Dan, and his lovely wife Crystal, picked up everything today. Aside from meeting two very nice people, my favorite moment was when Dan said “You don’t know how happy you’ve made me today.” My response was “You don’t know how happy you’ve made me today.” I am thrilled that everything is going...

I’m not going to the meeting and, sorry, but I’m not interested in selling the pump at that price.

Price reduction 300 bucks for everything -except the Iwaki if you can take it tomorrow

I honestly don’t know if it is “Japanese or American” here is a picture of the label. I would like to $250 for it but if that’s unreasonable to you, give me an offer.

How about $500. If you also want a brand new Iwaki MD100 pump, not previously listed, but perfect for a two floor set-up, I’d like $700. That pump alone

How about $500. If you also want a brand new Iwaki MD100 RLT pump, not previously mentioned, but perfect for a 2-floor set up, I’d ask $750. There are also some other items I’d throw in like an RO/DI system, BRS reactors, gate valves, etc.

Sorry Diana, didn’t realize about the rules. I hope all is well now. Jim

Hi all, Some time ago I bought a 90 gallon starfire glass oceanic tank with cherry stand. I also joined the club, but never got involved due to a variety of personal set-backs and things. Now, I'm moving and have to sell it all - fast. The tank never got filled , other than some dust - it's...

Sure, thanks for the invitation. I would be happy to see your set up. Even if I don't go to a new controller, it looks like the main ones (RK, Apex, Reef Angel) etc all connect similarly, I would love to see your tank. I am going to get my electrical sorted out, and finish the set up, and then...

Thanks. And yes the skimmer is huge! The reason is that I got a good deal on the package of used equipment that included the sump, the skimmer, two or three BlueLine HD40 pumps, the gate valve for the skimmer and some full union ball valves. The skimmer is by Marine Technical and it's their...

Catching up where this project left off..... I have the light suspension system up, and the plumbing done. I checked the main drain for leaks and it's tight. I am concerned with some threaded connections, but we'll see what happens when I turn the electricity on. I also finished plumbing...

Thanks guys. I tried to link this to my old tank build thread and continue it there but it didn't work. In any event it's title is this New-(tank-and-reefer)-90-gallon-build

It's not a big deal. Here is what I did.

Thanks for the suggestion but I cannot. My home is old and the ceilings and walls are a very odd blend of materials. It's made of studs with a wallboard that is made of about 5/8 inch of compressed fibers of what seem like wood, horsehair and glue with a thin brown or scratch coat, followed by a...

I found that out. Ha ha. I also found out that my ceiling joists won't let me mount the fixture in the ceiling where I would want. I'm going to mount a board on the ceiling and attach the fixture mounts on there. I had picked up a 1 inch pine board but I think I'll go exchange that for 5/4...
