Welcome! Great idea looking on ebay! A lot of people consider any purchases "wins"? Is there any way to win something without first making a purchase? (Other than on R2R)

Nice Pom Pom!! Love those! I have won a frag skull rack, and some other stuff on IG in the reefer community! I always forget to think of an auction as a win...

That's super nice! Do you mind me asking how much it was? That really may make it more of a win!

Welcome to R2R from Colorado. I bought a Red Sea Max E-260 about a month ago. I hope you love your tank as much as I do mine. This one was already set up so I combined my previous setup with this one. Good luck with your build.

Sorry I was out on Vacation last week. I picked it up for $500.

Thanks! It seems to be in great shape. I haven't put water in it yet, but I'm feeling pretty confident about it. Now I just have to figure out what I'm going to put in it haha
