  1. I have an Aquamaxx EM300 if interested. Like new, was my backup due to being a bit large for my 150g, but still pulled skim hard. It comes with an extra new impeller. The impeller in the pump looks new also. I have made two modifications - 1. Plumbed airline into cup to pull moist air in to keep venturi clean, and put it up above the top line so that it does not pull in waste. 2. Added extra air nozzle to run ozone directly into the venturi. It is capped off. PM me if interested.
  2. I just use a pump stopper kit, from Aquahub, modified for my use with dual floats, a siren, and heavy duty cord. If I ever lose siphon (never have, even when I swapped out contents), the float in the tank triggers a dpdt relay to shut off pump. If that float ever fails, there is a second one in the sump if the water gets below it. Here are some pics. 1 - Normal operation 2. - left/tank float tripped 3. - right/sump float tripped
  3. Thank you. He is just just blowing up like crazy. Since I have had him, he has many new small "polyps" or stems that are growing out. He was in my 110g, and I just placed him in this 80g just a few days before this pic. I really like the purple tipped pink plate coral.
  4. Just wanted to follow up with a new pic of the 80g. I can not say enough good about these lights.
  5. Obviously, you have not dealt with quality LED lighting.... Here is a pic I just took of my 110g xhigh, 31" deep with Current USA LED Pro strips. My experience was with a fowlr tank and all the coraline was dead in a week. But like I said it was a few years ago and the formulation may have changed. I'm assuming you've checked the pH, alk and calcium in you tank to see if they've changed any. Looks like a nice Fungia by the way. I literally just got through treating last Friday, and after the treatment, I did a 50% water change. Nothing affected but red cyano and coraline algae on back glass. Thanks for the compliment on the fungia. I got him as a purple/green fungia, with him almost half and half. Now, he is mostly green. I must be doing something right.
  6. LOL... Did you not notice that light was on the coral and not on the back glass? I have LED lighting, which is directional.
  7. This is what I am talking about. I took this pic last night. Notice the spotty coraline algae on the back glass is very pale, or there is a "hole" in the middle.
  8. After 2 treatments, I did notice there was a slight "paleness" to the coraline algae, mainly to the new "spots" on the back glass. The coraline algae on the liverock was not phased.
  9. I will take a frag when ready! :-)
  10. I just treated mine with Ultraliefe's Red Slime Remover. Worked very well.
  11. I have four 36" Oceanic light strips like new. 2 pair woodgrain, 2 pair black, with bulbs. I can deliver during the week only. $25 each.
  12. Sold... Thank you wa1tx and ARC!
  13. They work in place They work instead of the Durso standpipe. In other words, they replace the Durso. PM Replied.
  14. Quiets overflows. Fits 1" pipes. Fits in standard overflow boxes. 2- 5/8” wide and 3- ¼” tall Not needed for my setup. $10 each or trade for coral frags.
  15. SOLD - Thank you CJWL and ARC!
  16. SOLD - last one. Thank you CJWL and ARC!
  17. I have a like new UV Sterilizer, 9w model from Coralife, used only for a week. Rated for up to a 125g. It was too small for my 110 to kill the ich. It would have been fine for algae control. I upgraded to the 18w, and it cleared the ich up in a couple of days. I have the same model on my 80g, and it cleared the ich in a few days also. $75
  18. Awesome pump. I use them on my 80g and 110g.

    ICK

    Your flow must be lower than what you set it up with to combat algae, for it to be effective with ich.
  20. I am glad you like it!! I still have one left, and may keep it as a backup still. Funny you mention that about the wrasse. I have a fairy wrasse in my 80g, and it loves to get in the skimmer box of my overflow, but somehow avoids being sucked up by the u-tube. When he sees me coming with the small net, he jumps out into the DT! Craziest thing I have ever seen. This has happend 4 times...
  21. Thank you KimP! It was a pleasure to meet you.
  22. One sold, one available. Thanks ARC. I will take $125 for it.
