atoll Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Well what a day one issues after another but 6 hours later my new (well secondhand) tank is in, Now the fun really starts but it will be a few weeks before I transfer all my stock over to my AquaReef 300 to this new tank. Tank ks 54"X 20" X 19" with Starfire front glass, white high gloss doors and side panels. Came with a shed load of good kit as well along with a bargain price, Very happy so far . . 2 Quote Link to comment

atoll Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Wow Les that is SOME tank Good for you Albert Certainly is Albert and fits like a glove in the space I have for it. The guy has lost over 2/3rds of the price he paid 6 months ago but he needed it to go quickly as he is moving house an needs to down size. It also came with a Maxspect 150 gyre and a Jebao 8000 return pump a phos reactor with pump.Jeabo 4 channel doser, heaters, ATU and other bits and bobs all 6 months old. I am very pleased as it;s all quality stuff. Am very tired now and aching so off to bed to recuperate as it's all taken it's toll on me but I am extremely pleased. 1 Quote Link to comment

Wow man you got SOME deal there for sure I love it Not often that you can get all of that for a real good price as you intimated in another message Albert 1 Quote Link to comment
StinkyBunny Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Damn nice tank Les!! Just be VERY careful with that Jebao dosing pump, the 1st gen units had some issues with siphoning. You can email Eric at Fish-Street and he can tell you if it's a 1st or 2nd gen doser. I have 2 1st gen and have never had an issue, but I keep them in line with the water level and I keep the output end out of the water. 2 Quote Link to comment

Hammerstone Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Sun corals are pretty safe as far as toxins right? I have my hands in the tank every night to feed them. They don't sting you right? 1 Quote Link to comment
