    I've had a aquac ev120 for about 3 1/2 years.It's my first skimmer so I can't compare it to any other.what I can say is,after a short 2 week break in period and some adjusting it's been running strong for the whole time.

    Sureflow Maxi Jet Mod

    I've seen magnets online with epoxy and rubber coatings. I'm going to use the epoxy ones and also dip them in that plastic dip stuff for tool handles at h.d.. that should keep the rust out. the magnets will be my second option. I use acrylic to make powerhead holders. I'll bend some up and see...

    I have a 48'' orbit extreme comp. flouresent light. last weekend I took the fans completly out and cleaned them,they were really dusty. It took about a half hour. a million screws to remove, but pretty easy. If you do a search, you should be able to find those exact fans for about $22.00 and...

    modding a maxi jet mod

    I have a couple of maxi jet 1200 mods on order for my 90gal. reef.I've read some posts that say the flow from their mods were too strong and kicked up a sand storm, so they went back to reg. powerheads. there's got to be a way to throttle the flow back some. my idea is to cover some of the...

    Sureflow Maxi Jet Mod

    that sounds like a good idea, but I'm not sure I'd like a powerhead near the front glass. there's got to be a way to defuse the flow. maybe some sort of screen type material I can put on it to get the flow just right. I'm sure someone's allready done this, just waiting for them to chime in.

    Sureflow Maxi Jet Mod

    I'm getting the eco. mods with swivel mount for $17.00 each and magnets for $5.00 each, that's $27.00 each for the complete setup. I think that's a good deal. my concern now is the noise,vibration and sand storms that some people are experiencing and how to deal with it.

    Sureflow Maxi Jet Mod

    240 gal. is a hugh tank, I can see them working for you.but anybody out there running 2 1200's in a 90gal. or so? also, I'm thinking of using diy magnets to attach the powerheads, 4 magnets for about $20.00 to save some money. besides rust, is there a downside to mounting powerheads this way...

    pickeling lime in philly area.

    called 2 health food stores in the area, they both said, Pickeling lime? what's that for? I guess canning and pickling ain't a city thing. I'll see if I can order a small amount online.
