I have had a ton of responses and while nothing has been picked up and sold I have been coordinating with those interested to make a deposit in my pay pal account so I can start considering items sold. I hope to update the list some time today after pay pal payments have been made. Thanks for all the interest and Happy Holiday's!

The skimmer is rated at 135 gallons-I had it on my 90 gallon and sump for a total volume of 100g or so. Impeller was 65 dollars and purchased directly from euro reef.

Guys and gals thank you all for the responses! With all the holiday activity the soonest I can accommodate people is Sunday. So if you are serious about buying items please PM with a time you will be arriving this Sunday I will try to be available most of the day. I honor first come first serve except for cases where Live stock can not be easily extracted. The hardest live stock to extract are as followed: algae blenny, 6 line, cleaner shrimp, most of the anemones. If you are interested in those items I will work out the logistics on a case by case basis. Thanks!

Thanks all for you interest please PM so we don't flood the forum with replies. I will give you my address for pick up! Also, I will honor first come first serve so items will remain available until picked up-I will update items accordingly. Address for pick up is 7817 Odell ST Springfield, VA 22153 Lets make a deal!

It is a little sad but true, I will be leaving Virginia and my fish stuff is staying behind! I am getting out of the hobby and everything is up for grabs! Understand some of the rock contains bubble algae so I am pricing things to move! Anemones will come with large rocks attached. Most of the things are ready to be taken home with you. Pick up in Springfield cash and carry no trades I am getting out of the hobby. The 150g tank is heavy so please be prepared with van/truck and horsepower to pick that puppy up. I am probably forgetting stuff too! I will update as needed! Live Stock currently in tank (package deal including live rock $300!!)

really considering doing this, thanks for the link. Flow is off for pictures, the bulbs were replaced a couple of months ago, I don't know if it is time to replace again-I would think I would have enough light though. The acropora naa is only a couple of inches away from the surface of the water- and it was hit the hardest and first. It seems that once the algae grows on the tips I can do little to save them-I have trimmed them and dipped them in iodine solution without much luck. I have used the 175s for the last year with good success so lighting is not first on my list. Another observation I have made: I use to have a very large carpet anemone but around the same time as my corals have been acting up-my carpet anemone has not been it's self-it appears to have shrunk-and the mouth has a light brown color around the mouth-it is hardly ever fully extended if it hasn't shrunk. So that is another indicator to me that something isn't quite right with water quality....

Yeah I really don't know what the issue is. No vodka dosing-it is a very slow process though and it is has spread further. It only seems to be affecting the acroporas. All my other corals are doing pretty good. I am sure it is only a matter of time before all the acros are infected. Could it be some bacteria infection-can I dose my tank with something? Right now is not a good time for me to set up a dedicated quarantine so I kind of in a bad spot.

Does any one want to rescue these colonies? My largest colonies are starting to show signs of STN and nothing I do seems to stop it. The colonies are basically the largest ones in the pictures. I can't just watch these corals die so I will give them to someone who can save them (I hope).

OK as promised here are some pics of the carnage and of the tank in general..

Well thanks for all the tips. At this point I am definitely in damage control mode when I get home today I hope to see that the coral has not drastically declined. Stinging from other corals is a real possiblity since there is another much smaller acro growing next to it and they are starting to overlap at the base. The base shows no signs of tissue loss so far just the tips. I have a couple of other frags (on a frag rack), one from the same mother colony that is also showing signs of STN but from the base. I also have a frag of red planet showing RTN from the base. boo hoo this sucks!

I think you mistakenly used RTN twice in your last sentences. I tried the super clue technique on the first frag that I noticed the RTN on but it did not seem to help. I had to clip a large branch last night. I think it is funny that you can draw a conclusion about what may be the cause for a problem in my tank with the very little information you have about my tank. I have not drawn any conclusions and it is my tank! I only mention the Mg dosing because any person with good sense is going to look at what has changed in their system. My notes indicate that I increased daily Mg dosing to 15 ml from the previous 1 ml. There is a distinct difference between making observations and drawing conclusions.

That was very insightful . When I observe a change in the tank I review what changes have occured and that is the information I have relayed. In my case very little changes have occured and nothing out of the ordinary other than the increase in Mg Dosing. I don't know what has caused it, I just know I want it to stop! Well, I promise some pictures tonight-I just hope they are not going to be worse pictures than if I posted them last night...

It is on every little tip on the bushy acropora nana.

From what I have digged up STN is not generalized as starting from the tips or the base. The most significant changes I made were about a month ago and were part of my normal ~monthly maintenance routine. -20g Water Change -Fresh Carbon -Fresh GFO -Upped the Mg to about 15 ml/ml to increase the Mg from 1240 to 1350 over the course of about 3 weeks. This was part of my 'dialing' in process for daily Mg dosing. I refresh the carbon and gfo every month so I am bit skeptical about that factor adversely affecting the corals. My first thought was more along the lines of impurities in the Mg solutions. It is a MgCl/Epson Salt Mix. I pulled that off from daily dosing today. I should also note I have noticed signs of tip whitening in some of the corals for the past couple of weeks, but lately it has gotten to the point where action is required. My favorite colony of acropora nana is showing significant tissue loss at the tips I dipped a handful of corals today in an iodine solution for 15 min. Not sure what else I can do to fix this.....

Hey guys a few frags and a large colony of acros are showing signs of STN almost exclusively at the tips. I have not had would I would consider any quick alk swings but my alk did drop by about 1 dkh a week (for 3 weeks) to the level it is at now when my kalk reactor was off line. What can I do to stop this? Has anyone successfully beat this problem? Water Parameters: Nitrates 5 S.G.=1.025 PO4=.09 Alk=9 Mg=1350 Ca=375

sounds like your pump fried. I don't think you have many choices here- new pump with or without an impeller.
