  1. If I was laid off, putting things in my tank would be the last thing on my mind.

    Which, is why he is asking for free corals. Calling his judgement into question probably isn't what he came here for. Nor did he come for a life coach.

    I don't think anyone is calling this person out for asking for free coral. It happens all the time on the forum and people oblige it. However, to come in to the forum with little/no introduction and/or interaction and ask for concierge service was off putting when there was no prior interaction between the user and the rest of the club.

    Participate a little in the forum and try again later.

    I agree with you in that he is new and probably should've supplied a little more information about himself, his set up(s), etc. However, the comment made was completely unnecessary.

    While I don't think that his outright asking of people to bring free corals to his home was the best thing to do, I can see that it wasn't said in a demanding manner, nor was he trying to just grab some freebies and take off. Like everyone has stated, this is a family and a tight-knit community of very generous and caring people. That being said (many times prior to this), jumping down someone's throat because they slipped up isn't what our community is about. Nor making a jab at someone's judgement.

    SourDatx, no harm done. I suggest, like others already have, making an introduction thread and getting yourself a little better acquainted with our community. You'll come to find that people are far more generous, kind and caring that what has been displayed here if you just give it time, and let us get to know you better! smile.png

    Have the rest of my system up for sale. I will be asking $400 [OBO] for it all. Includes everything you need minus the lighting. As always, feel free to make offers that are within reason. Low-ballers will be ignored. The front glass panel does have a scratch.

    • Ehiem return pump - unsure of flow but guessing 1500 gph

  4. Hi everyone.

    Starting to break down my tank. Too much going on, mother is sick and I have NO time for my tank anymore. Unfortunately, I have no plans to get back into the hobby again anytime in the near future (unlike I have the past few times). This will be the start of my tear-down sale.

    2 x AI Sol WHITE w/ controller. These are the 12" modules. I will also include a custom metal hanging kit. It is a retractable fixture, that both lights can slide into, making it very easy to move around and clean.

    They are less than a year old, and normally retail at $900+. Everything is in 100% working order.

    I am asking $750 for everything. That includes:

    - 2 x 12" AI Sol WHITE

    - Controller

    - Custom metal hanging kit

    I will not accept low-ball offers, so don't even message me if you're uncertain about what your offer would be classified as. All REASONABLE offers are welcome. I will only deal with serious buyers, I'm not interested in wasting my time (sorry to sound so harsh).

      - AquaIllumination Sol Controller
      - 12" Silver Colored Mounting Rails (Other sizes also available)
      - Mounting Kit w/ End-Plates & Mounting Legs (Hanging Kit Sold Separately)
      Specifications:
      - LED Specs: Each module consists of 24 LED lamps grouped into a bank of 8 lenses or pods each containing two Cree XP 6500K "Full Spectrum" LED lamps and one Cree XP Blue LED lamp.
      - Sizing Guideline: A single module installed 1-2" above the top of the tank is capable of covering a tank length of approximately 12". If the module is raised up and installed 6" above the top of the tank it is capable of covering a tank length of approximately 18" and at 12" or more above the top of the tank it is capable of covering a tank length of up to 24". When installed using the Mounting Legs, each module sits 1-2" above the top of the tank.
      - Recommended Tank Depth: up to 36" with proper placement of corals.
      - Recommended Tank Width: up to 30" with proper placement of corals.
      - Power Consumption: up to 75W at full intensity per module.
      - Individual Module Dimensions: 11.9" x 5.4" x 2.4" (L x W x H).
      - Warranty: 1-Year Manufacturer Warranty w/ completed product registration.
      Features:
      1. Intensity is adjustable from 0 to 100%.
      2. The white and blue LED lamps are controlled independently allowing the color to be adjusted from warm white (approximately 6500K) to deep blue (greater than 20000K).
      3. Two control settings; Automatic and Manual. In Automatic Mode the sun rises and falls at user determined times and the fixture automatically transitions into the corresponding moon cycle for the duration of the 24-hour period. The 16 unique user defined set points can simulate cloud cover and other light variations. In Manual Mode the light may be set to the desired intensity and color and turned on-off manually.
      4. Moon intensity automatically adjusts to follow the actual lunar cycle of ~29 day.
      5. Fixture is cooled by blowing air across heat sinks located above each bank of LED lamps preventing salt, moisture, dust and dirt from entering the fixture and harming the LED lamps and other internal components.
      6. 100V - 240V Universal Power Supply allows fixture to be used on a wide variety of power sources.
      7. Seamless integration with Neptune Systems Apex, Apex Lite and Apex Jr, GHL Profilux and Digital Aquatics ReefKeeper Elite controllers.
      Benefits:
      1. Superior Performance - Capable of producing as much light as a 400W metal halide system for effective growth of both SPS and LPS corals.
      2. Save Energy - More than 50% versus comparable metal halide system.
      3. Low Heat - Generates a fraction of the heat of a comparable metal halide system.
      4. Long Lamp Life - Up to 10 years.
      5. Multi-Functional - Sunrise, daylight, sunset and lunar light cycles all included.
      6. Upgradeable - Modular design allows end user to increase the length of the fixture or upgrade to the latest in LED lamp technology.
