  5. i am looking to buy a used 24 aquapod or a 29 gal biocube..especially if it has a MH upgraded light...

    please let me know if you want to part with yours...

    Hello

    I may have a tank you might be interested in. I custom built it from acrylic. It has a built in filter chamber in the back that is about 4 inches wide with a modular setup for the mechanical filter shelves. Also has a removable fug chamber and two big chambers on each side for a heater and a small protein skimmer. Also includes the plumbing for dual outputs just needs the lockline fittings. If you are interested I will throw in 2 Maxijet 900's I had planned on using as the return pumps. Please call me at 826-3569 and we can discuss further if you think it is something you might be interested in. Brand new I just decided to go a little bigger.

    I sent a couple of pics for you to look at.

  6. Just bringing this up again to see if there is any new interest. I know someone could use these.

    I will come down to $150 on the nano. I had had a couple of hits, but no bites. I have to hold

    up my end of the deal - no more new tanks till these are gone per wife. Please Help!!

  7. I am looking for some suggestion on reactor media to use. What is good and what is not so good.

    I have been looking at some that Pacific Coast Imports puts out that they claim is the best to

    use because it is dead coral skeletons. Any thoughts would help

    Thanks :o

  8. I have almost always owned acrylic tanks. Yes they will scratch and yes they are a little tougher

    to clean. I always clean the inside with the white filter pad you can get in bulk at the LFS and as

    far a cleaning the outside I always used the plain white wash cloths you buy in a 12 pack at

    Walmart. Wet one for wiping the dirt and smudges off and another one dry for polishing the tank

    dry. The other drawback is if you are using MH lighting avoid placing the bulb directly over the

    braces, could soften the acrylic, just a precaution. Other than that you can't beat the clarity.

    I also lived in California for a while and that is all you can use in the earth quake areas because

    acrylic gives and won't shatter like glass.

    Just my input hope it helps.

    you should buy the nano since you liked it when I brought it to the house. It would look nice with

    your other collection of tanks.

    Or the other tank it is a great looking room divider setup.

    Any other takers?

    The dimensions on the Nano is 20" square and 18" tall my idea was to put a 150 MH over the top

    for a stony and clam tank. It also has 4 returns or 2 closed loops. The fug can come out as well

    and the filter area in the back is about 4" wide.

    The 50 gallon is 36"long 15" deep 20" tall

  10. Hello to All

    I am trying to set up a custom tank and the wife won't let me do it till I sell the other 2 tanks that

    I have. One is a 50 gallon acrylic with custom end overflow and 36" stand. Also includes a 12" tall

    canopy designed for MH lighting with fans. It also includes a sump with all the plumbing to hook it

    up. The other tank is a custom nano that I built but have decided to go another direction hince the

    new tank. I am asking at least $300 for the 50 gallon and the nano is brand new and is going for

    $180. Please let me know or call me if you are interested.

  11. It could be possible to split the sump feed so that all the overflow water isn't going through the skimmer. Hey I haven't looked but is that skimmer have a recirulating pump on it as well. I don't think the water feed would be as important verses

    dwell time in the skimmer. Just my thoughts because I have experience with an Aqua Medic 1000 that required very little

    water to feed it. I know not the same skimmer but same concept if it is recirculating.

    James

  12. I have a 125 skimmer for sale and it measures 24 inches tall from bottom to top of lid.

    If you are interested let me know I only used it for maybe a year or so. great shape.

    It only needs about a 1/4 of an inch to take off the collection cup for cleaning

  13. Hello to All

    Thanks James for the compliments on the cube. It is my prototype I kinda took the good and the bad of all the mass

    produced cubes and (I think) improved on them. I am planning on building another one to improve on my own design.

    I would love to bring it to the next meeting to show off my handywork.

    I wouldn't mind showing how to build an auto top-off as well or anything else I might have knowlege on.

    PS I wouldn't mind hosting the next meeting it's just that I live out past the airport. I would also have to talk to the wife.
