Hi all,
I've had my RSM250 up and running now since January and am overall very happy with it. I've upgraded to the NanoReef skimmer to reduce heat/noise and to improve skimming. Also added 2 MP40wes. Critters are all doing great and can't wait to continue to watch the tank evolve.
However, the fans on the exhaust side (right side of tank) are making a ton of noise upon start-up - I can tap the hood to get them back to normal operating decibels, but I'm fearing that the fans are going bad. Question is have people generally replaced them with the stock units from RedSea (potentially under warranty) or have you upgraded to a different fan altogether? As it's a pain to take off the entire hood and do the work, I'd like to replace all 4 fans (intake & exhaust) at once, and preferably for a long time.
I'm interested to hear everyone's opinions....
Thanks!
