Sean,
The zoos and rics are covering my live rock and would have to be scraped off with a knife - it was a package deal whether anyone liked it or not. I was able to sell my entire system to only three buyers and I made it clear throughout the thread that even their deals would be off if a buyer came along that wanted to buy the complete system. So no, I didn't make any promises to anyone until I said that the deal was done. The tank, stand, canopy, and lights all went too one buyer and they will work a deal out with the other intersted party. I'm sorry that you weren't able to buy zoos and rics at such a cheap price but I needed to sell everything and I needed to do it without any hassle. I'm sorry that you feel hurt that your offer was thrown away, but this sale wasn't about you.

- Chad

Pretty tank, nice corals. I don't think that I could have given it up if it were mine. You're a brave man. I hope you show us pics of your new nano. I expect it to be awesome.

Thanks Matthew,

Haha, this morning I woke up and thought "did that really happen yesterday?"
Yup I gues it did. Oh well, a bit of an adventure - I'll keep you posted.

But its your tank your way so you can do whatever you want. Im just a little hurt that my offer was thrown away.
The tank stand and canopy may have been sold as a package but then it was divided up between cindyt and myself. So it will still be sold for the same price he just isnt left with a tank or a stand.

I contacted Mark about some coral. He is an awsome guy an told me he would help me out the best he could

Sorry Chad I couldnt remeber what were u running for GPH on the closed loop?
Cant wait to get this tank. Thanks Chad

Yeah its fine ill contact beer guy and see if he wants to part with any of the corals. And as for a cheap price i was prepared to pay for anything the corals were attached to, you probly would have made more money selling the zoos and ric to me then you would have selling them all to beer master.

Haha, what I want to know is why I hardly get any responses to threads where I ask important reef questions or where I announce a new ground breaking technique... but I throw in the towel on my big sytem and the darn thing goes 4 pages .

Sean,
I can respect that. I probably should have clarified that you were not the only person interested in zoos and rics. I had a lot of PM's from forum members who wanted them... I am sorry to everyone that wasn't able to buy these corals. I just hope that no one cleans Mark out too quickly - he is now my new source for corals - a genetic backup bank for my nano .

As a result of the sale of my system I have gone ahead and bought a metering pump and a 70watt mh retrofit kit. Should have some updates soon.
Cheers,

Chad

What are you putting the 70w kit on? Is it for your really tiny tank? Also where are you getting it from

Hey Sean,
Yup I'm gonna throw the light overtop of this tank:



My current 13w pc just isn't cutting it for some of my corals.

I got the kit from here:

http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...e=STRK:MEWA:IT

It looks like a pretty good little retro, the only thing I would have liked differently is a 14k bulb instead of the 10k. Oh well, I guess I will have to wait until I replace it in a year.

- Chad
