I'm heading a study at my school based on reef conservation, and i'm in the process of setting up our system. The main "viewing" tank is a 29G tall 30" tank. I'm looking to put a 30" 346 Watt odyssea metal halide lighting system on and the sump will be out on the side with red mangroves and hopefully several long spine urchins. the study is based on Florida species, but other endangered/threatened species may be used depending on permits and availability. I'm asking anyone here if they can help with supplies, anything just laying around not being used, lighting similar to the above, skimmers, reactors, LS/LR, salt, RO/DI (i'm pretty sure we have a DI filter for our chem labs so we don't need any more of that). Just about anything will help and once the system is set up livestock donations will be accepted depending on specimen (reef safe only). The total system gallonage will be right around 75-85 gallons. Any and all contributions are extreamly helpful!! Thanks in advance!
 
I am assuming you are a graduate student or or latter if you are heading a study. I would imagine if I was in your position I would post some more details such as the name of "my school" and other credible sounding information. Sorry I don't have any equipment for you.. just a semi smart-a$$ remark. Good luck to you
 
I have a few things I might be able to donate,need info and i would like to stop by and check out the project in person aswell.

I'm a sophomore at Glenbrook North Highschool, I had the idea a few months back and got it rolling after about a week, now in the process of starting up the system which will most likely be up for years to come so future students can enjoy the ocean without having to leave their own state and to teach people who arn't physically in contact with the ocean the importance of saving reefs. You can come whenever only your going to need to sign in with the office, and ill have to notify the science department head in advance.
