wife, moving, kids in the near future = hobbies taking a back seat for awhile.

thank you for your feedback.

Pics and price are coming, just had to run. will post when I have some time. Thank you for the heads-up that my previous post will be eliminated.

280 gallon tank with stand and sump.

Tons of rock and coral.

Pumps, Deltec skimmer, reactors, etc.

Details to come, but hoping to not have to part out.

I have a brand new one, never used, from Bulk Reef Supply. It is the "Deluxe BRS GFO and Carbon Reactor". I am forced out of the hobby. I would sell it to you for $40. Let me know if you are interested. Thanks,

Bill

I have a few 40lb bags of CaribSea Dry Aragonite Special Grade Reef Sand that I never used. It is still sitting in the bags in my garage. I will sell it to you for $30 a bag. Give me a shout if you are interested.

I have a brand new ROI unit, still in the box, never used. I am forced to leave the hobby so I am not interested in trading, but if you are interested in buying, I can give you a good deal. thanks,

Bill

No problem, here is how you slow them down: you put them in my tank.

ahh, thanks. I have ordered a new one. I appreciate hearing from each of you.

5 to choose from. softball sized to plate size. PM me if interested.

Thanks,

Rug

Appartently, the Price was Right! If you haven't already indicated interest - consider these sold out. If you indicated interest and I haven't gotten back to you, please be patient. I hope to get back to you soon.

I have an Aquacontroller and I have been relatively pleased with it so far.

Well, I did a big water change Sunday and now I have noticed the thermometer for the Aquacontroller seems to be freaking out. The temperature seems to be jumping around 3 to 5 degrees and it says the tanks now at 83 degrees!! - which I knew didn't make sense. So I got the old back up, glass thermometer out to verify (yup, we are sitting comfortable in the mid 70s.

So I adjusted the Aquacontroller so that the gauge would read correct and ran off to work. I am hoping to go home tonight and find that I didn't turn the heater on all day or had the fans on all day if it wasn't needed.

Anyone have any ideas I what happened here? Did the thermometer just go bad? Was is a coincidence with the water changes (which I just can't believe). And Now what do I do? Does anyone have a Aquacontroller thermometer laying around that I can buy?

Please share your suggestions/thoughts/experiences.

Happy Holidays!

I have one for you. $10. its in SW Portland.

Thanks,

Bill

I have a 280 gal. tank right now. My advice, big is nice, but the taller it is, the more painful it becomes. If you are going to go big, don't make the tank too tall. 36" in height (not width as noted above) is often challenging. I speak with experience. And Glass is the only way to go (imo).

SWEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

I used a fish trap to catch my six line wrasse once. Fish trap is the only way I would go to catch that lobster.

Tank looks great.

Looks like you could use a RBTA (naughty)

Let me know (threaten)

I currently use 250 watt DE 14k Phoenix bulbs with Icepcap ballasts and i'm very happy with the coloration of the light.

I run this same set up and I too, am very happy with the coloration (and the price of the bulbs).

Hi Clay,

You are more than welcome. It was nice to meet you. Best of luck- rug aka bill

You are welcome CCR and thank you! I enjoyed your visit and appreciate they ideas we discussed.

Between CCR, brokenzoa, and Jay, all mushrooms are sold. If any of the sales fall through, I will let you know.

Thanks!

CCR: Happy to provide. When would you like to pick up?

All sales are first come, first served. At these prices, I am getting a lot of interest, but once they are sold, they are sold.

I am sorry for the delay, I don't have internet at home so if its after work hours, you will have to wait until the next day. (sheesh, the digital generation has no patience, what would they do without twitter?)

what is the smallest size you have??? How quicky do they split.... I don't want to over welm my 55 gal tank if they are going to go nuts before my eyes!! LOL

The smallest one I have is probably 5 inches in diameter. I had a GIANT, over 1' in diameter) RBTA for several years before it decided to split, so you never can tell when.

Hey' date=' I still have a rock with some mushrooms on it for you too. It's been a crazy couple of months. My girlfriend just got out of surgery about 4 hours ago to hopefully cap it all off. I'll see what day coming up will work for me and get you both....[/quote']

 

Ok, just let me know.

Someone make me an offer. I need to make room...

I am very interested in trading for the services of your BBT.

Cash, ok, trade even better. Either way, I am interested.
