  1. It’s (2) Orphek icon and (4) Orphek OR3 bars.
  2. You’re more than welcome to come by and look at the 5’ SCA150 I’m in the process of setting up. Opens up the choices of fish even more.
  3. Sweet. I just ordered a SCA 150. 60x24x24. Nice tank. Price point was good as well. About 1/3 the cost of a custom tank. Quality seems nice too.
  4. Is this a ground floor condo or an upper level. If upper level check to make sure the floor can support it. I had to brace the floor in my house for my 72x30x22 tank. on a side note, I have a 72x30 stand for sale cheap ?
  5. Are you able to move the smaller tank to another spot in the basement? It’s wouldn’t be very hard to drain it, move the tank over a few feet or so and then put everything back in. That would take maybe an hour. then you can plan on the spot for the new tank and take it slow. The bigger problem of going from a 50 gallon to a 100+ is where are you going to get the extra water. Do you have enough on-site to make the transfer easy. Or would you have to carry 5 gallon buckets of water. It’s not hard, I have done it several times. I even drained my 200 gallon tank to pull the entire sand bed and put everything back in about 6 hours later. It was a PIA but on a smaller tank it should be fairly easy.
  6. You could always go for a rainbow chalice. Those are always nice and you have a lot of space in the sand bed. or a nice meat coral. Just hope the coral beauty doesn’t get a taste ?
  7. Northern va ain’t that bad ?? what are you going with this time? 6 footer? I got a bunch of misc stuff. Reach out. I got ya.
  8. I just bought an SCA with eurobrace. They told me the 1/8” mat that comes with the tank I can use.
  9. That sucks man. What happened? I had to break my 300 down a few months ago due to a sump leak.
  10. I have some older chillers. They are about the size of a dorm fridge. But they are cheap. In nokesville.
  11. My 10 year old tank spring a leak yesterday. It’s been a nightmare. I am trying to save as much as I can but I need 250 gallons of RODI water and don’t have that much on hand. I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me out with as much water as you can and bring it to my house. I have a 280 gallon tub set up in the garage that I am going to run until I can sell everything since the tank is going to need to come down. My address is 11613 Kettle Run Road, Nokesville VA 20181 If you can spare some time to bring me as much water as you can, please let me know. ** one thing to note, I am just getting over Covid. I am feeling better but I want to minimize contact. The tub is set up in the garage so all I would need is for you to dump the water into the tub. *** if anyone can help, please let me know.
  12. Try draining the rear chambers and filling it with vinegar and let the pump soak. Then pump the water out using the pump to help clean it up. That might loosen it and clean it at the same time.
  13. There is no one local. Closest is coast to coast in NJ or planet aquarium in Texas I think. Then miracles in Canada. And glass cages depending on size.
  14. I’m like 15-20 mins from chantilly depending on time of the day ?
  15. What are your levels. Nitrates and phosphates? what lights are U using? What program?
  16. So you trident was reading 12 ALK but it was actually 4.2? That’s crazy. Raise it slowly.
  17. I have a 75 gallon and a 40 gallon tank I’m willing to donate to a school program. If interested please let me know. A tax donation form would also be appreciated
  18. I will measure it when I get home. And have no problem holding it.
