    I am selling my Reefer 350, I have the original and a custom sump crystal reef aquatics rsr350 available for it.The stand was modified with a control board on the right side to more easily mount your power outlets and or apex equipment.

    The tank is in working order and still running I am going to take it down this week (upgraded to a new 200 gallon tank).

    $700. or $780 with skimz DC skimmer that fits the customer sump

    Changes are coming to the 130! Yesterday I received the Exotic Marine Overflow I ordered. Taylor is great to work with. I sent him the drilling template I got from Planet Aquarium. He sent me a template of where the holes would be placed on the boxes to compare to the actual tank. One hole was off 1/4" so he did a 2nd template and sent which was perfect. This thing is rock solid. The external box basically has eurobracing as the top piece so the entire box is open. The Tideline overflow from PA has two separate lids so the piece in-between covers the center drain and is a pain to try to work around. The lid for the external box is also 3 layers so that shouldn't warp. The internal box is open on top and has two braces to also help prevent warping. On the internal Tideline box the weir is removable. The bottom of the removable panel is about an inch and half below the water line. Once and only once I removed it to look inside not thinking and my heart stopped when I heard the sudden rush of water down the drain. Luckily the sump was large enough to handle the water that drained before I could get the panel back on.

    You can see the external box sits slightly higher than the internal. On the Tideline the external is lower. To prevent a loud waterfall noise I had to raise the two emergency overflow pipes as high as possible. Water level in it has to stay about 1/4" from the top of the box...any lower and you start getting the waterfall effect. I placed the external box up to the current box and I think I'm only going to have to alter my main drain line because the hole for it is about an inch closer to the right side of the box. I'll get more pics as I work on it.

    Hey Jimbo 

    I am thinking about getting the PA 150 and wanted to know more info on your overflow experience. Did you have the 16 or 20 inch version? Would you have had PA do anthing different as far as drilling the overflow holes or was exotic marine able to compensate for  the 1/4 inch difference?

    208 gallon AGE tank

    in Complete Systems

    Posted

    Hello I am starting this thread to sell my tank, I am looking to sell the whole system together and not part it out. I have to leave the hobby for a little bit due to constant travel at new job but will be getting back into the hobby when things settle down a bit at work.

    This is what I'm selling

    MSRP Value

    AGE customTank 2800 1200
    Melev custom Sump 650 300
    Stand 1500 400
    Bubbleking SM 250 1500 800
    Deltec 601S Calcium reactor 800 200
    lumentec Ballast 250/400 X3 465 240
    Light reflectors X3 330 90
    2 Vortech mp40 800 300
    Tunze stream 250 125
    PH controller 125 60
    20 lbs CO2 tank and valve 300 150
    300 lbs liverock 1200 600
    Totals $10720 $4465
    This is a custom made 200 gallon AGE tank with starfire on 3 sides.
    The stand is also custom made
    There are many extras in this, the only thing I'm not including is the profilux controller.
    The Deltec Calcium reactor is leaking, I think it only needs the top oring and that's why its priced so low. I am also including a 1/2 HP chiller with the system that does work but needs to be charged to get the most out of it.
    I do have some fish that will also be included. The corals dont look great right now due to the amount of time I haven't had to spend with it lately but the tank is completely pest free as far as red bugs and AEFW
    There are also extras that Im including but not listing, including return pumps, 50 gallon refugium, bio pellet reactor
    Thanks for your time, as always price is negotiable but at this time I will not be parting out.
    If you want to read about the tanks progress from the beginning I will PM you a RC link

    I havent used it in about a year, I switched to vortecs.

    Unfotunetly the spot it used to ocupy in the tank is no longer an option.

    I am planning on selling the Vortecs next due to the noise and will switch to 3 tunze stream 6105s

    I love the Vortecs but due to where the tank sits in my house they are just not working for me.
