I picked up a frag pack from emmanuel last weekend. By far, the best frag pack I've ever gotten from any one (vendor or hobbyist) hands down. Very healthy (SPSTD free), colorful, unique stuff and he was beyond generous with frag sizes. I can't recommend enough - frags are already showing some...

Hey Adam, Thanks for the corals. Very nice tank, BTW. Let me know when you'll be selling those cardinals.

Never mind the 1250, I just looked it up and it's a much weaker pump. I doubt it'd run the ProCal.

Think the 1250s would do the job as well?

Yikes, I guess I shoulda claimed the 1260 in my first post. I'll definitely take it if things don't work out.

The Eheim that you ran on the MTC calcium reactor, did you have the ProCal or the MiniCal? I have a pump-less ProCal waiting to be set up and I'm wondering how well it would run with an Eheim. If it was the ProCal, do you feel the performance was still good with the Eheim and did you have to...

How old are the vortechs?

Sorry, I've been having a busy weekend, but I would like that urchin. I can pick it up pretty much any evening this week. Sound okay? Oh, and THANK YOU very much SaltWaterN00b! I had to edit this reply because I neglected to indicate my gratitude initially.

Drat, I forgot about this thread. Okay, if SaltWaterN00b doesn't take it, I certainly will. I'm only about 15 mins away too.

Where in Brooklyn?

I'm interested. How old is the Vortech?

I know this post is old, but is this still for sale? Does each bulb have an individual reflector similar to the Tek lights?

I'm still going to hold up a little longer to see if an IceCap 660 pops up, but so far Marcin is the first in line for those two 250 watt ballasts. So far as price for the ballasts, I figure 70 for the new style one and 50 for the old style one is reasonable. The cheapest I saw was 75 for a...

I was running 2 250 watt xm10k and 3 400 watt xm 20k with an Aquablue T5 80 watt, but the canopy was cluttered, hot and inefficient - all this over a standard 180 gallon. I really didn't like how much light I was losing with the Spider Light reflectors either. I actually stopped using the 400...

I redid my lighting and now have a few things I'd prefer to trade but will also sell: - 2 IceCap 250 watt ballasts - One of them is the new kind and is only about 8 months old, the other is the old kind which is like two and a half years old. Both of them run perfectly. I actually preferred...
