This would work fine for a FOWLR tank that doesn't use MH and has a pretty constant heat load, the problem with Reef tanks is that you would have a large temperature swing. When the lights are on you have a high heat load when they are off you have a low heat load. You would have to use something like a Reef keeper to turn a separate pump on when the temp reaches a preset value to help regulate the temp. Then you also run the possibility of icing up the hose when the pump is off. Cool idea but I don't know how well it would work for a tank with Metal Halides.

Hmm I dont think we could both squeeze into the same seat Andrew I did think allot more people would be going.

Well is anyone going? I have a room reservation and wanted to know if someone wanted to split it with me. Let me know

No you dont have to have frags to attend. In fact if you dont have frags a swap is a great place to start. Rivercity will also be selling 200 ish frags so bring your wallet

Hey guys/gals I'm thinking we might start around 10AM or so. If anyone else has a tank they want to show off please reply so we can plan the trip around Austin. We may also stop for drinks after its over.
-
Do they sell water storage tanks like the tall slim 100-200 gallon variety?
-
Just wondering who all is going?
-
I think he was overskimming his tank.. It would have happend with any tank that has a oversized skimmer http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthre...mp;pagenumber=6 I have heard of this happening on other skimmers that were too big for there tanks also.

Yea I think that Deltec is to proud of there stuff. This is from RC the ap702 draws about 1800lph of air via 2 eheim 1260's(105 watts) the ati bm 250 will draw about 2000 lph via 2 sicci pumps (60 watts) the deltec replacement eheim pumps are over $400 ati sicci pumps are $150 to replace ati bm 250 Dimensions: 14.2" x 9.5" x 20.8" (L x W x H) deltec ap702 dimentions 19 x 19 x 24 (L x W x H) ati bm 250 $769 deltec ap702 $1,760 For the price the Deltec doesnt look very good comparied to the ATI.

I agree totally,,,,, Thats why I posted this on ARC and not RC because I didnt want a flame war. I just want to see what people are running in the area with a 180 to 200 gallon tank and if they like there skimmer. Should have posted the question better.
-
OK I am looking at skimmers again. I dint want Deltec so excluding Deltec what does everyone like? Was really looking at the ATI BM 200 or possible the Octopus Recirc 250. Any suggestions?
-
Count me in also
-
Very cool!!! I have noticed allot of that stuff going around online latley and very pricey also. Glad someone local is getting some so there is a chance for a frag later
-
Well I have had the yellow sponge from the start but I noticed Im starting to get some pink sponge also. Was wondering what color of sponge everyone else has. I would love to get some blue sponge if anyone has some.

Alternative To Coralife Timer/powerstrip
Bmwaaron replied to Headless_donkey's topic in Reef Keeping
But remember that the Coralife time does day and night cycles by alternating the four sockets on the right. -
I can wait until next week. I am trying to get some interceptor to start dipping new corals anyways.
-
Hey all Im going to order some SPS from www.reefstuff.com If anyone sees something they like let me know we can split shipping...
-
Anyone know why this coral would fade? Mine on the new sections is almost a clearish red color. Im not sure if its just the nature of this coral or if my tank is doing it. Do LPS in genral fade color in low Nutrient tanks?
-
Hey all, Wondering if anyone has any experience with this fish? They look very cool and I wanted to get a new fish. I was thinking this or maybe 2-3 flasher wrasses. If anyone has some suggestions let me know.
-
I would Defiantly go with the Euro reef. Its a real bad Idea to cut corners on the skimmer. A good skimmer will make all the difference in your success. The CS 80 is also a good size for a 50 gallon tank.
-
Anyone have pictures of the best Brown SPS they have got that turned into one of your favorites? Ill post a picture of mine when I can get a good picture of it. Mine is a 1 inch brown milli that has turned into a Turquoise base with blue tips
