    125 Tank, stand, hood in Illinois

    As stated earlier, I'm in Bloomington, IL. That's a good haul from Louisville...about 5 hours according to Mapquest.

    125 Tank, stand, hood in Illinois

    Yes, I'm sorry but I'd like to move it soon. We are having a 240 delivered by our local reef store in a couple of weeks and they will be taking the 125 back with them to sell in the store if we don't sell it first.

    125 Tank, stand, hood in Illinois

    No overflows, just a regular tank. It has no scratches and is in good condition. It will need new plastic strips on the glass hoods unless you want to use the holes that have been cut for the filters that I used. The glass hoods themselves also have typical salt deposit on them, but have no...

    125 Tank, stand, hood in Illinois

    I have a 125 gallon Perfecto brand tank for sale in Bloomington, Illinois (about two and a half hours south of Chicago.) I just have the tank, pine stand, glass hood, and flourescent strip light for sale. It's about a year and a half old, but only had fish in it for a little over a year...

    Guest's reaction to your tank?

    I never really get anything besides passive interest. We used to have the 125 in a spare bedroom, and I think the most we got out of guests was, "Huh, that's a big tank" because I think we only had about 4 or 5 guests who actually saw it. Then we have family members who don't care about the...

    Wormy rock

    Someone in another forum had mentioned wrasses as well, which is a great thing because I am in love with Fairy Wrasses. I had already planned on keeping some. It's an added bonus that they help control pests!! Thanks for the help....

    Wormy rock

    R/O, salt, just like I would use in the DT. I've been told that without adequate light to the bottom of the trash can, the worms and other organisms will die off anyway. While that isn't really what I want, it's not a huge issue to me because I will also be using some rock that I am getting...

    Wormy rock

    Hello all I managed to score a GREAT deal on a batch of live rock that will come in very handy in the 240 gallon that my husband and I are in the process of setting up. I found an ad placed by a co-worker in my company's newsletter advertising 125 pounds of live rock for $200. When I actually...

    Sumpless Skimmer?

    I have seen some models advertise that they can be run in-sump or out-of-sump. Is that not true?

    RO Filtration System Recommendation

    Thanks for the info. Is the water quality itself for each model about the same? I have noticed that they are pretty much the same price. ($10 difference.)

    New Reefer in the Making!!

    Aw, it would just beak my heart to use my beautiful 125 as a sump! We do have a sump built for the 125 already, but I think it may be too small (It's a standard 55 gallon tank with baffles inside.) I may have no choice but to consider a bigger sump before we set the 240 up. However, the 125 is...

    New Reefer in the Making!!

    I am soooooooo stoked......after many years of doing FOWLR, my husband and I have decided to take the step into reefkeeping. We ordered a pair of Aqua-Medic metal halide pendants a few weeks ago for our 125 gallon, and from there the whole thing has exploded. This weekend we upgraded our 125...
