What are you looking for in trade?

Right now anything but livestock. I have my tank, my stand, and my lights. I want to be fair in the trade, or at least make us both happy.

Was copper ever used in them?

Can't say 100% no, as I am not the original owner. The person who had them before me was a FW breeder, so I am fairly certian it hasn't been. I can say for sure it hasn't been in the last 3 years.

What size bulkhead are they drilled for?

I am not sure how they are measured but I have one of the correct size bulkheads and it connects to 3/4 PVC.

Thanks Ryan

Your welcome, and feel free to ask any other questions you may have.

I think it all depends on what you want. You can build one or just buy a tank and put dividers in it yourself. If you are on a budget I would just get a tank and put baffles in it they work great. Are you wanting to set up a fuge under there to? There are a bunch of options to choose from. Good luck!

Spectra,

(Sorry don't know everyone's real names yet).

Which of the three tanks above would work best?

If by "fuge" you mean refugium, (I think you do, but not sure), then yes I am planning on that also.

I have a feeling that this tank/setup will be with me for a while. But I am not against upgrading equipment later. But that doesn't mean I want a piece of cr@p right now either.

(Mods: Don't know all the rules written and unwritten yet. Appoligies in advance if wrote anything inappropriate)

I have four of these. I bought them for a FW project that never got done and now won't get done.

They are painted blue on the outside bottom and outside back, the back is drilled for overflow with a bulkhead fitting.

Hoping for $75 each obo. Would appriciate equipment trades as well. I am just starting the setup stage of my first reef tank.

Kris,

Any pictures of your sump?

I realize you may have posted them elsewhere in the forums, so even a pointer to them would be helpful.

Hello all,

After about 30 years as a FW guy, with close too 100 successful species spawned, and numerous plants propogated I have decided to give SW a try. Not just a "Fish Only" tank, but a reef.

I inhereted a set of 4 55W CF's in a hood, with a matching stand and a 55 gallon tank. I want to go with a sump, but not sure what the best situation would be. I have read that a 20 gallon sump would be good for a tank this size. So now I have several options.

1) standard 20 will fit in/under the stand, but is only 24 inches long.

2) 20 Long is 30 inches long sill fit in the stand

3) a 24 gallon tank, its 12X12X39. Long, but short and skinny.

Would you "gurus" please help the newby deside?

Man, if I only had an extra 1200 laying around.

Oh yeah, I am married and have kids, so that will never happen. LOL

Doran

Is this a required item for a reef tank? Or something that makes maintaining the ecosystem easier?

Doran

Hello all,

Ok I know this is a WAY nooby question, but someone mentioned a "Calcium Reactor". What is that?

Doran
