  1. [NO LONGER FOR SALE]

    Hi guys,

    I bought this light for my 40 gallon cube. It's a great light fixture. Everything works great. This is a great way to make the transition to LED without spending a ton of money. It has excellent build quality and corals thrive under it. I am only selling because I am very likely going to stick with only my 90 gallon reef for the foreseeable future.

    You can individually control the blue and white LEDs. Great for a smaller tank (under 50 gallons, given the right dimensions and coral placement). Comes with the original box and more than 2.5 years left on the warranty.

    I'll get pictures up soon.

    Thanks,

    Daniel

  2. Oceanic brand Cube tank. comes with hood panels and double florescent light canopy. dimensions are 18 deep x 24 wide x 21 tall over 1/4 inch thick glass (9/16ths)?

    black wooden trim on top and bottom. back wall painted black but could be scraped off for a see-through application.

    price reduced to $95.

    price reduced to $50.

    now $40!!

    My son accidentally rolled his bike into one of the corners, resulting in a very small chip on the outside edge of the glass. pics attached. selling for half of what i was asking because of this. black back could be removed to orient the chipped edge towards the back if desired.

    DAYTIME PICS ARE TAKEN BEFORE THE CHIP. night = after.

    located in central austin.

    I will take it.

  3. Hmm, my bulb combo is somewhat blue, but still not blue enough for me (I personally like the color of Radiums on magnetic ballasts):

    ATI Blue+

    GE 6.5k

    ATI Aquablue Special

    If blue is what you want, you probably shouldn't have the GE 6.5k.

    I'm considering changing to this next time I swap lamps:

    ATI Blue+

    KZ Fiji Purple

  4. If you haven't done so already, get some good test kits. If you want your SPS to do well, minimize your fluctuations in Ca, Alk, and Mg (and pH). Trust me, stability is key...I have a coral "graveyard" in my garage to remind me of the times I didn't keep conditions stable.

  5. I would assume food salt. It is just NaCl without anything else in it. I would guess the difference would be the level of purity.

    The grain size would also have an affect on the quantity of salt you'd mix in. Seems like a nice idea. I think I'll try it.

  6. I tried the Red Sea Pro salt and had no ill effects but was not happy with all the sediment. I now use Seachem reef salt and have been happy with the results. It seems to mix much cleaner and completely dissolves.

    Anyone else have issues with the sediment from Red Sea?

    I have.

    Based on the those results in the previous post, it looks like the D-D, Tropic Marin Pro, and Tunze are the best (imo)... of course, we all know there's a ton of variability from bucket to bucket.

  7. If you're serious about reducing the heat added to your tank, get a true external pump (I'm running the Panworld 50PX-X). However, since space is limited, I would recommend the Eheim since they're very reliable. Be careful not to raise the pump's inlet too high off the water.

  8. It was used for under 4 months, but hasn't been used in over a year. I still have it in the original box. Asking $80. Paid a lot more. This is similar to the Red Sea Wave makers, except that it can handle 100 watts per channel (three channels can be controlled with one "always on") and it uses a "soft start" on the channels to reduce wear on the pump.

    Product Details:

    *The Aqua Medic Wave is a four channel pump controller for randomizing water circulation in the aquarium. The Wave uses a microprocessor based controller that can operate up to three circulation pumps and one filter pump.

    *The Wave can activate the pumps with 8 different programs to simulate many different current patterns. Between 0 and 3 pumps are operated simultaneously and the frequency of switching can be adjusted.

    *The fourth channel (filter pump) runs continuously except when feeding the aquarium, particularly when feeding plankton to filter-feeding invertebrates, a feeding pause button can be activated which turns off all 4 pumps for approximately 10 minutes.

    *An integrated light sensor ensures that during darkness, no more than one pump is active at any one time.

    *Each channel uses a "soft start" power up for extended pump life and can be used for Oceanrunner pumps or power-heads with a maximum power draw of 100 watts each.
