I want to switch my current setup into another tank (water volumn is the same, so its not really an upgrade... or a downgrade). Before I decide, I want to see what interest my hardware is going to generate.
33g (36"x12"x18") tank with center overflow and golden pseudo-wood trim - 50 dollars
33 gallon stand stained to match the tank's trim (about 28" tall) with 4 doors (2 front, and 1 on each side) - 50 dollars
15 gallon sump - 15 dollars
Buy the whole thing (tank, stand and sump) for 100 dollars (a steal IMO). Plumbing is not included.
I have a Bakpak 2R skimmer available as well. Works great for tanks under 50gallons. I upgraded the Rio pump to a MJ1200 with venturi kit about 2 months ago. Skimmer comes with both the Rio pump and the MJ1200. There are no missing parts, the skimmer is in excellent condition. Asking $120 OBO.
DIY Dual 250w MH ballast box with built in digital timers and moguls. Ballast box includes two M58 Probe Start ballasts, and a DC fan on the side for active cooling. Also includes four quick disconnects (2 for the lamps, two for power). Its been used for less than 2 weeks. Asking $250 firm. I had a price breakdown on my DIY thread, so people who have read it know that I'm only asking to cover the cost of building this setup (~260-270 dollars). Does not include reflector or bulb.
Workhorse 7 ballast - Will run any combination of PC, NO or VHO bulbs totalling up to 220watts. I've had it running since the middle of September. I bought it for around 60 dollars, asking for $40.
95watt VHO super actinic - Also been running since the middle of September. Asking $10 dollars.
1 Pair of Ice Cap end caps for the VHO. Asking $5 dollars.
Buy the whole thing (WH 7, bulb and end caps) for $40 dollars.
WH7, bulb and end caps on reserve

WH7 on top of the light holder.
FYI, I will only sell this stuff if I can generate enough interest on all of the components... I cannot setup a new tank (and keep my livestock alive) before this stuff is gone.
PMs only please.
Thanks for looking!
