WTB Live Rock and 4' Light

[Hoosier daddy]

Hey guys,

I am starting a new tank up here in the next week or 2. Trying to get a deal on some Live rock and a 4 foot metal halide light or T5's. Let me know what you have and what you are asking for on it.

Also will be looking for a mag 7 and mag 9.5 pump if anyone has an extra laying around.

You can call me or drop me a PM. My number 303-434-0474

Thanks,
Scott

Scott,

If you are looking for retrofit, I have all new T5 stuff sitting around. Brand new icecap reflectors $20 each and ATI Blue + Bulbs $22 each, brand new icecap T5 ends $10 each, and an icecap 660 (brand new in box) for $140. Based on Freddie40's thread, I'm going to go with VHO supplementation and not use T5's.

If you don't want the icecap ballast, I have a reefgeek retrofit ballast that will power 2 4' T5's for $40.

I also have 120# of a mixture of Tonga Branch and Fiji Premium live rock. $3.50/lb you can cherry pick.

As an added bonus you can visit your old 225.

I'm at Wadsworth and Belleview.

Scott, I have a 4' AquaMedic "Sexy" Ocean Light available. 2x250w MH plus 1x150 MH. Internal ballast, hanging kit. Used 9 mos. $500

Zenman,

I am definitely interested in the Live rock, will want to come by in about a week or 2 if you don't mind( I am thinking about 75lbs to start). Also would definitely love to see my old 225 gallon and to see how it has been treating you . Yeah I went with 4 VHO's(actinic) on that 225g and loved that look with the 2 400w XM 20k halides.


Artful,
That sounds like a good deal and I might take you up on that. What bulbs are in it now(kelvin rating)? If it was used for 9 mos, they might need replaced...hmm.

Thanks again,
Scott

probably getting close to replacement time, at least for the 2x250w (the 150K worked just the morning and evening transitions)

it has AB 10K (250w) and 20K (150w) bulbs in it now
