Offer him a tad less in cash, and see if he grabs, I'm sure he does not want to move or deal with it. Looks like ur get'n a deal either way! Prep ur self though, tanks can be keep you busy. You found a great site to help you along though

That tank and stand look incredible! You should jump all over that for 500! That's crazy! I'm coming to FLA so I can grab it before you do, JK. Buy it, buy it, hurry and buy it! Good luck, see you later.

I would personally ditch the sand and soak the rock in a 50/50 solution of bleach and water.

Reusing old live rock?
