http://www.eddiesaqua.com/red-sea-max-e-260-sump-and-pipework.html They have it but shipping isn't free. I live in DE and I've been to House of Tropicals a few times when I've been in the area. Definitely not impressed. Good luck!

Ouch! That's no good!

I had an S650 for 2.5 years and never had the problem that you are describing. Mine worked consistently and never overfilled my tank. I would recommend getting a replacement float switch from one of the Red Sea parts suppliers. I often thought about adding onto the reservoir somehow but never...

I think the new LED canopies are ugly personally, and not having a dimmable T5 ballast on a $3k+ line of tanks? C'mon man

I'm so stoked! I just got my shipping confirmation today. I live fairly close to them and FedEx shows it will be delivered tomorrow!!! Will definitely post pics. It did take the full 4 weeks that they forecasted. I'm so ready to get my ghetto rigged old 650 screen top replaced.

I picked up all the essentials (return pump, powerhead, lights, skimmer) before the tank even arrived. I'm still trying to decide what else I want or need to add.

I'd go Reefer also. I had an S650 for a couple years and now I have the 525XL. The S series had a bigger ATO reservoir which was a bonus, but it was next to impossible to clean. You could shop vac it but I really didn't like that you couldn't clean it. I also liked that the S series had an...

This is where the magic happens! I feel like I'm in a great position to jump in the fish food game. Working for a seafood distributor really allows me to make sure that only the freshest, highest quality ingredients go in, even fresh seaweed!

It's a needle-wheel DC skimmer. Simplicity DC 320 is the model. It claims to be suitable for a heavily stocked 160 gallon up to a 320 gallon lightly stocked. Last time I checked there's hardly anything about the brand online yet, though a lot of places sell them. I got mine for way cheaper than...

These are my newest QT inhabitants. They were staying together in a tank by themselves at the LFS. I'm hoping they're already a pair. Last night they were laying next to each other on the bottom of the tank. Seen no aggression so far. Here's my Copperband in the DT. Eating anything I throw...

Seems so odd that they don't send the white units with the white fixtures. May be because they won't have blue, red and grey fixtures for the other owners out there if they make the kits for those colors.

Must be CBB season. I have one in QT for 3 weeks now. Had been hesitant to post him for fear of jinxing myself. Eating like a champ. Was fighting an unknown tang for mysis at the LFS when I asked to see it fed. Good luck fellas! CBB is one of my wife's favorites but if he has a fancy for Acans...

I'm running the Pros using the 120 degree lenses. The lights do not tilt on the mounts. The arm that they are mounted to can slide front to back to achieve your desired position over your structures, but no tilting as far as I know.

These guys are pretty good as far I know. It's where I ordered my tanks from. Good luck!
