I'm officially exiting the salt world and letting go of my tank with accessories and rock. Includes an older style sump, power head, return pump....
I've got a fair amount of live rock in Boone. Getting out of saltwater and back into fresh.
Do you have a picture? Or maybe a Google pic of a similar one?
Now that my 90 has stabilized, it's time to add coral. Looking for cheap or free beginners - tough and resilient. You don't learn to drive on a...
The sale is back on. Just got an email a couple minutes ago.

Ammonia level is practically zero, Nitrates are coming up a bit and Nitrites spiked, but seem to be dropping a little every day. I added some...
This is what I've got going for a filter/sump. There is a big rotating drum type filter just below the trays. No idea on the quality of this...
I may have to take you up on that when the time comes.
