Hmm I didnt get that one, I got the Sureflow version

 

[gkarshens]

Yeah he is the one that pointed me there. Do you like the one you got?

 

[bmwaaron]

Well after about a week of running the Sureflow I can tell you that I love it!
I have been running it in my Tank that Im cooking some new rock in.
The pump is very quiet and creates a ton of flow.
I may buy the one you have to compair since I want a second one anyways.

Ok just ordered the one from Triton with the Magnet.
Ill let you know if I experience any diffrence but they are probably all the same thing with the only diffrence being the magnet.

 

[jnarowe]

hope you got the right one from Triton. That wacky site also sells the Eco-Mod which totally bites IMO. The Triton and Sureflow are very good. Not as good as tyhe Great Dahn Nguyen's mods, but good enough.

 

[gkarshens]

Yeah, I am still really happy with mine. One of them has a little trouble going the right direction every once in a while, but eventually corrects itself.

On an update note: I have been blaming the largest Anthias with the death of the other 3 since it is the only fish I had seen be aggressive. However, now that it is the only Anthias left, it has chunks missing in it's tail. So now I am thinking it must be one of the Wrasses. I have no idea which one since I have never seen one be aggressive.

when I watch my wrasses eat, and especially the mysteri, it can swallow stuff bigger than its own head. Then it swims around looking like a boa with a lamb in it.

 

[gkarshens]

:lol: Nice imagery.

Still looking better and better. I remember when you were just building the stand. Did you ever run an exhaust through the attic?

 

[jnarowe]

it's what I do.

Thanks! No I never needed to. My tank stays at 80 with the use of fans and a heater. I have 4 fans in the canopy and 1 in the stand. They are all pretty quiet and I can comfortably watch TV with them on.

 

[MyMonkey]

Thanks... I was too lazy to read through the entire thread.

 

[gkarshens]

So my last Anthias bit the dust yesterday. I thought that the big one was bullying the others. Now that I watched him die slowly with rotting fins and big white raw patches on his sides I am wondering if there was some kind of parasite that only Anthias were susceptible to. None of my other fish seem to be affected in anyway.

 

[jnarowe]

sorry to hear that Gabriel.

 

[fishypets]

Hey Gabe I didn't know your tank was on wood floors. I as well have wood floors and was worried about the weight of a 200 gallon tank sitting on a self -leveling stand. What are your thoughts?

 

[cbui2]

omg bummer sorry for your loss Gabriel, did any other fish get infected?

 

[gkarshens]

Thanks guys.

None of the other fish have shown any signs of sickness or distress.

Clint, I think it will be fine. Especially since the stand will be able to be leveled. What kind of wood? That maybe the only issue is if the wood was soft and the legs sunk in.

 

[bmwaaron]

Hey Gabe I still haven't received my tritton kit. Its been 11 days now and haven't even got a conformation my order was received off the website.

 

[bmwaaron]

Hmm this could be bad news, The website is not even up anymore.

 

[jnarowe]

what site Aaron? Triton?
