Some equipment needed

[jikm2187]

So I decided today that the 40 breeder I bought to use as a sump, then changed my mind to frag tank, is now becoming a display tank. Later to become frag tank again. So, naturally I need some stuff.

1. a hole saw. Would really like to borrow for like a day or two
2. I need a new light. I want mh/t5 on this bad boy. Need some actinic in my life. So any pendents/fixtures you has laying around let me know.
3. Bulkheads. I don't want to wait a week for them to get here. So if you can tell me where I should go locally. Awesome.
4. An mp10!! I want to trade. So let me know what you want!!

I think this is it... For now anyways...

1. Glass hole saw?
2. I have a 250 DE MH pendant w/ballast (needs new bulb)
3. The Aquarium Connection on Papermill has bulkheads.
4. I have a MP-10 that I would consider bargining with.

Rob can I come over when you get off today? First and foremost I need to take care of some coral. Second, I need to get some Of this stuff off you...

 

[Rob.D]

I get off duty at 8pm, your more than welcome to come by.

 

[jikm2187]

Anyone know if the aquarium drills tanks?

 

[Rob.D]

No, but Mark at Aquatic Marine has a full set.

Ok, I will trade you two bulkheads for the shockfire and roid rage frags....:clap2:

What size bulkheads are you after? I have a few new ones that I keep around for spares that you can take and then just replace when yours come in. Unless you do want to trade the shockfire then you can just lkeep them. :xd:

lol!!!! Those must be some nice bulkheads you have!

 

[jikm2187]

Lol. Do any club members work at the aquarium on paper mill. I am just going to order them, drop the tank off at a glass shop and in a week pick it up.

 

[jikm2187]

Can someone please tell me where in east tn I can get on of these made. I had a lengthy conversation with a rep from the aquarium and when I got irritated enough I hung up. I want it to have teeth like any stock drilled tank not a window where you put a screen which inhibits protein skimming in my eyes.

If you have a drilled tank and it has cracked glass you can't sell it. Please take this piece out and sell it to me!!!

+1 on the Glass-Holes.com for overflow kit...

 

[jikm2187]

I'm just going to make my own today. I'm picking the tank up in about an hour. My goal was to have nothing on the back. Cuz I was considering going hob overflow, but I really hate the look

Where did you find your 40 breader without a tempered glass bottom? What Brand?

Aqueon 40 breeders from Petco don't have any tempered panels according to their website.

Yep, they don't. We cut overflow holes recently in one and it's not tempered.

Glad I didn't try mine. My lifereef overflow isn't that bad of an eyesore to me.

Aqueon. Picked up for $40 on sale. Picked up the tank today. I am going to start a build thread. I doing what I can to make it look professional. I have for real OCD about thing. So far my DIY weir/overflow is coming out great. Tomorrow the stand and tank will be done then onto setting it up and flip flopping livestock and water...
