Lighting Trade / spare tank maybe

[Lionel]

I've got this 4x54w T5 setup I'd like to trade for 2xMH of some kind, thinking of going back to planted tanks and discus, not really sure yet. the link here at the bottom is the fixture in question.

If I do decide to go freshwater again, I'll probably be selling off all my other equipment as well.

[vest0830]

I might be interested in buying them from you...

[Lionel]

the fixture is in good shape, 2x10k / 2xActinic bulbs. not sure how old the bulbs are. If i sell off the lighting, I'll have LR / aragonite sand / Protein skimmer available. it's an AquaC EV-150, works like a charm with an eheim pump

[jeffb3t]

Man, I wanted to get the EV-150... But I justI bought the euroreef RS 80 instead since it was a good deal. Wish I know about this before.

[Lionel]

LR is free to a good home, got some decent pieces.
sand is natures ocean aragonite few months use, ~60 pounds - $50obo
AquaC EV-150 /w Eheim pump - $200
misc SEIO pumps - $15 each
the 4x54W T5 setup - $200
Standard 55G tank with PX Metal stand - $75
29G tank used as a sump, CPR Overflow, Mag 5 return pump/w locline return $100
I've also got ~2L each of Seachem Reef Complete, Reef Calcium, Reef Plus ; 1KG Reef Builder, 1KG Reef Advantage Calcium

~4 frags of zoanthids from PPM, pretty cool lookin, one frag of green with orange centers about 50-70 polyps. the others have about 25 each. make an offer on these, or whoever takes the rock / sand can have them for free.

~4inch squamosa? clam, in great shape. free to whoever takes the rest of the livestock.

I want to get back into discus / planted tanks. I'll consider a trade for some lighting to cover a 36inch tank, preferable 10k MHx2

opps, cant edit anymore, and i forgot my cell number

I'm goin to some of the FW stores to look around..

[vest0830]

We decided we wont be going home this summer. If I can get my crap together, I might be interested in some of that stuff. Scratch the light idea...I am thinking about making an Anenome dominant tank and tie it into my current system. Not sure yet though. Going to think about it a little bit. Is there anything wrong with the 29g tank? you put baffles or anything in it?

I would already set that LR aside for Bret (the departed) and possibly the sand as well. im 95% sure he will want it.

Also, there is a real nice freshwater shop in Awase. Head past the mcc$ awase gulf course make a left at the second light, follow it down the hill, it will be on your left at a crosswalk stoplight.

[Lionel]

the entire thing is up and running currently, I plan on keeping it that way untill all the livestock is gone, or a total system sale.
the 29G is just fine, not drilled, no leaks, no baffles. it's basically just somewhere to put the protein skimmer for me.

[vest0830]

Ahh...ok. lemme think about this. I gotta get my main system going first before I start anything else. Id be fine with waiting also...

[Lionel]

I'm hoping to get rid of everything by the end of this weekend. I went looking around today at all of the amano stuff I want to spend the money on ;)

[vest0830]

What are the dimensions of the tank? -see if it will fit where I want to put it....

[Lionel]

29G - 12Wx17Hx35L
55G - 12Wx21Hx48L
inches of course

[jpenwell]

Do you know how to ship to main island? i am at yokota with dana and i would love some of the rock and zoos. i am sure between dana, myself and my nieghbor ( new to the addiction) we can handle your LR and zoos.

[Lionel]

no idea... lol

[vest0830]

Bret needs the LR here. ill try to get ahold of him tonight.

[Lionel]

Let me know whats up.

Lionel

[TheDeparted]

could definatly use the LR.. is it still in the water with the system running or is it sitting out?? I work mids and im not off till wed.. but if you have to tear the tank down soon let me know and I might be able to work something out...

[Lionel]

the entire tank is up and running right now. if I get rid of the rock, I need to get rid of the aragonite and the corals / fish as well. Can you take all of them?

[vest0830]

if he can't take the coral, i will take it for him until his tank gets up and running. What fish do you have?

[Lionel]

got a coral beauty, sailfin tang, and some sorta butterfly, not sure of the name.

all under two inches

[TheDeparted]

Yea, that can work, if Frank is willing to hold the livestock till I get my tank going again..

[Lionel]

Let me know when you can come pick up everything. I live on Kadena, my phone number is listed up top

[TheDeparted]

im off the next 3 day.. but its mostly going to be up to Frank on when he wants to get the livestock.. I also need his help on finishing setting up my tank.. I think im just going to make him do it.. because apparently he has the majic touch..lol

[vest0830]

yeah right...you get a ton of ppm or fish lady water yet? thats the trick I think.

anyways, they will have to go in my sump, but I have a place for them...

just let me know! im good pretty much any time after 5:30-

[TheDeparted]

no water yet.. i only have three 5 gal jugs...

ok.. ill go to bed soon and get up around 5. when you get off give me a call and we can go get water from PPM and try and at least get water flowing through my tank.

[vest0830]

Sweet Dreams. Ill call you later.

I think PPM is closed today.

[TheDeparted]

yea.. to nice of a day to sleep.. god I hate mids. PPM closed huh? how many water jugs you have??

[vest0830]

3. Ive got enough for 15g. I just ran by there, litterly...and there were people there. I suppose if your not using a debit/credit card...they would probably hook you up.

[Lionel]

Lionel

[Lionel]

Lionel

[vest0830]

Sagawa is the local overnight delivery company here on Okinawa/Japan. They're the trucks that you see driving by with a black cat and kitten in its mouth. It is used by the Japanese to send Soda and fish from one place to another literally in hours...(hourly flights throughout the islands). An ole friend used it to ship telephone orders into his soba shop to the mainland...worked like a charm...;)
