Hi AC members,
First let me start out by saying, I have been a member of this forum for a very long time and I have learned so much from everyone here. For the last few years, I have closed down my Discus Breeding Room due to work and had all my equipment is storage in hopes of picking it back up, but it seems that since my move, I do not think I will have time and will have to continue this awesome hobby at a much later time. So I am selling all of my aquariums, equipment and gear, sorry no more fish and plants, ( I sold them a few years back to a friend prior to my work relocation ). But what I do have are tons of equipment and tanks and my personal collection of showcase driftwoods
I wanted to post all of it here for dirt cheap before craigslist or ebay for my fellow AC members
I will cater to the first PM sent then go down the list according to when the PM was sent, Also i am posting it here first for my fellow AC members for 4 Days then I will post them on craigslist and Ebay. I prefer for all of them to be purchased at once but have priced them individually, please check bottom for price of the entire thing if you buy all of it.
NOTE: I will start replying to PM sale inquiry on the 4th day prior to being placed on craigslist to give chance to anyone who wants all of it, first PMs takes priority after that, Im sorry everyone but first person to PM me to buy the ENTIRE listing will get priority and will be placed as pending sale. Feel free to PM me any questions or inquiries, I will asnwer them as best I can.
First some photos of my Discus Hatchery project with some of the tanks and the driftwood and lace rocks.
I have tested all of the aquariums for water leaks and tested the equipment for a four days and will note details on description
Items For Sale:
Tanks:
1. Tall 48G Tank with stand no top (30L x 12W x 31H) - $40
in good condition, holds water, has a tiny chip on upper corner outside but doesn't affect the seal, has some tiny scratches here and there but not really visible with water.
2. 31 Gallon Brooding Tank no stand comes with light no top (24L x 12.5W x 24H) - $15
Condition is Fair because the plastic has some tiny cracks on it, it holds water and would probably be a good hospital tank or for raising young discus, thats the tank I used pictured above with my young discuss after separating them from parents.
3. 20 Gallon Bare Bottom Tank with lights and Lid (24L x 12D x17H) - $30 Each (2 available)
It is in absolute great condition, Well taken care of, never placed any gravel and used only for breeding pairs with sponge filter, Lights are great also with a nice spectrum, pictured with discus above.
4. Eclipse 12 Gallon Acrylic System - $10 Each (2 Available) take both for $15
Not the best of shape, but when filled with water and cleaned its pretty nice still, has some spidering outside the wall (kinda typical with acrylic), it works and functions and fully tested comes with brand new filter. Great for small fry if you put a sponge right on the intake. comes with bio wheel on each. the lid plastic hinge is broken on both tanks but works when you place the lid on top.
5. 55 Gallon Acrylic Project tank, Sea Clear no lid, comes with a bare wood stand 2x4's and Pentair Scratch Removal Kit (barely used) (48L x 13W x 20H) - $60
This tank is great, it has some hazing, I started this project but did not have time to finish, I started on the top part of the tank, when filled with water, the micro scratches disappears. If someone wants to continue this awesome project it would be great. Comes with the pentair acrylic scratch removal kit that I purchased seperately awhile back and barely used.

and Ill throw in an inline 300W hydor (untested not pictured but i know it works)
Details are I took great care of them, I tested them along with the equipment, with thermometers, some of them need calibrating, its a of by a few degrees but works great!
7. Testing Kits - Seachem Prime unopened 1 Gallon - Plant Tabs, way more than 200 tablets in there for sure, thermometers - $80 for all in the Picture
the prime is still unopened bought it for $75 online, most of the testing kits are unused or barely used, the one i used most is the Laborette. The plant tabs are filled to the brim because I combined containers. The Digital thermometer needs batteries but i know it works.

without LIP - $15
11. SHOWCASE DRIFTWOODS -$50 for ALL
I was gonna price them individually as it took me awhile to find alot fo these pieces. the malaysians and african mopani I purchased. I used to think "why would I buy driftwood, its just wood but after awhile when you want to create an aquascape, its really a finders fee your paying for and the uniqueness of the piece. I want to sell as a bulk
theres 3 large malaysian driftwood in the pile thats absolutely stunning, you will not regeret putting these guys in your tank
