JBJ 36 watt actenic Blue CFL straight pin lamps $8.00 each, I have 8 of them.



Hamilton 250 X 2 MH SE + 96 X 2 power compact hangable hood with fans $150

Any coral, regardles of light demand, will flourish under these lights. I run 2X250 on my 6' tank and my entire electric bill for the tank is $105/ month uses 300 KWH/ month @$0.35

lamps included are in good shape to like new sets: Hamilton 14k, JBJ 20K (pictured), XM 10K, unknown looks 14K, several others You won't need to buy bulbs for years. florescents still have 6 months on them and cost $30 to replace from marine depot.


There are some scuffs on it, the sides are much better than the top and the camera really shows them off, easily buffed out with acrylic tank polishing kit.






PFO 250X2 M58 ballest Used it to setup my reflectors for a week or two before I switched to electronic ballast. Grow any SPS, clam or whatever you want with Halide $50




Unused lab grade temp probe for neptune ACIII or ACIII pro $15 each




Hydor Korelia 4 12 watts, 1200 GPH This one has never been wet. I'll include 2 used impellers and shafts $35



ARO electronic 250 watt Halide ballasts fully tested and work great $15 each or $40 for 3

So without twisting facts and figures. How much have you spent on your $1500 tank? This sales thread alone is $894. It's all good and I'm all for getting rid of crap to fund other crap but you've far exceeded your budget.

$1,300 out of pocket. How much from sold goods? I got some rock in a bucket if you want it. Not great rock but rock.
I dont know how much I spent on dry goods Vs live goods, I didnt track that metric but all the purchases and sales were chronicled in concurant threads on R2R and RC. I did sell $85 in a TLF reactor and some frags on CL that I didnt update yet from last weekend

But yes, I built that whole setup for less than a pair of XR30 pros LOL

I do appreciate the offer on the rock, I really like the aquascape as it is, it is open and gives the acropora lots of room to grow. I do need bigger rubble rock to mount frags on. I hate frag plugs.
