Just to clarify, the 6205 IS NOT available. The only one in the US is the one Steve has and it was a gift for volunteering to help Rodney at Reefapalooza. It is an early sample the 6205 is not in production yet. The 6105 has been coming in in very limited numbers, 52 have entered the US market so far.

Wow, so your saying that the 6205 are not even In production yet. How can retail companies take orders and preorders and people pay for a item that is not even in production. I think that this would be very unfair. They are some sites taking orders like if they are already availble

They will be available soon but we need a more robust motor coil that is not yet in stock. I don't any control over preorders, this is up to the individual dealer but since supply is usually very limited at first, if you need it ASAP it would be wise to have a preorder. I would not expect the 6205 to be a stock item until next Spring I would be surprised if we get more than 100 before Christmas.

yes I agree with you totally. I was reffering to the retailers being unfair

Thanks Steve. Your description has my mouth watering. Hopfully, the production model will have all the positive attributes of the one you received.

This makes me very sad. I pre-ordered four 6205s more than six weeks ago, expecting them to be available in November. Now the word is spring? Not so cool. I've got a new 375gal tank and no flow ....

When Roger said spring keep in mind he was referring to instock sitting on store shelves. If you placed a preorder depending on where in line you are with that particular vendor it would should likely be a good deal quicker than that.

Shawn is correct, we should likely start to fill orders for the 6205's in the next month, but as far as being able to order one online and have it sent out the same say or a LFS having one sitting on the shelf will most likely not happen until the spring.

If you pre-ordered yours six weeks ago, I would be willing to bet you are pretty high on the pre order list and would be one of the first to receive one.
