  1. Those lights grew some nice coral over the years! Kind of sad to see them go...
  2. So all of this is still around and dump run planned for tomorrow afternoon! Last chance to grab something!
  3. OK - back with some more free stuff including a dual channel Sunlight Supply MH power supply with two retrofit style reflectors (I think I have a couple used radium bulbs for these), Wet/dry style sump set up for an external skimmer with return, DYI Ca reactor chamber, hang off back skimmers - one recric with pump, partially used bucket of salt and a "make your own" frozen food dispenser setup. Pics below. These all need to be gone ASAP and will end up in a dumpster bag if no one gets them! PM me if you can pick up tomorrow or early next week and I can provide pickup address.
  4. Well that is unfortunate but also really interesting to see that the remote piece also RTN'd along with the mother colony. Would argue against simple local conditions but perhaps something that species is more sensitive too as a whole. Alternately, perhaps something released from the RTN mother colony that selectively affects that species. Definitely fascinating even if highly unfortunate.
  5. Will have to check this out for future reference!
  6. Hey all, The time has come to tear down my current 125 build in preparation of listing our house and moving. This will include catching and moving my livestock - including 14 fish. I can do most of this myself except actually moving the tank out of the house (preferably without breaking it) but would be more than happy to entertain ideas, tips, moral support etc. on how best to accomplish this. I have a lot of live rock so plan to start by pulling all of that and partially draining the display so that I can actually catch the fish but then will need to keep them alive until I can transport to their temporary holding tank offsite. Thinking of transporting them in a few lidded buckets for simplicity sake. I only have. a few live coral at this point (don't ask) so will probably cut that off the live rock and re-home ASAP. Will probably just let the rock dry out and recycle as part of a reboot. Also have a layer of sand in the display plus a deep sand bed refegium to deal with. The whole setup (minus the chiller) is located under the stand in my dining room with hard wood floors so keeping the process as spill free as possible is also a priority if anyone as good tricks for that (besides don't drop anything) happy to hear them. No drains nearby so will either have to bucket brigade or find a long stretch of tubing (20 plus feet) to run out the window. My window of time is pretty tight so looking at the weekend after this coming one - Sat/Sun 16th/17th to pull this off. Thanks for any sage advice.
  7. Last item (unless someone wants just the stand) is pending pickup. Will post more soon!
  8. Crazy this didn't sell - such a sweet system and so much thought and time invested in getting it dialed in. Sure you shouldn't just hold onto it until you stop traveling???
  9. Well Kim, you do need someplace to keep the purple tang! Pick this up and you could babysit all my fish for me!
