Hoping to sell my 5-year-old, established reef tank (with all the goodies) in 1 shot. I have to relocate rather quickly for a new job so pricing aggressively as this tank has to go!
Tank is located in New Fairfield, CT (near Danbury).
The Tank:
Equipment:
Lighting is a T5 LED Combo for the best of both worlds! It includes:
Coral:
Fish:
The tank also includes about 200 lbs of live rock and live sand although I would dump the sand and start fresh.
If you price everything out, you’ll see this is a very good deal (lights alone were more than what I’m asking) but it just has to go quickly. Really hoping to not have to part everything out as I just don’t have the time.
Over the last 6 months, the tank hasn’t received the attention it deserves as I’ve been crazy busy traveling for work and have struggled to keep up with it. Because of this, I’m now battling a little hair algae. I’ve started to run carbon and GFO and have been keeping up with maintenance in the hopes of cleaning it up for a quick sale but as a buyer, I would dump anything with hair algae prior to setting it back up.
Happy to answer any questions, provide any additional information, or have anyone over to check it out.
Pictures were all taken 1/15/24 and are current.
Thanks for looking!

Tank is located in New Fairfield, CT (near Danbury).
The Tank:
- Red Sea Reefer 750 XXL in black which is a 165 gallon tank and heavy. So bring a truck and buddies!
- 40-gallon long tank made into a sump with baffles
- Custom black stand made by local wood worker and painted to match
- The tank has a small chip in the front which has been repaired. I’ve kept a digital thermostat over it to cover the additional black caulk
- Separate ATO holding tank fits in the cabinet
Equipment:
- Reef Octopus Classic 225 Space Saver Skimmer.
- Apex Controller with energy bar and all probes
- Additional Apex EB8 Energy Bar
- 2 different Apex DOS’s (4 pumps..I use 1 for dosing Alk and Cal and the other for automatic water changes)
- Apex Dual Reservoir
- Tunze Osmolator Auto Top Off System
- Mixing station which includes 2 50 gallon drums with external pump. Use primarily to fill up top off tank and for automatic water changes but can be used for manual water changes as well.
- 2 Jebao SCP 70 Sine Gyres and Jebao wavemaker (I forget which model). On 1 of the gyres only half of it works and should be replaced.
- Test kits which include 2 Hanna Checkers (Phosphate and Alk)
- GFO/Carbon Reactor
- Fish Guys 5 stage RODI unit with Digital TDS Meter
Lighting is a T5 LED Combo for the best of both worlds! It includes:
- Aquatic Life 61” T5/ LED Combo with 4 T5 lights
- 3 Kessil AP700 lights!
Coral:
- Giant Red Montipora that is shelving and the centerpiece of the tank. Serval pieces have fallen off and are starting to grow separately
- Blue encrusting Montipora (I believe… it’s been a while)
- Green Star Polyps
- Pink Stylophora (again, I believe) that has grown like a weed all over the tank. This has started blenching recently but is coming backpl
- Hammer Coral I count 15 heads
- Large Red Acan
- Green Duncan coral
Fish:
- Salfin Tang
- Yellow Tang (yes the tangs get along. Have lived together for years)

The tank also includes about 200 lbs of live rock and live sand although I would dump the sand and start fresh.
