  1. CPR Aquafuge with new Mineral Mud

    no, i'm not shipping to nigeria in exchange for a cashier's check.
  2. CPR Aquafuge with new Mineral Mud

    bump best offer. this thing is taking up space in my office and it's pissing me off.
  3. CPR Aquafuge with new Mineral Mud

    Small CPR Aquafuge, unscratched and very clean, with pump. Used briefly but never filled with anything, just ran for about 4 months for extra capacity and to hide heater. Bought the Mineral Mud but never got around to setting up a proper refugium. Water Capacity: 2.50 Gallons...
  4. Pagoda & Frogspawn - FS - Florida, NY

    let me know if other offers fall through. pm sent. also, i'm local (goshen).
  5. Live Rock - Mixed Cured Timora/Kaelini arriving today

    I was able to refuse shipment. Cured rock is unsuitable for my purposes (extracting DNA from marine bacteria). I need something as close to a natural sample as possible. The last time around PA was able to get me rock within 4 days from ocean to my door, and it looked it. I apologize for...
  6. Live Rock - Mixed Cured Timora/Kaelini arriving today

    I'm looking to get rid of some rock which is arriving today from Premium Aquatics, because they're sending me cured instead of uncured. I'll be putting it straight into buckets of water as soon as it arrives, and I'll save the packing material if needed for transport. Local pickup, Orange...
  7. calcium

    precipitation doesn't always mean snow. if you've ever seen white stuff on your powerhead impeller magnets or heater, that is "precipitation". basically, precipitation is the formation and growth of crystals and can actually happen at a very slow rate. point is, i think your white spots...
  8. 60G AIO Setup

    i have to flake, errr i mean back out already. wifey nixed the idea of an open top tank because we have a toddler and infants who will be crawling soon... so SORRY. however, it's a gorgeous tank and it looks well constructed. if you know where i might be able to order something like this...
  9. 60G AIO Setup

    hi: i'm very, very interested with cash in hand. but i have a few questions: is this a brand new tank as pictured or has it been run? how long? (concerned about lack of bracing, to be honest). any scratches? who made it? what kind of acrylic? very cool setup, and with such a clean...
  10. Denitrifying filter system

    just google "reagent grade methanol", it's not illegal to buy. any of the typical scientific suppliers carries it (VWR, Wards, Sargent Welch, etc.) probably worth the stretch. i bet it would work better than whatever "food" they supply that denitrifier with. inorganic carbon is used more...
  11. Denitrifying filter system

    I agree. It's unfortunate that these companies treat these components as if they are proprietary when they actually aren't; they're simply secret. There's a difference, you can't patent bacteria unless you've genetically modified a strain. However, keeping the strains used in devices like this...
  12. Eric Borneman coral controversy

    i dunno, didn't some dude dream up an idea about using old tires to build reefs? that destroyed hectares of reef, and that "technique" employed worldwide has been devastating. all he did was say "my bad" and all was well... anyhow, CIBTL?
