Back from town with a 6er of Storm King! Also I'm ready to empty the waste collector from the Beckett skimmer and the EX2 has only collected water. You want an EX2 J?
 
Sherman just can't get away from that wicked beckett...he tries, oh how he tries, but well, the proof is in the cup. It's funny to see his sump with side-by-side skimmers, both of which are rated for tanks 3 x the size of his.

:lol: I thought your EX2 was skimming like a madman what happened Sherm?

It was! Until I put the Beckett online next to it that is. :p
 
Another split...gotta tag along some more for the ride...

Hope the whole crazing issue gets sorted out to your benefit, and every one elses...
 
Good to see you Jason. I know these splits can screw up the ol' subscriptions...

In case anyone cares, Sherman just had to be removed forcefuily by my LOVING wife. Turns out that 14 beers and 8 shots are too much for the old boy, and his pants started to smell bad.

He's a good guy though, and whatever you do, don't ask him about his sister. He's a little sensative about that deal. God love him though, he could kill you with his pinkie.
 
Ive been following along here. Sure makes my seio pumps that I bought 2-3 years back for 45 bucks look pretty good about now. I sure hope those guys do the right thing by you and replace your tank. I almost bought a Envision tank from James. I still wish I had saved my money a little longer and got the tank from him. He does beautiful work. Everyone down here in Portland uses him. But I like my new tank and the price was right. Patching a tank of that value like yours with a bandaid is not an option. Customer service should be number one priority with a new product. If they need to install new fans on their pumps for now on then at least everyone will know the problem of heat is no longer an issue and if something goes wrong in the future with their product everyone will know it will be taken care of. Thats how companys like Tunze and envision and others get their reputations of having integrity and honesty. This builds happy repeat customers.
After being in this hobby for 5 years I do a lot of reasearch on the message boards to get a lot of feedback on a product before I splash down hundreds for something. Hopefully this was only a isolated problem because I think those new powerheads are a great idea if the heat issues go away.

Thats my 2 cents for what its worth

Good luck

Heres a picture of my 55 gallon tank. I actually liked the colors of this tank better then my new bigger one. I think its just because I only had VHO for lights then. Now I have halide and VHO actinic.

Both tanks look very nice Jay. The small one is a pretty sweet mixed reef. I have never been able to keep much in the way of LPS or softies due to the way my system is designed, but I do appreciate seeing tanks like yours. Too bad you are so far away!
