MH won't be worth anything within 2 years because of LEDs (maybe even less)
Aquacontroller should be sold, its electronic and they always come out with better versions.
BK 180 you could keep because it seems skimmers last a long long time, not much change in the designs really or you could sell it and just go bigger later.

well moving it around isnt an issue im storing it at my parents house.
i see the point on the halides though. do you really think halides will be phased out in two years?
seeing as its just an aquacontroller jr. i might just keep that and use it for PH, temp and a light timer.
so i might just sell my halides and leep the rest
thanks for the help!

In this hobby... Your almost guaranteed to want new stuff 5 years later. Id sell everything I possibly could riht now while it still has some value... 5 years from now you'll be getting bargain basement prices for it while you drool over the shiny new stuff out.

Halides are way of the past in my opinion but I am a bit bias

LEDs are really starting to hit some insane numbers and colors so i doubt in 5 years you will see Halides for sale. Too much heat, too much cost too much power.

Keep the BK and sell the rest. In 5 years it'll be LED or plasma beam for lighting lol..

But the BK is like the ferrari of cars so it's worth keeping.
