    I received the skimmer in the mail. The only problem was on the pumps plumbing, the plastic thing that sticks out were you hook up the airline tubing was broken off so I will be sending it back for another one. Everything else seems fine. Also the stand should be ready shortly.

    update: I have decided I am going to go with a DAS EX2 for my skimmer. I have been reading about them and have heard nothing bad about them. So I will be placing my order sometime in the next few days. Also I finish the sump. I tested it and it is leak free. I still have to put a top flange...

    I would recommend going with a single 250w MH with a Lumenarc III reflector. You will get the coverage you want and also save electricity.

    yes I have looked at mrc's and etss. However I want to go with a needlewheel skimmer because they use less electricity and can work just as good as beckets.

    Update: This weekend I got a lot down. First I made a top flange for the refugium so it would not bow when it was filled with water. I began building and almost completed the sump. I hopefully will complete this week. In the picture it is on its side I also went to Lowes and picked up a...

    Which CL Pump?

    I am setting up a BB 150g SPS dominated tank. There will be an OM 4way on my CL. Now I can't decide if I should either get a sequence dart or barracuda. There is going to be about 5ft of head. Which one would you get? Thanks, Alex On Poll Hammerhead is supposed to be BARRACUDA
