Cutting Back

[H@rry]

I've finally had to admit to myself that I've got more tanks than I want to take care of. This is getting to be a job. After a discussion with M@ry Ruth we have decided to cut back on the number of tanks. This is a 190 gallon that we have had set up since ’99. It is 5 ft long, 24 inches wide and 30 inches deep. Not reef ready or drilled.

Tank, stand, canopy
Dual 4 inch cooling fans in canopy
Overflow Box
Dual 275w MH fixtures - DE
175w MH socket/reflector - SE
Blue Line MH ballast – 250w
Galaxy MH ballast – 250w
PFO MH ballast – 175w
Dual VHO End Caps w/ IceCap 430 Ballast
Dual chamber Calcium Reactor w/ pH probe
Mag 2 recir pump for Calcium Reactor
CO2 regulator w/solenoid
20# CO2 Bottle
Turbofloter 1000 Protein Skimmer
Ocean Runner OR2500 pump for skimmer
Mag 9.5 return pump
Natural Wave Wave maker
HOB filter for carbon
3 Maxi-Jet 1200 Powerheads
Mini-Jet Powerhead
Sterlite tub sump
150 - 200 # Live Rock
2 - 3 inch Southdown sand bed
Some coral - Montipora - Pagoda Cup - Tongue, etc. - nothing real fancy

You come get it and move it. This thing is heavy. It will take 4 good men and I’m not one of them. This is everything you need for a nice reef tank in an all-in-one deal. $1800.

Montipora palawanensis. But I don't know if he is selling it, except for little pieces :wink:.

--edit--
Oops. That's in the center, not the right. I try to show off my skills and flame out anyway. Oh well.

What size Koralia evolution are they?

I have no idea.

 

[Tomoko Schum]

Do you know the flow rate?

 

[H@rry]

Do you know the flow rate?

No, I bought 3 or them several years ago and this is the only one left. I forgot all the specs on them. I will say that I wouldn't buy any more of them. The Sicce powerheads are much better.

Thanks.

My old Koralia 4 are doing well and I am happy with them.
I am thinking about adding another powerhead in the center. Koralia 4 is way too powerful there although I have a spare one (which I took out from the center for the very reason.) I suppose I can give Sicce Voyager 2 a try or replace one of the Koralias with a Vortech MP40...

I'm using the Voyager 7. One at each end of the tank pointing at the opposite corner. They do well with a wavemaker strip. One is always on while the other is off. Noise free and very dependable. The come with an insert to put over the end to make a wider stream instead of a concentrated stream. Without that they were moving the sand at the end of the tanks.
