    PM BULLET SKIMMER

    There is no gate valve. It has a small ball valve, as shown in the pic. I have downloaded the owner's manual in PDF and can gladly e-mail that to you if you'd like. I also contacted Precision Marine and spoke to Mike, he says this skimmer is not sold with a gate valve and does not recommend installing one. The skimmer does have a bag of accessories it comes with like the drain assembly, muffler, etc. Hope that helps -Mike

    PM BULLET SKIMMER

    I am told this skimmer skimer skims WAY better than it says on paper. Should be fine for the bathtub...LOL
  4. I bought a PM Bullet 1 skimmer, and then sold the tank I was going to put it on. I am going skimmerless on my 125, so I have no use for this. This skimmer has never been used and has never seen water. Comes with all acessories, no feed pump included. Price is $200.00 and I'll ship it to the Austin area for that price. -Mike

    75Gallon Reef Ready

    Yes sorry, I should have included that in my original post. It is a standard AGA 75G, 48 X 18. No scratches. The back has a tape on black/blue background.
  6. Hello everyone! I finished the upgrade to the 125, so I'm selling this 75. It is an AGA 75 with an internal overflow. Comes with the Tank, Stand, glass tops, and the Megaflow plumbing kit and bulkheads in the overflow. Tank is only one YR old, and grew pretty much anything I put in it. $250.00
  7. free bump to a great guy
  8. Sale pending! I'll post if it becomes available again. Appreciate all of the interest so far!
  9. Yes, you are correct. the price is $750 without the fish you listed. Everything else I listed in the original post is included for that price. Thanks for your interest!
  10. Much appreciated! Hopefully someone with $750 will agree.
  11. Thanks Dustin! I have received some PM's, but for some reason I cannot reply? Anyway, sorry for this and anyone can e-mail me--- [email protected] Also, I would like to sell this with out having to part it out. so, I have received some dib requests, but for now please wait on dibs. Thanks for looking!
  12. Ok, I have three tanks in my house. With two kids in sports I simply do not have time for all of them. So, I must sell my 158. I currently have it set up as a FOWLR; with some corals . What comes with this deal is this: Tank Custom Oceanic 158G Reef Ready aquarium, stand, glass lids, Penninsula style dimensions-60"L X 24"W X 25"T Filter(s) 4' (48") long wet/dry by Dan's Aqua C urchin Pro skimmer w/Mag 5 pump DIY 8G refugium, MJ1200 feed pump, 24" 65W PC refugium light TLF phosban reactor w/feedpump Return Pump Panworld 50PX-X Lighting 2X 250W Coralvue ballast 2X 250W 12K Reeflux bulbs 1 spare 250W Coralvue ballast Livestock really tame (eats from my hand) 7" Dogface puffer 4" Purple Tang 4" sargassum (or Redtail) Trigger 4 or 5" Yellow Coris Wrasse really large mats of "nuclear green" GSP Xenia 150 LBS of well established Live Rock (conservative weight estimate) 80-100 LBS of Live Sand I know most everyone has reef tanks, and this was set up as a reef before the FOWLR and it literally grew anything that was introduced. My son wanted a puffer so I changed it to this livestock list. So, that being said is the reason for the two different prices. If someone would like the set-up excluding the fish, it is an awesome reef tank. Entire set-up with fish: $1,000.00 Entire set-up minus the fish: $750.00 Here are a couple of FTS. I can take more if needed, please PM if so. I really hope to sell this with out parting out, so let's hold off on calling dibs for anything.
  13. I moved my Crocea a few months ago. I just waited until he was closed (lights out) and gently gripped the sides and slightly bumped it a few times until he let go on his own. moved him to a larger rock and he has had no ill affects. I asked the question on RC'S clam forum, they suggested the razor method.
  14. I have quite a bit of shrooms under MH lighting. What I have seen is they will generally "move" around on the rock until they are happy, sometimes they have even let go of the rock to find another spot. Generally they like non-direct light. Can you put a small rock to sort of shield them some?

    Sump uses?

    Yeah Mike, it's me...AKA Ace, I was wondering if you'd figure it out. As far as sumps and different designs, this is a good place to research. he is a sponsor on RC, and has alot of cool info on his site. http://www.melevsreef.com/shop/

    Sump uses?

    Well, the first thing you need to know is there are alot of opinions and alot of different ways to accomplish what you would like to acheive. The first thing you should do, (if you haven't already) is decide what you would like to keep in a marine aquarium. Literally hundreds (or more) options there. Then, after that you can build your set-up to accomodate what you would like to keep. To answer your question with my opinion, a sump can have different choices as far as media; some of the most popular choices are live rock and bioballs. since your still in the design phase, research refugiums and try to integrate one into your sump. With the tank size you posted, I would look into an Aqua C Urchin for your protein skimmer, they are really easy to get set up and very affordable. I applaud you for asking questions and researching this hobby before you jump in, that sort of patience will pay off for you in the long run.
  17. I agree with Blindside on the GSP, I have a TON of it in my FOWLR, and every now and then a rock or two will close up for a day or two.. One hint is GSP loves nitrates and pollution. Any change in lighting, replaced old bulbs with new, etc.?
  18. The fan should do a decent job of cooling your water some. It will interrupt the heat being transfered from your light fixture to the water. You have a Solana right? With the open top and the fan, should keep it at 80 or below. Also, try keeping the fan on overnight and this will give you a cooler starting temp before the lights come on. I have done that for a long time with success
