I've set up a carpet anemone tank and would like to try an old school halide over it.  I dug out an older 250w Aquamedic space light but the reflector is very small and I don't think its providing the spread or PAR that I'm looking for.  I'm hoping someone out there has a 250w setup that includes a ballast and a decent pendant, I'm not worried about a bulb since I would expect to have to purchase a new one.  I'd even be interested in just a pendant since I could probably figure out a way to get it to work with my current ballast with some splicing.  Thanks.

Thank you for putting this together again this year.

Vibrant is the only thing that has ever worked on bubble algae for me.

There's a mini maxi on reef chasers atm.

Thanks but I'm looking for clown hosting carpets like the haddoni, gigantea or mertens.

Cuttlefish has a nice blue one................ am sure for the right price Jeff would let it go.............. am sure you have seen it.................

He won't sell it just yet, but I've been working on him.

I know this is a long shot but I thought that I would see if anyone has a carpet anemone that they would like to part with.  I've set up a tank with a harem of clownfish and I'm only going to have carpet anemones to host them.  Also, even though I visit the local stores fairly regularly let me know if you see any at your local fish store since I don't make it everywhere.  Thanks.

Cool, thanks for doing this.  Let me know how you want payment to cover the order.

I'd be good for 10.

Buy with confidence from Pennywise, he gave me a great deal and even met me halfway since it was quite a long drive. I just picked up a harem today and couldn’t be happier.

I would bump your phophates up to around .05.  Phosphates are needed for the health of the corals.  I noticed when my phosphates bottomed out i would have issues with my SPS.

I agree 100%.  My corals all look better when my phosphates are above .03 and they struggle when they drop below this level.

Sorry guys, I picked this up a few weeks ago.

Did you try the restart function under "net setup"?  That usually gets me back to connected after a brief power outage.  I should also mention that this works on an Apex Classic, I'm not sure if that's even an option on the newer ones.  Also, the default admin username is "admin" and the default password is 1234 if you haven't changed it.

Very nice setup.  I really like the IM tanks and aluminum stands.

What type of live rock is contaminated?  I don't know of any "real" live rock that has been available for many years except for the Florida gulf rock.

Your tank looks great!  Can you share your lighting file? I still can't quite seem to dial in the color I'm looking for.  Thanks. 

I'll take one of each!  Seriously, great looking frags and I'll be hitting you up soon.

There is someone interested in both lights but I'm having a tough time finding a replacement light right now.  I'll let you know if there is one available as soon as I can.

I have two Reefi Unos that I'm thinking about selling and was wondering if there would be any interest in them.  I would like to try out the one of the new Leds like the ATI Straton, Philips Coral Care or maybe the Neptune Sky so these would be up for sale.  One was delivered in late February and was was purchased in March.  They are in excellent condition with absolutely nothing wrong with them and have only been run at 68 watts peak intensity with less wattage used as they ramp up and down.  I have the original boxes and both have the unused hanging kit with them.  I would like to get $275.00 per light.  Let me know if there is any interest and I'll look at ordering a new light.  Thanks for looking.

Thanks for the original post, I wouldn't have ever known about the deal.  I tried all day yesterday and just got the spinning wheel.  I'm buying this for my daughter's system since she only has an RO Buddy currently.

I was just able to add one to my cart and checkout. 

I have no experience with this doser and you've probably seen this, but here is the user manual just in case.

Also interested in the acid trip.  Would love to see some pictures.

Awesome build, looks great.  Are you going to run a custom program on your lights or one of your pre programmed ones?

Good luck with the transfer. It may be just the camera angle but your new 42 gallon tanks looks much bigger than your old 40 gallon Nuvo.

Please put me back in line. We have new lights on two different tanks. Thanks.
