Maxi Jet 1200's

[rljlll]

does anyone have any of these laying around that they would sell?

 

[Aaron]

I could use one also...

 

[DjScibbity]

$21 on bigalsonline.com. Free shipping on orders over $50. I ordered one and a few other things. Pretty easy to get up to $50

[rwessels]

And how do you get free shipping on orders over $50?

If Your Order Totals: Your Shipping Fee Will Be:
$35.00 or less $7.45
$35.01 to $50.00 $8.45
$50.01 to $75.00 $9.45
$75.01 to $100.00 $10.95
$100.01 to $150.00 $11.95
$150.01 to $250.00 $12.95
$250.01 or more $13.95

Never mind, I see the promotion has ended.

 

[DjScibbity]

Doh, I think the promotion just ended today, but on a plus note, you can price match BigAls ($21) to Dr. Fostors Smith ($17) and Big Als will then sell it for 10% less, making it about $15 and change. They should run a free shipping event in a couple months...seems like they always do it every couple months. Hope this helps

DjScibbity

can you try to explain the whole price match thing again i got lost

 

[lhoo]

Dr's foster and smith is currently selling the mj1200 for $16.99

Big Als does price matching, plus they'll beat the price by 5%. see here
under Guaranteed lowest price http://www.bigalsonline.com/content.xml?cid=vipinfo

 

[rljlll]

but Big Als does not carry mj 1200's

 

[DjScibbity]

Yes they do. They are under "Aquarium Systems" (Instant Ocean) under the water pumps & powerheads link. I bought a MJ900 and MJ1200 from them.

Are you adding them to a wave maker? Just wondering. I use 4 in a 60 with the wavemaster pro and they are the only pump I know of that can run dry on the counter for an hour and still work without burning up. I am very pleased with them. One thing I added that really helps is the Hydor attachment allowing each to spin out the water in a circular direction as they pump.

Sorry with the mods ill be getting each mj 1200 will be running at about 1,600GPH so i can not use that Hydor i have thought about the a wavemaster or another controller but don't know much about them

 

[Aaron]

cool, let me know... that mod look nice too.

i'd definitely get a wave controller (or X-10 modules) to control the flow more like the real ocean.

so many people just blast water in one direction all the time... not at all what the ocean is like.

 

[rljlll]

what is an X-Module?

 

[cmontgomery]

I have 3 or 4 laying around I could part with.
