Well....I did this today:
Found a great deal from a local reefer - who after moving, decided not to set up his tank again. Got the tank, stand, sump, and Vortech M1 pump for $1500. I think that's a good deal . But even it it wasn't - I'm so excited.
A little back story - my daughter has been a reefer for a long time, and has a beautiful Waterbox 220 in her study. For Mother's Day, she bought me a Biocube 32 and got it up and running with live rock, water, and other stuff from her tank. I've really enjoyed the maintenance and problem solving that comes with a Nano tank (currently learning all about Dino's). A couple of days ago, she sent me the link to the tank in the picture, and the bug bit hard! Needless to say, we came home with the tank about an hour ago. The tank is in great shape. I need to clean it up a bit (anyone know how to remove Coraline algae from the back wall)? My daughter is planning on coming over tomorrow to help plumb it up! I've got LOTS of decisions to make......lights, skimmer, and all the things I haven't even considered yet - as this happened so fast. I just wanted to get my initial excitement recorded . Wish me luck!
