  3. JBJ Ocean Pulse - DUO Wavemaker (2 pump Capacity) $30

    Like new, box included. $30:



    Creating Motion in Captive Oceans
    The Ocean Pulse Duo is an innovative wavemaker that was specifically designed to replicate the natural alternating rhythms of tides and currents for home aquariums.

    These wavemakers instantly create turbulent flow patterns with adjustable alternating cycle times from 10 seconds - 6 minutes. All models are equipped with an adjustable dial(s) for quick and easy set-up for virtually all types of inverts, corals, filter feeders and fish who will gain immediate benefits.

    Always research specific flow requirements for individual animals before making adjustments.

    Water movement is vital for the success of invertebrates, animals with symbiotic algae, filter feeders anf fish. The natural currents in the ocean bring random flow and wave cycle patterns that provide nourishment while suspending waste particles for filters to effectively trap.

    Benefits of Replicating Wave Patterns
    Recreating water movement is essential for captive animals within our aquariums for long-term success. By installing the Ocean Pulse Wavemaker you will immediately be rewarded, as you see you aquarium transform into a cleaner, healthier and more natural environment.

    Benefits
    • Provides oxygen rich water to entire aquarium
    • Provides more stable water temperature
    • Creates desirable turbulant flow patterns only found in nature
    • Flushes "dead spots" of detritus and accumulated waste
    • Increase fish activity
    • Stimulates coral and invertebrate growth
    • Allows corals more exposure to light
  4. WTB Used Mag pump

    Finishing my RO/DI water change system and need a fairly inexpensive pump to get water out of my 30g barrel. Anyone have a used Mag they want to sell for $25ish?
  5. FS Rose Bubbletip Anemone (RBTA) $90

    My rose split about 4 days ago. The mother was originally about 12" in diameter. The clone is about 4-5" extended. It is currently still hiding under the rock, so I'll post a pic of it as soon as it comes out fully. Pre-split photo has the krypto candy canes at left. Post split the clone is shown with clown and eggs (orange dots) and momma shown post-split is the pic with just a fish tail on the right. The clone is the one for sale

    Base and mouth are purplish, the tips get incredibly bright. Pic with the candy canes is most indicative of color, my MH lights were glaring in the other photos.
