I am interested in this unit. Any specific brand? pm me your location. Thanks

I am on the search for a new skimmer. I located a used Geo NW8X28 Needle wheel skimmer for sale. Im just wondering if anyone uses Geo and a review of it. I cant seem to find much about them online. Also how much a unit like that goes for or is worth with a sedra 9000 pump.

Hey Marcellina, I sent you a PM.

Bump.... Thanks Mark, The shrimp and starfish are loving their new home.

Hey Rick, That would be great. I would appreciate another chance to pick your brain a little bit more too.

I want to hook up 2 tlf phosban reactors (1 phosphate, 1 carbon) and my UV light (Emperor Aquatics 18 watt) to 1 powerhead. I figured good place to put the uv b/c the flow will be way slower then my return. I keep hearing this idea of "daisy-chaining" the reactors. What exactly does that mean...

Thank you all for your responses. Im glad I asked b/c a employee at local lfs said I def need a cover and if my tank has no center brace to lower the water level and pry off my current top rim and they will get me a new one with the center brace. I was like yea... I think I will go another...

So what should I worry about getting into the tank. Like for instance windex for the entertainment center or wood cleaner on coffee/end tables which arent far away. Or air freshener b.c of the dogs? What about in winter months when you want to keep the heat in? I would like to get some kind...

ill take it if he doesnt come thru

woah that came out really big... sorry. and no the water isnt dirty thats the rock underneath the water and the crappyness of my cellphone camera. So the tank is a basic rectangular tank just the new ones have a center brace. So like all-glass aquarium or versa tops are 2 pieces and they sit on...

Sorry I gotta set up a picture acct, like photobucket or soemthing or Is there anyway to upload them from computer

I have a older 75 gal without the center brace. Its a basic 48x18, but any glass top I can find comes in 2 pieces and states center brace needed. Anyone know of product I am missing?

How big will he get. I see you have a 120 and I only have a 75 which seems like it may be too small ?
