Well I know exactly how you feel, due to an increase in bills, I myself have been going back and forth on shutting one of my 230g tanks down. However it would all depend on how much I could actually sell it for. The extra money would be helpful but I'd rather not take to much of a loss on it.

If I take donw the tank thati have the 150 and replace it with a another tank and stand of smaller footprint the only thing that im going to get is the less of 1 MH and the odd sale of some fish and so oh ya the filling in of the wall too. so unless i get top dollar which i wont i wont be taking it down. so to all that have helped me out with their responses thank you so much to all the close pms that i received thanks for the positive direction and help....


as I would say to others SUCH IT UP BUTTER CUP a little humour lol

On my 220g, before it cracked, I had on only 2 out of 3 metal halides & it looked really good with the center light off & the contrasting lights & shadows.

At Ease Soldier!
As was stated earlier by Anthony you are unfortunately not going to get anywhere near what your stuff is worth, unless you get very lucky and find a buyer who's willing to pay because he/she is in love with your system. If at all possible Mike, hold on to what you've got and try downsizing in smaller areas such as less fish, less food; no SPS, therefore less light, less flow; cut back on the fancy dosing products, etc. at least until things turn to the better for you. Good Luck!
