please...when one of those skimmers can pull a gal./day at 105W, then I'll be impressed. The only advantage I see is that they can fit under a tank.

:lol: Jon... My protein skimmer can't fit under any stand except Steve Weist stand . it is 63" tall...

Reefaquariumnut the protein skimmer running with 6 pumps. I don't have to use all 6 but with a heavy bioload, it is good to have some juice on your protein skimmer to pull everything out.

Nick i really like the AB5000. At least it doesn't have the washer

Update... All the plumbing is done... the tank now officially start the cycle. I dosed 100ml zeobac, 60ml sponge power, 200ml start... I follow the 14 days zeovit cycle...

The 300g storage tank delivered today, still waiting on the T-5 bulbs...

Reactor with 5 ltr Zeovit

If I could ever build a reef tank without limits it would look like this setup...
I like it very much!

Jon, thank you very much.

Leon, thank you for the kind work.


BTW, i have an issue. None of my Sfiligoi fixtures come with the E-39 Mogul fitting. It comes with an E-40 I-T-A-L-I-A-N fitting. Boy i am beyond upset. Who in their right mind would do that. I cracked 2 Ushio bulbs trying to get it fit inside that tiny socket.

I understand the fixture use for 1000w MH but it is the same

Big different, IKEA is cheaper so you kinda expect that but this is $1299 per light.....

 

[GSMguy]

That is crazy must have been a mix up? What bulbs use that socket?

 

[Jar*Head]

I google the code (E-40) it showed Italian socket fitting...

 

[jnarowe]

It's times like that I get completely bent, swearing, breaking stuff, screaming at that stupid clownfish...

 

[GSMguy]

That Clownfish is laughing at you J, slowly digesting your knuckle skin laughing the whole time...

:lol: Why hurting yourself when it wasn't your fault? Why picking on a little clownfish

 

[jnarowe]

I thought ATI made in Germany lol.

Thank you for the kind word. With plumbing i like to keep it simple and user friendly just in case my wife need to do something for me while i am at work or away from home. ....

"Ditto!"

 

[Jar*Head]

Eric, i just finish sending you an email. The CJ stand pipe work very well for me. I don't have any noise coming from the overflow or the wavebox. Just make sure you have your overflow box teeth cut 1" lower than standard 1.5" then you will be fine..
