New tank?? 280ish

[8BALL_99]

Thanks, I built three islands with a wide valley in the middle of the tank. But same as always as I added stuff and stuff grew you end up with a Wall for the most part. The cave is the only part that really still stands out. I like it cause its large enough that even when fish hang out in it you can still see them very easy.

Small Update. I got around to getting my shelf Done! I went ahead I got some granite cut for it. It wasn't that expensive since the pieces were pretty small.

Anyone looking for a big tank? Or a 92 gallon corner setup? I'm thinking very seriously about taking my tanks down.. My four year old dumped a huge amount of flake food in my tank several months back which pretty much nuked all my corals. He did it one evening so it went till the next night before I caught it. Needless to say by then it was pretty nasty. Most of my fish lived through the ordeal though. Tanks have just been sitting there jugging along with fish only since.. Thinking about putting the fish in my office tank and taking my whole system at home down. After seeing all of Johns tanks I help him setup destroyed in the tornado. Then having all my corals nuked shortly after I just don't think my hearts in it anymore.

I have a TON of stuff, but first I'm going to see if there is any intrest in the tanks before I start taking everything down.. Plenty of pictures of everything in this thread. Again I have No corals now and I'm keeping the fish. It would just be Live rock and all the equipment..

I hate to see the beautiful tanks taken down. You and your tanks have been a great inspiration for many people. I hope you reconsider. You may feel differently in a little while. Seeing my botched-up DIY rigs or beaslbob's ridiculous contraption may get you worked up to show us up?

lol Hey Tomoko, I haven't 100% decided yet. But I'm pretty sure there going to come down. I have been holding off thinking I'd just keep them fish only for a while. Then maybe get back in to corals.. But really I don't care much for the fish only. So I pretty much for the past six months I haven't paid them any attention. Its like taking the trash out. I run through the motions and move on.. Shannon has a Ton of plants in there and would love the space under the solar tubes. I traded our Murano in for a diesel truck for me couple months ago. So with those two big trucks in the garage and all my other stuff I could really use the room!

I'm still proud of the setup. I really haven't seen any I like better. Its worked very well and really hasn't changed much since I first built everything. Other then just replace things as needed.

Ok guys, I'm going to start parting my system out. Going to give local reefers first shot before I start posting on the for sale section.
I've got 2 aquamedic kalk 1000 stirrers Both work great and each one will come with a new motor in the box. I bought spares and just never needed them. 150 each

I'm not sure what the tanks are worth. The 92 would probably be 500 for the tank stand and canopy another 30 for the sump. If you wanted the reflector and 250 watt Icecap electronic ballast add another 100. The reflector alone cost 130. The skimmer is a ASM G4+ New I guess they cost around 470ish So I'd want about half that say 230. Say 50 for the oceans motion. So that what 900 for all the 92 gallon equipment.

The big tank was/is pretty expensive. As in just the tank was 3600 bucks. Even at half that its not cheap. I'd want probably 1700 for the tank and Sump. The sump is 100 gallons. I'd rather sell the sump with it cause you would have to have a pretty large tank to be able to put the sump under it..

I've got a ton of live rock. Not sure what the going rate is for it is I was thinking 5 a pound. I'd like to get the rock out of the displays before I sell it. Just cause I don't want to have a land slide in the display trying to get to a certain piece..

I've got a couple of 40 gallon breeders drilled on one end. 50 each.

H&S A200-1260 external skimmer. They run around 1000 new I'd like to get 450 for it.

I've also got a couple of Mh pendants two lumarc 3 reflectors and 3 or 4 250 electronic ice caps and a 400 watt electronic coralvue ballast. 4x36 T5 retro kit. I'll have to check on prices for that stuff Also have a Aqua controller 3 plus expansion module and a couple of DC8. Couple of Mp40 power heads. I have one of the Tunze power heads like in the thread and the wave maker for the aqua controller. I have to check prices on that stuff as well or if someone wants to make me an offer on it. I'd rather sell stuff as I go vs trying to break everything down and find a spot for it. I'm already limited on space in the garage lol. My live stock is going to my office tank other then the live rock. I'm sure I have varies other things but I list them as I go..

Got to looking and small update..
I have 4 maybe 5 250 Icecap electronic ballasts. One is my spare and is up on the shelf so I need to test it. 50.00 each
I've got 3 of the Lumenarc reflectors 50.00 each
2 Icecap 250/400 HQI Pendants 80.00 each
The 400 coralvue ballast I have is brand new in the box. 100.00
I've got 2 New reeflux SE 10k bulbs 35.00 each and 2 New Xm SE 20k bulbs 35.00 each

For the kalk stirrers I have one with a spare motor one with a motor the other comes with a new motor.. While cleaning them I noticed one wasn't running right so I replaced it.. The one with out the spare motor will be 140. One with the spare is still 150

I want the 2 20k xms if they are 250`s. i think i want some other things as well if one of your pm`s works out somebody may be coming from my neck of the woods. I am interested in vortechs and or tunze pumps depending on price. Maybe stirrer and those ballast and reflectors are tempting..are the lumenarc reflectors se 250 as well?

[8BALL_99]

Rugdog, Bulbs are 250 and yours if you want them.

Sale pending on one stirrer.

Have someone in line on the reflectors and mp40/s? Nothing set in stone yet.

2 of the reflectors are Lumenarc III mini reflectors 14x14...1 is the Lumenarc III large 19x19. All of them are SE they can take either 250 or 400 watt bulbs

 

[RUGDOG]

Sorry 8ball...I thought my new reflectors were single endbut they are double
