equipment for sale Blacksburg

[mbort]

Have the tank torn down. Sump, fuge, and rubbermaid downstairs still running.

Equipment for sale (all prices for LOCAL PICKUP ONLY .. I don't want to ship most of this stuff):

120 AGA reef ready, newer style with back overflows, 1.5 years old, I'm the only owner and purchased it new $200

Aquastarlight 2x250 MH fixture w/ hangers, 2x20k AB bulbs (one is only ~2 months old), rewired with an external Sunlight Supply Blue Wave VII dual magnetic HQI ballast (the original wiring and ballast had problems, I used extremely high T wire internally and made it safe) $300

Icecap 430 + 3x4 foot URI actinic bulbs (only a few months old) & waterproof endcaps (also new) + 2x4 foot T5 actinics + T5 reflectors + waterproof endcaps $175

I will have 2 Tunze 6000 Streams + multicontroller and photosensor for sale next week.

Also lots of heaters, powerheads and other pumps, Caribsea sand, Rubbermaid Brutes, and lots of other supplies available soon.

Let me know if you are interested in anything mbortner@vt.edu

Livestock left:

~50 lbs live rock ($2/lb)
2 green digi frags (free)
I was able to get the purple monti cap cleanly off of the overflow in 1 large piece attached to a nice rock ($20).

Thanks,
Mike

No big deal, but can you get pic of aquastar lighting or let me know a website to look at it?
I am looking for fixture-- just not in any hurry. Seems my boat is trying to swallow, my money right now.. But for a good deal..

it's the aquastarlight future same as this but white:

here it is *way* back in the day over my tank. i loved being able to raise it up and work in the tank.

considering the cost of the ballast new has ~doubled recently, $300 for all that is a fantastic deal.

Thanks Matt. Wow, I didn't realize that the ballast alone is now $450 plus ship!

And if anyone is interested in stuff, I don't check pm or these posts often (usually). Please send a note to mbortner@vt.edu
