Euro reef has the ES5 series now which would probably make a nice unit. ooops u already bought one. my bad i can tell you from experience i spent more for my skimmer than on the wife for v day

Mango sorry about the clown. I have a 10yr old tomatoe clown that about 2 wks ago just stopped eating and is hanging in the same spot all the time. Her male mate appears fine and eats normal. i started feeding her some live blk worms and see eats a few but not near what she used to eat. i keep...

Thanks for the info. the southbay is quite a bit cheaper(price that is) than the euro-reef

has anyone had any experience with the SouthBay skimmers sold by Jeff. I was wondering if they are as good as the Euro-reef as they claim

from what i have seen so far,JEF says the CS6-1 is rated for 200gals and the CS6-2 for 250 gal. so then wouldn't the CS6-1 already be larger than what i need. or is that 200gal rating not to be believed?

I was looking at the Euro ES5-2 for my 55 gal also. but i hope to soon upgrade to a 90 gal. Is this skimmer to small for this? It's within the upper end of my price range for now but i could hold off for a few more months to get the CS6-1. the 55 has no skimmer now at all. I have lots of...

I was thinking the 90 also but wasn't sure with the vho lights. Plan on LPS corals prodominatley but would also like to eventually get a clam or 2. Do you think the VHO's will work for this. I could put the higher light level corals towards the top as suggested. How about the holes at the top...

thinking about replacing my 55gal with a 75 or 90 gal tank. trying to get a wider tank but because it sits in my kitchen can't go wider than the 18" of the 75 or 90. does anybody have an preference? was going to have it drilled at the top rear of the tank to plumb for the sump. should i also...

bulb tip! ok gtoca now. told you it was a dumb question

Thats an awesome tank. hope its setting on concrete. oh to dream of such a tank. keep us posted on the progress.

ok here is the dumb question. whats a BTA

:P great tank, looks like it's been up for years. moved up from smaller tank?

:D Well i'm glad to hear everyone has a day night temp swing. I was a little worried that i had a swing from 78 before lights on in the morning to 82 before lights out at night. sounds like this is the norm

The wife and i will be there. First MACNA! I too was wondering what i should bring, i mean besides the credit cards?

Is it the U Tube on the overflow that accumulates air and restricts the flow. If so i had this problem also and solved it by increasing the return flow back to the tank. What happens is the is not enough flow thru the U tube so small bubbles can gather at the top of the tube. More flow will...
