I still have my HOB fuge too (got the medium). They're really nice. I even kept it after I got my huge Ace Sump/fuge. Maybe I ought to simplify too...

Good luck with the sale. I really really loved the aqua fuge when I had a 30 gallon tank and no sump. I am guessing that scenario is what they really were made for. :)

Yeah, I was tempted to sell it when I set this tank up but decided to use it to help kick start the system. I have had trouble letting it go because I love it so much...it's just so darn cool. But, I guess I don't need it and wouldn't mind cutting down on the amount of un-necessary equipment hooked up.

I re-worked all of my power this past weekend and was able to toss 3 power strips and two timers from the system along with a useless power head. I also cable managed everything...it looks nice now : )

Honestly $75 for the fuge is nothing in my eyes and it is worth even more to me than what it costs new... I think you know what I mean. but, yeah, time to let it go.

Yes I even had mine on craiglist with a bunch of other stuff, got an inquiry and took it back off because I couldn't let it go. :blushing:

Good for you for getting stuff cleaned up. :thumbs_up:

That is what has kept me from posting it before... I thought I wouldn't be able to follow through with the sell. Glad I'm not the only one attached to a HOB fuge! Kind of like a binky! haha! Trying to get my son off of one for the last couple of weeks.

I can't believe that you are going to get rid of it after we spent all oftha time measuring and placing the tank the EXACT distance from the wall so that it would fit! lol

Well, who knows I might not even be able to move it since it fits so perfectly... it's still hooked up and I'll keep it going until someone wants it.

It drains into my returns and makes a loud gurgling noise and I can not position it to drain to the main display because of my returns... so that's another reason aside from becoming a neat freak with the tank.

BUMP. Will deliver anywhere in San Antonio. I want this gone.

Sapphire Aquatics BC29 Skimmer For sale/trade, $75. I currently have this skimming on my 144g in the sump, obviously it was not made for this size tank but it's better than nothing. It was custom made for a BioCube 29. However, I had it skimming on my 75gallon pretty efficiently for about 6 months.
