135 Gallon Cichlid Setup
I may be willing to part this out so someone can get the tank if the price is right.
The full setup includes:
135 gallon Oceanic tank
Oceanic Stand painted white and setup for a room divider setup
15 or so Mbuna (and 20 or so babies that I'm not including in the count)
3 Frontosas (they actually get along quite well with the Mbuna)
2-3 Albino Bristlenose Plecos
a 220 watt Power Compact Light (only 3-4 months on bulbs)
2 Fluval 304 Canister Filters
2 250 or 300 watt heaters(I don't remember but they work)
2 air pumps and 2 air valve/spliter setups
All of the sand and rockwork as shown in the photographs.
This tank is quite established and is loaded with Malysian Trumpet snails and fish. This is a very interesting setup, that I have had lots of fun with; however, I can no loner afford the power bills associated with three big tanks.
I'd like to get $500 for everything, but I guess I can negotiate. If I start splitting things up, I'd like $300 for the tank and stand.
Anyone interested or know any friends that are interested? I am located on the I-85 corridor halfway between Atlanta and Charlotte.
If I don't hear from anyone soon, I am throwing it up on eBay. Please contact me via e-mail if at all possible...superdodge AT superdodge.com
Anyway, here are the pictures. They are pretty blurry, but you can get a good idea of how many places there are for the fish to lay claim to. The long tubes are where the Fronts and the larger Mbuna hang out. The babies tend to dig tunnels under the caves and the normal Mbuna stake out the normal size rock caves. if anyone has any questions, just let me know.
