SOLD

Manufactored in 2007, the head unit and one remote pump work great. You'll get a second remote pump in the package that needs work. Maybe just needs to be cleaned. Anyway, it is a buy two and get one free. Package goes for $300

Very very very quite external pump. Good for lots of head loss. $75 NW Austin, Anderson Mill at 183. Pickup early evening or weekend. Thanks, Mike

Live rock sold and gone. Thanks so much.

The fella in the string above committed to the candy canes with no idea when he can pick them up. They are VERY AVAILABLE. If someone else is interested, please let me know. I'd even sell just a portion of the colony if you need something smaller. Mike

On Sunday, I won't be available in the afternoon. Family obligation...dad's birthday. Happy to see you before noon though.

ANderson Mill and 183

THis live rock is still available.

I need to know when you want to come pickup the live rock or if you have changed your mind. Thanks Mike

Here's another photo that better shows the colony:

Let's move the live rock! Make me an offer and bring a bucket! Lots of long skinny pieces. A few mushrooms. Pretty clean stuff.

Large candy cane colony. Somebody could buy this, sit on it for two months and frag it for a killing! Probably 30 heads here. $50

So does that mean you are interested in preparation for powerheads or does that mean you are interested and will get back to me after you get some controllable powerheads?

7096 Controller with cables to control 4 tunze powerheads. $95 I am up at Anderson Mill and 183. Message for appointment to pickup.

If you have a big clam, i'm talking like 8+ inches big or bigger, let me know. I'd like to add a big boy to my tank. I'm not looking to low ball on price, fair price for the clam and I'm in!

I have a 5lb and 10lb CO2 tank and a Milwaulkee controller. If interested, message me.

I had a sump built for me at GC. They actually worked well for me and the sump worked great with no leaks over a year before I reconfigured. They do not build a beautiful tank like AGE, but for the money, they got the job done. I wouldn't have a huge display made by them, but I did want to share that I had a decent experience personally. Remember, it is the unhappy customers that make the most noise. You never hear from the happy ones. You usually only hear the cacophony of the unhappy ones.

Thanks for looking. I sold both my 6105's on Reef Central in 35 minutes for $200 each. Hot market there!

I have been questioned about the term "grindy" with regard to the MP60. Maybe the word should have been "whiney". You can hear it ramp up and down when on the modes that vary the speed of the pump dramtically. Both of these pumps, Vortech and Tunze, are extremely quiet when operated on an single speed setting and not at 100%. If you need silent, you will need to forget the variable speed modes for either pump as they both make noise. Sorry folks, there is no silver bullet for this one. It is why I use the various profiles with my APex unit to ensure I get silent operation when I need it and then variable modes when I am not home to hear it.

THis is not an adjustable ballast. It is available along with the used ballast.

Bryan, bottom line is that they both make noise, they just make different noises. The Tunzes are extremely quiet if not run on a variable speed program. They are extremely quiet if you don't have a big hood to act like a resonance chamber. Now, if you have them run from 30%-100%, they drone and under a hood, at least in my case, they drone loudly. You are right, the Vortech product makes that "grindy" racket when it is on reef crest, or tidal, or pulse modes etc. That's why I bought an MP60...I run it no faster than 60% and it is relatively quiet. My Tunzes run off the Apex controller and they have a nice interface. It isn't as fancy as the Vortech modes on the WXM module, but they control nicely off the Apex controller nonetheless. I think you would do well in moving to the Tunzes if noise is a big problem for you like it is for me and you don't want to pony up for an MP60. They are both excellent products and the MP40 is nice if it isn't run full bore, just like my MP60. During TV time, my MP60 runs at 10% and my Tunze(one now) runs at 30-50% and I can't hear either of them. During the day, my Tunze runs 50-70% and I can hear it droning under the hood. Conversely, I can hear the MP60 "grinding" away also. For me the ability to control them and program for having the higher output noisier times when I am asleep or away and then it goes into "quiet" mode when I am home here on the couch. I think you would do fine adding a 6105 to your tank and dialing the MP40 way back. That would be best of both worlds.

I have used this pump for a little over a year. It just came off the tank and was working perfectly and quietly prior to removal. I am steam lining my setup and my Vortech MP60 is adequate with only one of my two 6105's on the tank. I'd like to move it out so I have less wires and junk on my system and less stuff hanging around my garage. $195 This pump is excellent in a 4 foot wide tank. Controls back with an Apex controller to work super in any size tank. I have the Apes cable that I can sell for another $15 if you want the cable also.

I had a warranty issue that resulted in me getting a new ballast sent to me from Coralvue. It took so long to get it worked out that I put in Lumateks in the meanwhile. I need to sell this. It has never been fired. Asking $85 I also have a used Coralvue ballast with 18 months use at 6 hours per day for sale. I would like $75 for it. Pictured is the new ballast.
