Not exactly what I asked the fish gods for but Ill take it!

Muhahahahaha...the pumps are flowing, water churning, lights a coming. Gonna cook that LR for a few mos, put it in a tub with nothing but actinics over it and just pour the purple up to it.

This is gonna be GREAT!!!! oOo! yeah!

I can leave the tank where it is for now. Im gonna get the LR out and sell the livestock. 7 fish have just outgrown the tank and the owner doesnt want to mess with it anymore. Not much for corals they are in pretty bad shape. 3 anemones all in bad shape. Probably just dispose of them. Kind of sad. The former owner is doing the right thing.

Gonna be an awesome weekend!

You should ask him how old the bulbs are and what kind. I am always looking for cheap PC bulbs..lol. And if you are selling the fixture how long is it(assuming 48 inches) because i would love another 2 bulbs for over my 55, so PM me or something when you have all the specifics.

Nice find Jim. We should all be jealous. Free reef tank setups don't come around often.
