfortunately I just dont have the space myself right now.

    Price dropped to R1000 for everything.. this is a fifth of what a setup like this will cost you new and I'm including another tank worth close to R400 if not more.

    If I don't have a buyer, I'll have to take the livestock to a LFS and give/sell it to them (which I don't want, want my fish to go to a good home!!!!), then sell the equipment seperately.

    It's not about the money, I need this stuff GONE before the 1st of July guys.

    Really can't believe no one is willing to pay as little as this for everything you're getting... shocking...

    Okay guys..

    I've done some thinking and decided that I'm going to rather keep all my tanks..

    I've spent well over a grand on my big tank all ready and selling it for R1500 less than what I've spent is just plain crazy.

    Thanks.
