I am tearing down my old system to begin a new build. All the equipment will be available by next weekend, some sooner. I am transporting livestock this week. shipping is at buyers expense. PM is key


Vortech MP10ES purchased new jan 2013 $150


Kessil A350W purchased new aug 2013 $275


Reef Octopus NW 110 purchased new jan 2013 $100


Coralife Biocube 29 purchased new jan 2013. This tank is drilled for a sump. I have recently made this tank rimless. Stand has custom electrical panel, lighting, and panduit to organize cables. I also had a custom sump built, sump is glass and acrylic and fits directly in the stand. Originally I planned on using the T5 and LED lighting I modified into the original canopy, however I decided to go to a rimless set up. The hood has 2 18" T5's and 4 12" stunner strips of various colors. I have attached my original build thread which has more pictures. Biocube "Supercube" build - Michigan Reefers


Tank, stand, misc plumbing $225
Custom sump $100
Modified Biocube hood with T5 & LED $50

Sorry I didn't see the part about the sump. I wouldn't feel comfortable shipping the sump, I don't think it would make it. I will get dimensions on it later today.

BattlesReef-

just for fun or what ever. lol

I bought a good condition used 29g BioCube for my wife's clams and mushroom's. I've done so many modifications, I may as well forget the factory filtration and drill the tank for a sump, like you've done. I've thought about it a while back, but yours the only one I've seen.

Hell, I'm not even using the hood, as I bought a pendant light ! lol
