True if it is a "for sale" thread but this one was "gauging interest" but with the "send me offers" it is getting very close to that point where the mods will close the thread.
You should come up with a price and post it here even if it is a high starting point and you are taking offers. You can post it as $2,000 or best offer and I think you are safe from the mods
even if your best offer is $200

bad algae removal

Whatever I need to kill off in the bristle, bubble, matting algae's micro or other I use kalk paste.
I bought some frags at the March 07 swap and the clean frags that some folks swore up and down they had actually had bubble and green and red threaded algaes. Which tried to take hold in the tank. I made a kalk paste and used a cheap artist brush and painted the stuff on the bottoms of the frags. And then when it started to pop up here and there in the tank. I just shut the pumps down and used a plastic medical eye dropper and put a slurry of hotwater kalk (mix no more than a teaspoon to 1/2 t at a time) on the offending algae and within a day it would go white and in few days would disappear. (pumps were off with lights on for 3 to 4 hours to prevent current from blowing kalk on stuff I didn't want nuked and of course to let it sit long enough to impact the algae)
Now, worth mentioning is that, I dose calcium manually (no drip or Ca reactor on this setup) and can stop dosing a week prior and limit the amount of the kalk work to burn the patches. Otherwise I'd spike the pH and or calcium levels and nuke my milli and acro frags. Which, fortunately I have managed to avoid. So far.
Give it a test run. It's time consuming at first since you have to space out when and how much of it you put down. But it worked for me and I almost have it completely out of that tank and system.

Thanks Yank, I might try pulling some rock out of my tank and running it in QT and slather in kalk paste. Only a few rocks have a ton of it, but all the rocks seem to have it where the light is strongest.

I am looking around the $900 range for the setup. The tank is practically brand new and I know the tank alone goes for 900. The stand and hood are oak and are in execelent shape. Just so everyoen knows I am not gettign out of te hobby. This was my main tank in Florida and I am settign up a new system here in my new house.
