Hi everyone, I have an extra older inTank media basket that I am looking to sell. The media basket fits the Innovative Marine AIO line of tanks (has fit both my previous 10 gallon and current 25 lagoon). The basket is in good condition outside of a broken leg. I have since repaired the leg and you can hardly tell that it is there. Still functions as it should. Below are photos of the basket and the repair. Please let me know if you have any more questions or would like more photos. Asking $20+shipping. Thanks

Starting my build thread on Nano-reef since I just downsized but upgraded to an Innovative Marine Nuvo Fusion 40. My old, and first ever, tank was a 36x18x18 non-drilled tank that I had a HOB overflow box with a wet/dry sump that was very noisy and very low quality. Since I was unhappy with my Frankenstein set up and I wanted a tank that would be easier to move by myself since I am graduating college soon. I opted for an IM Nuvo 40 since the LFS I work at had the peninsulas and they seemed to be quality tanks. Many online forums had good reviews for the tanks as well so I ordered one. I then switched everything from my 50 to the new 40 in one day.... I had created a small cave with some epoxy and old live rock for my eel then the rest of the rock was taken from my 50, I bought 40 lbs of Fiji Pink sand since I did not want to mess with my old sand. I put the water, rocks with coral, and fish into a garbage can while I took the 50 off the stand and put the 40 on.
