:lol: ...watch me build this bad boy :sgrin: (with herman'S heLp)

You gonna get the matching BK? If you don't you can get a coralife SS. lol.

 

[inkblue]

...depends on herman'S advice :smokin:

I'd think it'll depend more on your wallet.

Bubble King $1799 - $6,559

vs.

Coralife Super Skimmer $89 - $169

stand looks pretty easy for anyone who can weld, then just gotta find some1 to powdercoat it or whatever. pretty sweet looking setup tho i would do something to hide some of the stuff underneath (aside from the tricked-out skimmer)

 

[inkblue]

as advised, I might go with these lights:

48inch GIESEMANN 260 Moonlight T5 2 x 150W + 2 x 39W

:smokin:

 

[IconicAquariums]

Wow. That light costs as much as my whole dream setup

 

[spykes]

joe what's your dream system? btw how are those coralife skimmer? i heard the NW on them are a bit weak.

 

[suntzu]

Wow, Don. If you are serious, I can't believe you are even thinking about building this system. That's mad nice, but crazy money.

Replacement skimmer: Deltec Turbo 1060S

:cool3:

 

[IconicAquariums]

60-90 cube w/ icecap spot pendants, t5s, wave2k, return with pens, mtc minical, etc. Not sure on skimmer. Already halfway there with my setup now

The CSS is ok. Certainly doesn't compare to the deltec i had, but is better than a remora/bak pak. I'm considering trying one of the tunze skimmers.

Kai, it won't be identicaL, and it'LL probably be rectanguLar rather than square, but i kinda wannA achieve the same resuLts and definiteLy the LOOK :shocked1:

 

[IconicAquariums]

Inkblue, good thing you didn't see a picture of the Deltec/Geissman setup at MACNA. It was easily $75k empty.

im thinking about selling my remora and getting one of those coralife SS ones the prices on those are cheaper them the ASM skimmers.
