I bought the deal on ebay, it's from http://www.thelebos.com/ It seems to be pretty good, i haven't tried it yet. It is nice to have a printed manual in front of you. I could have just gone to garf and printed it I'm sure, but their site is so confusing and self serving, i didn't bother.

Well it's nice to have company. If the RC folks are following this thread, I should mention that I am not on the west coast, but in Southern ontario

Weird, I just checked it from my computer at work and it's fine. At home it won't find the site Hmmmm??

Or is it just me? Not that I don't enjoy this board, but I haven't been able to get on it in several days. Thanks

Use the auto waste collector and you won't have a problem. http://www.reefconcepts.com/products/skimmers/accessories/autowaste/ They should include that with skimmer with this new design. Interesting concept removing the cup, With the success of the aerofoamer series, I doubt they would make...

That's kind of what I thought, doesn't off gas the co2, but it likely does a great job recirculating water through a large amount of media

That's what i thought it looked like. I've always wondered why in the 2 stage reactors, that water isn't also circulated through the second chamber instead of just flowing through it like most.

I was looking at the plumbing with the pump. Do you circulate between the 2 chambers? Or the pump circulates in 1 chamber then water goes to the second chamber to off gas?

I bought a cheap membrane online. After battling phosphates and silicates, I am back to the not as cheap spectrapure filters. Don't waist you money on cheapies, it's worth it to buy quality products for the things that will impact your tank the most. My 2 cents Derek

Probably one of the best mixed reef tanks I've ever seen, weel done :D

I recently got a Southbay cs12-1 with sedra 7000 upgrde pumps. Works great, made well, very happy. :)

In less than 2 years, I've had 4 Ocellris clowns, a flame angel, a whelleri goby, and a royal gramma all jump out of my tank and come to a dry roasted finish. :( Why?... I do have 3 tangs (Naso, yellow and sailfin) a green chromi and a juvi emperor angel in there, but I have never seen 1 second...

Weird when you say between glass and overflow. Usually the overflow is a seperate section within the tank. Got any pictures?

Yep, in Joyce Wilkenson's book, She said the really the only success she has had with pairing up maroons is when there is a well established female already in a tank, then adding in a MUCH smaller juvenile to the tank. Probably because there is such an extreme size difference, plus the females...
