    Used Equipment Values and Equipment ID

    I'd ditch the heaters to be safe, as well as those lights. Trash the chemicals. Salt may be OK, it hardens but doesn't really go bad. The UV may just need a new bulb, they need to be replaced often. If the pump vibrates when its turned on try taking it apart and cleaning the propeller area, if...

    Petco $1 gallon

    Follow up on this. As I need a tank soon I did some research and found a price of $90 for an Aqueon 40b locally. I called Petco to see if they'd price match and spoke to a girl I know there. She told me that they're convinced there will be a $1 a gallon sale before the end of July.

    Algae Barn?

    I've used Aquarium Depot twice now for Amphi and Copes. Both times when I've opened the packages there were so many they'd be jumping out onto the kitchen counter. Added on a couple of corals last time as well, they did well.

    WTB 40b (Brick)

    Went with the eshopps box, had some great reviews and came with templates and bits. Still looking for a 40b to put it on.

    Petco $1 gallon

    Was in Petco 10 mins ago. It usually happens next weekend but the manager hasn’t received any information on it. Normally she gets a few weeks notice. So, no clue when its going down at the moment or even if its going to be any time soon. She also told me that 40s and 55s are no longer a buck a...

    Can I trim my frame?

    From experience... Use a Dremmel if you have one. Regardless, cut slow and steady or the plastic just melts. Take a paper plate. Cut it in half. Push the straight portion up under the rim on the inside. Bend the circle part of the plate to catch the plastic droppings.

    Moving sale fish and tanks

    Provider One bids three hundred quatloos for the zoo-med. Not a real bid. I have no quatloos. Obscure sci-fi reference, couldn't resist.

    WTB 40b (Brick)

    Thanks for the advice, had looked at that and decided on GH based on reputation, but I have had a few super silent Eshopps overflows. Knowing the GH isn't as quiet, looks like I'll go Eshopps.

    ATO systems?

    Ryan, Just broke down a couple of tanks and have an ato available. Not a name brand, has control box and 2 float switches which are configurable (I use one to turn on the pump at low level and one to turn off pumps if water level gets to high as a safety). Used it for the last year with no...

    Two should-be-simple reef health questions

    If you want to go the chemical route, Chemiclean works wonders, just DONT overdose. HAve used it a number of times with success and no livestock (invert, fish, or coral) losses.

    WTB Stand for IM Nuvo Fusion 10

    I had a guy building me a few bits of furniture build an additional stand for my IM10 (cheap and mega quality - in Brick). He'd probably do an individual piece, you're style and choice of wood for approx $80-100. Otherwise, check TJ Max and Home Goods. They usually have some good furniture at...
