I notice it's got a float valve switch, does it turn the pump off when the cup gets too full then? Just curiuos....
I guess I could check the ATB site but I figure I'd ask you, lol!

Well, if that's the case that's pretty cool!
Thats good news
Yep. I still need to raise it a bout 1.5 inches, but I wanted to get it done this morning before we go to my buddy's wedding.
Thats what I was thinking. I have been debating a new controller anyways, so this should inspire me to move in that direction.
Thanks Dan, I got the 1080 deluxe internal. This thing is a beast. My water level raised by a 1/2" in my sump by the extra water that was left over from the H&S. Lets see here....more air/water turnover through the skimmer and less water....Yep, I'm pretty stoked right about now
In my camera :lol: I'm getting ready to head to another reefers weeding today. I wonder how many other styro boxes they will getting :crazy1:

Drooooool, I've been looking at the ATB Deluxe 10.5 internal (I think that's what you've got there) for quite awhile. Have yet to hear any real user experiences about it though. I've only heard rave reviews on the standard ATB 1050 version. So this deluxe should be incredible. Congrats! Can't wait to hear what you think about it.
BTW, I read to avoid the vinegar bath on these.. It will actually prolong the break in.

Thanks stealle, Its even more impressive in person
At only 3 hours, there is already a foam head building. I'm curious to see what it looks like when I get home this evening.

There is nothing like a SPS tank with VHO's making the neighborhood look like black lights
Yeah, that is how other saltwater guys find my house!! Look for the blue glow. I am a VHO guy myself. I tried the t5's but not the same:wave:
