I’m ready to buy: Prot Skim, MH+actinics, Tunze Streams, Sump, cooling fans, heater+
As mentioned in a previous thread, I have begun my move toward a bigger tank by purchasing a 150G this last weekend. Now I need everything else. Accordingly, I solicit your offers for any equipment you have lying around that you think might be useful, because I need a lot of stuff.
My equipment buying philosophy: Well of course we all want the very best, but if I can get decent, though not ideal stuff, at a great price, then I will go that route and maybe upgrade down the line. So, what I need:
- Lighting, my ideal preference: 3 x 250W MHs, electronic (Icecap?) ballasts, 14K bulbs, Luminarc reflectors. But of course I will settle for a much different set up if the price is right.
- Protein Skimmer, my ideal preference, BK, reeflow, deltec, etc. But hey a solid custom rig would certainly be workable. Also need the pump to power it.
- Powerheads: Tunze streams of some sort would be great, but as always, I'm flexible.
- Sump with refugium, no more than 36 inches long and narrow enough to fit in a stand for a 18†wide tank. Custom desired? You bet.
- Cooling fans, maybe and DC converter for my hood
- 300W titanium heater, or maybe 2 heaters around 150 each? Heck, I don't think my heater ever comes on, maybe I can go smaller.
- DJ power board, yeah I love the one I have, but I need one more.
- Plumbing supplies: 1 inch bulkheads and various fitting needed, but Im not sure exactly what yet. My plumbing advice thread is still in progress.
- Might need an upgraded return pump, Currently using an Ocean Runner 2500 from Aquamedic. Iwaki, Panworld, etc would be nice but I havn’t done my research. Basically, I need a bit more flow than my OR.
- Might need a pump suitable for a Close Loop with a single 1†supply/input line
So, Im open to offers, and I will bring cash to the next FMAS meeting.
