Royal-Exclusiv / Vertex Cone Coming Soon!!!!

[Jeremy B.]

If this ends up being 3 months then I'll let all of you come to Indianapolis and personally beat me over the head!

In all honesty, I really don't think it will come to that.

 

[Treg]

You better hope not. I'm only 3 hours away!! :lol:


I will be driving thru indy tomorrow night actually.
(man that new Lucas stadium is a huge!)

 

[jthomps123]

Just placed the order for mine!
I was so close to pulling the trigger on a Hurricone or SWC cone right before I heard about these. These seem like a great deal at the intro price!

Thanks for answering my questions Jeremy!

 

[Jeremy B.]

No problem at all, thank you for the pre-order! If you have any ?'s at all please let me know!

Thanks,
Jeremy

I am about 2 hours away if that. I will bring the foam bat.

 

[ostrow]

Foam? I just bought my son a brand spankin' new aluminum baseball bat. I think I'll bring that. And I don't even want another needlewheel skimmer! This is just for the sport of it!

Guys....

There has been some talk on a couple of different forums now about the neck on the medium being 6" diameter at the top, and this skimmer being "too big" for anything under 180gal - 200gal. I can tell you for a fact that is just flat out FALSE! The one or two people claiming this have never seen the skimmer even being ran, other than the 2-3 photos that have been posted of it. The skimmer has been tested running on a system that is 400L, which is just over 100gal, and running extremely well. Stock load is moderate on this particular system as well.

I hope this clears up some of the false statements that have been made about this unit so far.

Thanks,
Jeremy

Well I hope I did not imply a fact but a question. A 6'' neck seems to be large so I was worried that it would be to large for a 150 total tank. Of course I have not seen one in person but I would hate to order one and it be to big for my system. If it is comparable to a SM200 and read back of a guy who had a 120 gallon tank and Klaus stated a Mini 180 max and he had SP

 

[moondoggy4]

sorry S I guess when something is new there is a lot speculation and fear if the skimmer will be the right size. I have already one skimmer that is moth ball because it is to large for my system so I would hate to make the mistake again. I hope this clears up my thoughts.

A big Cone on a small Tank ? No Problem : change the Impeller and the nozzle, so the rating go down...

regards.. Klaus

jeremy,

it seems there are many reefers eager to buy a ticket for indy with Batfish in hand ready to make your offered head into a Cone

 

[Jeremy B.]

Haha... it appears I better be looking over my shoulder!

I think we could turn that into a pay-per-swing event for charity!

We did leave the foam padding on that support column we had to wrap you up on last time.

Thanks Klaus

...so...will we need to buy a new impeller/nozzel, do they come with the skimmer, or will this be a simple adjustment/twist to affect water / air draw?

 

[Jeremy B.]

There will only be one venturi and one impeller supplied. Klaus is referring to the "recommended" range, rather than stating you would NEED to go with a smaller venturi and impeller for the skimmer to work well on a smaller tank.

 

[hansmatt]

ahhh, got it. Thanks Jeremy

 

[rob020880]

When might the smaller ones come out I don't think this one will fit my sump.

I almost bought a mini but looks like I may have to wait.

The footprint will be right at 14.5" x 12".

I am having my sump built and wonder if this is going to accurate enough to build around. The 14.5" dimension will not be an issue as the sump is 20" But I don't want to run into trouble with the 12" dimension.

I will probably add 2" to whatever it is supposed to be just in case.

How about it Klaus can you give us a heads up on needed space in sump?
Ich werde Ihnen ein Bier kaufen, wenn Sie mich diese Dimensionen erhalten können.
