    Koralia 1 $30 (new 1 month use)
    mag float $5

    ( I want to say 2 are rio 600 and 1 is odysea 350 and 1 is a rio 2100)

    I also have various zoos that arent doing that well right now but I will be doing some water changes to see what I can do.
     PM me with any interests.
    I live in Cedar Rapids.

    That really unfortunate that you are giving up on your tank. Have you tried asking club members for help?

    What parameters are out of whack? I don't see a skimmer in your list... Are you not running one?

    If you are determined to sell, how much do you want for the Rio 2100?

    Are you sure you wouldn't rather get help to fix the situation? The club is really good at fixing these issues. There have been more than one person who put everything up for sale then got help, saved it all and now love the hobby more than ever.
    Give it good thought we are ready to help./site/DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif

    Thank you for the support from everyone with wanting to fix the issue first. I appreciate it. But the tank must go. I have put to much money into it, and even though I knew it when I got it, It really does take up a good portion of my time and life. Not that it really bothers me but my wife isnt to fond on the amount of $$$ I spend or the amount of time I spend trying to upkeep the tank. So yes it must all go.

    As for a protien skimmer, I was running one, it was the Bak Pak Protien skimmer that I am now selling. And boy that thing pulled out all kinds of stuff!!!!
    I think the main issue was, I am trying to run a coral tank with lr and fish, and it was to much bio load to keep up with. Even with water changes every two weeks. I also think the filters I was using was having a reverse effect and held onto to much of the nitrates. I never got a proper sump, and had I spent a good $200 or $300 more for a good one, I think I probably would have been good. But you all know that when you get spending, it dont just stop there!!!

    So as of for now, everything is still open for grabs. First come first serve.
