Just wondering what every one would reccomend. I had a seaclone 150 and it didnt cut it I had alll kinds of trouble with it. I am getting back into the hobby little by little and I just want one that wont give me any grief. Thanks Dustin

aqua c remora is very good, but pricey....my choice would be a bakpak for"bang for your buck" comparison.....i have a seaclone 150 and i like it...not love it...but like it....i have to adjust every other day...but 10 seconds in 48 hrs isn't bad...it does pull out some nasty stuff

Thanks guys, I will try and go and look for the corallife one because here in south east Idaho well lets just say there arent any pet stores that carry anything fancy. And anything being well lets put it this way I couldnt even find sponge filters for my pleco fry tanks. Sad. SO I guess corallife it is. Thanks again. Dustin

Thats not a problem, I am a few months away from getting it started again. I have to get some new VHO bulbs, and I also have to get a decent skimmer before I start up again. I had a seaclone and it just didnt work out. So any ways, What kind of corals do you have? What kind of system are you running?
