    For Sale: San Diego - Sump Refugium with light + Skimmer

    Item still for sale. Example shipping cost is $40.77 by Fed Ex Ground to Wisconsin (with $250 insurance). We must get a great Corp Fed Ex rate as UPS was $122 for the same box... USPS Parcel Post was about $33 for the same thing but will probably take 2-3 weeks for delivery vs 4 days for Fed...

    For Sale: San Diego - Sump Refugium with light + Skimmer

    The Box is 30.5" x 12.25" x 14.25" and 29lbs. Shipping from San Diego 92127. It would probably be safest to pack it inside another box to make sure it doesn't get broken since the sump is the same size as the box. Probably about $5 to buy a big box and I can get bubble wrap from work... I can...

    For Sale: San Diego - Sump Refugium with light + Skimmer

    I can ship it if you pay for it. You must pay for the insurance too in case it gets damaged in shipping. I worry about the acrylic stuff getting broken even if I mark it as fragile... I will try to get a cost later (have to measure and weigh the box). Please PM me your exact address so I can get...

    For Sale: 36" HO T5 4 LAMP AQUARIUM LIGHTING SYSTEM in San Diego

    Still have a new one available. I used one of these for a couple of weeks on my tank while waiting for a new ballast for my 150w MH light. Worked great with the corals that I have. I even decided that I am going to keep one as a back up...

    Ebay Halide lights systems.

    Sorry but most people in the US have no concept of what things actually cost to manufacture. As consumers we get screwed on items we buy in the US because we have such a high standard of living. Heck, our "poor" people have cell phones and flat panel TVs. Do you really think a pair of jeans...

    Ebay Halide lights systems.

    I just found some interesting LED fixtures from HK on ebay. They are enclosed metal channels sealed to IP65 rating (10L per minute water spray) 2" wide X 2.4" tall x 19.6" long and contain nine 3w LEDs. They can provide them with your choice of LED colors from 20k white to 405nm UV blue. They...

    LED fixtures with legs?

    I am considering getting a LED fixture (30"-36" long for a 33" long /48 gal tank) to replace my 150w MH + 2x96w PC fixture but I want a fixture with legs that will stand on top of the tank. My wife does not want me having something hanging from the ceiling nor do I want the arms coming from the...

    Ebay Halide lights systems.

    Yeah, I was considering that one as a replacement for the MH (Nova Extreme Pro T5). I see them for $312 + $8 shipping for a 36" on Amazon (from Marine and Reef). I put a wavepoint 36" 4x39w fixture on there until I can get it resolved... The guy at a LFS keeps pushing me to go for LEDs due to...

    Who has MH light experience?

    Thanks. I'll see if they will send me a new ballast. I like the fixture but it has to be reliable... As for the Tang, I didn't know Tangs needed so much room until I started reading on the BBS. He was in my 38 gal for about 6 months before I upgraded. Now he swims laps around in the new tank...

    Just posting a follow up. Been having problems with my $250 ebay fixture and will probably return it if I can. The MH bulb that came with it stopped working after about 10 days. It would light up for about 20min to two hours then shut off. The seller said it was a bad bulb and would send me a...

    Who has MH light experience?

    Also, if I get another fixture, should I go for a 4x39w T5 HO (I have a wavepoint 36" T5 4 bulb I can use) or a 6x39w T5 HO (Nova Extreme Pro T5) set up? What will keep my corals "happy"? My tank is 33 long x 18" tall x 17" deep (front to back). ~47 gal + HOB fuge full of Chato, Remora...

    Who has MH light experience?

    I have a "new" 150w HQI MH fixture that I got on ebay for $250 delivered. Looks like a decent fixture with the 150w 15000k MH, two 96w PC Actinic bulbs, 8 blue LEDs and a built in fan. Separate cords and switches for each light. The MH bulb that came with it stopped working after about 10...

    Ebay Halide lights systems.

    The ballast is just sitting inside the stand with plenty of free air around it. It is just warm to the touch (maybe 110F) on the finned aluminum heat sink. I have left the stand doors wide open and I even tried pulling it out of the stand and letting it sit on the floor in front of the tank. No...

    Ebay Halide lights systems.

    I recently got one off ebay for $250 shipped. 150w HQI MH + 2x96w actinic CF + 4x blue LED. It has a built in fan, four cords and four switches so you can set up individual timers. Overall the fixture is pretty decent quality. A weak point is the mounting of the legs. It uses 4 aluminum U...

    Lion fish

    Try some large guppies or very small feeder goldfish. That always worked for me. (They don't live for very long in the saltwater so make sure they get eaten and don't just go to the bottom and rot)
