    Finally took the plunge and started cleaning out the back room and the accumulation of fish tank supplies I have collected. I am open to trades, and any offers on this stuff.
    Euroreef RS180 skimmer - $80
    Euroreef skimmer, I believe it is a 250. This one has a couple issues, but it still functions fine. Needs an O-ring for the collection cup. The cup has a crack that needs glued up. The pump has a broken tab on the inlet. - $50
    RO/DI unit. Similar to the air, water, ice compact 75gpd unit. I added the DM1 Dual inline TDS meter. It needs new filters, and may be needing a couple fittings. I'll sell it for the cost of the TDS meter - $30
    Reef Octopus BH100F HOB skimmer - $60
    6ft Power compact 4 bulb light fixture with moonlights. Not sure the brand on this, or the bulb age. All the bulbs fire fine, and 3/4 of the moonlights are working. - $50
    175w metal halides.  3 spider reflectors, 1 dual ballast and 1 single ballast. Everything fires fine. I'll throw in whatever 175w bulbs I have laying around. - $25
    Aqua logic inc. 1/5hp drop in chiller. It turns on when I plug it in, no idea if it actually cools. - $20
    Box of random buffers/additives. 2 part, liquid calcium, various buffers, carbon, water conditioner, stuff like that. No picking and choosing, take it all - $ FREE
    Box of heaters. I know some of them work, some of them may not work. Again no picking and choosing, all or nothing - $ FREE
    I think that's everything for now. I may add more as I continue to clean.
    I'm in NE Cedar Rapids. Call or text me if you're interested in anything. (515)770-1269

    Had several people interested in the chiller. First one to come see it with cash in hand takes it.
    I should be around and available all day. Just shoot me a text or call. I am usually pretty good about getting to those.

    I'll be working...wait until after 4:30 to bug me. And I wouldn't count on the bulbs being any newer. I would say save your money and invest it into the new bulbs you need, and not another fixture that you don't really need.

    Did you get a bigger tank Travis? Dont think a 6 foot light would work to well on a 55 gallon tank.
