    RED SEA s500 ELECTRONICS DRAWER / eBay

    HAHAHA Right? When I sold a handsized GSP rock for $20 a few years back, we agreed to ship priority mail. I secured it to a rack, secured the rack to a deli container with coated wire mesh, inserted that container inside another. filled fully with water taped shut, inside a box with paper and...

    What could this be.

    Had something similar to my yellow tang. My daughter noticed it. Said it looked like he got beat up. So went down to check on him and went to feed some nori and ZAP. Had 68 colts of stray current from one of my circulation pumps. Shut it down. A few weeks later. All healed. So, get yourself a.$5...

    RED SEA s500 ELECTRONICS DRAWER / eBay

    Item sold for $175, plus $68.85 Shipping.(actual Shipping was $55.) He should have used some of that $13 towards INSURANCE! I figure he made $143 on the sale and another $13.00 on the shipping he over charged me! It arrived damaged in shipping, so he can claim $50 insurance, making his total...

    RED SEA s500 ELECTRONICS DRAWER / eBay

    Soooo. He responded. "As you said I did come down quite a bit on the auction price by $75. And as you can also see by the shipping label that it is what the buyer selected. You did have an opportunity of selecting any other shipping methods but that is the one you chose. all we do is put in...

    RED SEA s500 ELECTRONICS DRAWER / eBay

    So my response to his short blurbs: "Actually, from my understanding, insurance is obtained by the shipper through the carrier. Your shipping price seemed high but since you came down on the auction price, I didn't complain about it. The package could have been shipped via UPS or FedEx for half...

    RED SEA s500 ELECTRONICS DRAWER / eBay

    Hello All, I purchased a used Red Sea s500 over a year ago. While the electronics drawer is cool, the design allows for potential water damage when the drawer is exposed. This is probably what happened prior to my ownership. Some of the outlets or switches weren't working properly. Was just...

    Vermatids

    You may have had them but seems to be two versions. Some are little, like the thickness of Sea urchin needles, the others.muxh thicker. Both pit out a mucus thread like netting when food or suspended material is in the water column. This mucus is what causes he coral irritation. I personally...
