Default For sale: Fish's Two Gallon Cube

Hello all,

I am selling my 8" Starfire cube along with the eheim 2128 thermo filter that runs it. The cannister filter has been fitted with submersible pond lights which allow you to grow chaetomorpha inside (included are 4 replacement bulbs). I also have a 13w power compact desklamp (which would be fine for growing softies) which comes with the original 6700k bulb and two 50/50 10000k/actinics (one used for a couple months, one never used). I can also include the desklamp fixture that I am currently using to house my 70w metal halide. I will need to keep my halide for my new system but it is all ready for you to drop a new retrofit inside it.

Asking $250

I have discovered that I am not truly happy unless I am in the process of building a system and because of finances, I have to sell my current one before I start on another project. You can see this system in my videos or check out the threads. It is currently the Thread of the Month at Reef Central.

Cheers,

- Chad

Sorry to hear you are selling this system! I have enjoyed your posts about it here and on reefcentral.
How difficult would the system be to install?? For example would it just be drilling a couple of holes in a stand, or something more complex to get this tank set up??

fakename,
Thanks. I will really miss this tank (and all the attention that went along with it ) but I guess I enjoy building a SW tank more than I enjoy keeping one... The system is all ready to go. It just needs a couple holes drilled in whatever you put it on, connect the hoses to the bulkheads, then fill it up with water. I can include the LR rubble and chaetomorpha inside the filter as well.

Mark,
Haha thanks man. Hey, I didn't know that you played bf2. Sweet! My profile name is {YYC}Fish and I play on teamspeak with a group of guys.
Send me a PM if you want to team up some time.


Beverly,
That's another reason too. I have already shot this nano from every conceivable angle

Cheers,

- Chad

Some pictures:

Baisically how it works:




Execept the tank now comes with the larger filter seen on the left (you can see the submersible chaeto lights in the foreground):


You can also have the original filter as well if you want it... has a hole in the top from being drilled for the chaeto lights though)


A look at the lamp (I have two of these bulbs):




You can also have the halide-ready fixture (sorry I have to keep the halide):





And you can also have Towser the tabby cat. She has been spayed and is great with kids:



No, seriously, my wife doesn't like her.


Cheers,

- Chad
