Folks, I have a pygmy angel and a watchman goby. The watchman goby is grey with some light blue/red stripes. It used to pair well with a pistol shrimp. $20 for the 2. Pickup on Saturday/Sunday. -Krish

I can do 1pm, but if the fishes are still sitting, it might be a problem. If you leave a container with me i can hold the sand in it for you. Try to see if someone will pass it on for you. -krish

Count so far. Luke - 1 Ne0eN - 2 rocko918 - 2 Tri Bui - 1 Ghazanfar - 7 ( or what ever is left). I think that should clean up all the boxes i have left. Bob, thanks for working with Rob on your pickup as well. I will be out of town during the week and am available only during the weekends. Thanks folks -krish

Ok so far we have 5 spoken for. Luke - 1 Ne0eN - 2 rocko918 - 2 ---------------- Bob, If you will be out of town this weekend, you can still swing by the next weekend and i can hold for you. You don't have to paypal, but must pick up or i will be stuck moving it as well. -krish -------------------------------

Folks, I have around 12 of these boxes that were not picked up by folks from the group order. You will have to pickup from my home in Herndon on Saturday or Sunday. Please post your dibs. Help me get this off before i post on Reef Central. The $35 is a great deal for a 200lb box. Thanks Krish

Folks, The tank will need to be emptied and given to its possible new owner on Sunday AM. So the fish and sand will need to go on saturday. I have tabs on the PM for those that wanted the sand. If you have stuff that you have dibs on, but have not left your phone #, please PM me with the #. I will call saturday AM to schedule a pickup.

Thanks Krish

Folks, Thanks to all that have PMed me. I apologize for the delay in updating the items. I had to leave for NC wednesday evening and hence the delay I am relocating and have decided to tear down the 2 year old 120G reef tank. The tanks is a 4x2x2ft reef ready. It was custom built by glasscages. Comes with dual overflow chambers and 1.5" durso standpipes. It has glass bracing and no plastic center brace to melt. The tank is in good shape. Only one 1" long minor scratch on the inside and is not obvious. One would need at least 4 strong folks to lift the tank. I also have 300lbs of southdown sand in the tank that can be had for free. The sand bed has an eggcrate shelf, so no sand stirring and hence no deteritus mixup. The sand below the top layer is as good as new. The sump is a 29G tall and has a 1" bulkhead installed. I installed some baffles to suppress the mico-bubbles. The stand and canopy are DIY. The plan is to sell the Corals first, then the fish and followed by the hardware. I plan to setup a 360 or so in a couple of months when i am settled in NC, so will keep some of my hardware like the reactors/chiller/closed loop pump etc. Here are the details. Hardware 120G Tank $150 29G Sump $20 stand $40 canopy $15( furniture only) Package Deal of $200 - Reserved by Tri Bui If someone wants to purchase the lighting along with the canopy, we can discuss about it.

I will split a 1/2 bag with anyone that wants in. I still have 80% left from the last one. But i guess, i might as well keep stock. Thanks Krish

I still have the 1/5 hp aquanetics chiller up for sale. Bought new, used 4 months before the member upgraded to a 1/3 hp. PM me if anyone is interested. -Krish

someones munching em. My entire colony of zoos are almost gone. The Hippo had a snack in the 120. Moved em to the 42G softies tank to save. The bi-color angel started the nip. Took em out. The bi-color taught the lemon peel to nip, who was a good citizen until the bad one was introduced. So in all, its the munching fish , at least in my case. -krish

It is a better idea to go with a hole that would support 1.5" bulkhead. A 1" plumbing for the drain can only handle a 500gph pump. When i tried to use a 700gph pump, it was too powerful to the point where the tank would overflow. You should just go with a single hole . The glass is not strong enough for 2 holes on a single pane. I have a 1" drain, with an external durso fitting. The external durso was per Michael's suggestion. Has been working great. -krish
