    Lethals RSM 250

    Yes I agree, sometimes what i find is people sell marine but you just wouldn't risk buying it from them. So far Reflections is the best option i reckon but yeh its far away for me too. haha I haven't tried any online suppliers, with the cost of the livestock + the shipping im not to game either...

    Which vortech pump for my RSM250

    Haha awesome! ok I will get a MP10 today, hopefully it will arrive in the mail soon. apparently they 'can' vibrate quite loudly...but from what ive seen its just a matter of wiggling the magnet into alignment.

    Which vortech pump for my RSM250

    awesome, i think i will go ahead and buy the mp10. they look such amazing pumps and add so much more flow to the tank. hopefully replacing the t5's + MP10 + installation of phosphate reactor + water changes will eradicate all my nuisance algae :( but im looking forward to the mp10 :)
