For anyone using a Nova Extreme Pro on their Solana's, what bulbcombo do you use?

I know there arent too many options for the smaller 18" bulbs...I just got a NEP yesterday and i need new bulbs.

Thanks!

Is the Tunze Nano 9002 Skimmer from intank with the modified cup silent??
I have the stock skimmer with some mods and the noise of it is driving me crazy!

It's pretty quiet. Nothing is truly silent IMO but you probably won't notice it.

It's on back order. :lol: someday I'll get my skimmer.

I am probably going to borrow a Sapphire aquatics skimmer from a buddy of mine though.

Thanks Nova...Where did you get them??

 

[nova65ss]

Sorry Jadams marineandreef.com has the bulbs.

Anyone using this new reactor?

http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/minimax-desktop-all-in-one-media-reactor-innovative-marine.html

Thinking about taking out my media basket in the second chamber and running one of these. I have never used a reactor how much better would this work with gfo over the media basket with floss, carbon, and phosguard just sitting in a bag? Thoughts?

Thats pretty cool. It would be far more efficent than the media racks most of us are running.

If you get it let us know how well it fits!

It's pretty quiet, I read that the mod for the tunze makes it even quieter....I perosnally have no problem with it.
