I havent even seen it until now. That looks really cool.

Must be brand new, I like the looks, would love to know prices on those!!

vdituri · 11-06-2007, 04:34 PM

Looks pretty slick.

lcstorc · 11-06-2007, 04:43 PM

Very interresting.
Looks like an upgraded Aquapod that already has several of the mods most people make.

you sure could make a killing makin a TRUE all in one system that was like, you know, pratical on the wallet

I had seen pictures of it a few months ago from the Interzoo show...was not impressed

mps9506 · 11-06-2007, 07:13 PM

Now if they would just make one without that skimpy filtration and turned that box into an overflow and let you put a sump under it...

I'm really not digging the lights either. I would probably stick with the more traditional Current HQI hood.

I think i want one,how do i get ahold of current?

BigAl07 · 11-06-2007, 07:16 PM

I really LIKE the look of that unit. If it's performance even comes close it's appearance it has some potential. That's the kind of set-up I think would go well in a professional type setting (Dentist's office, Legal Office, MY Office)

Current doesn't sell direct to the public, but if you get on their website you can look for a local dealer. As far as I know they haven't been shipped to any dealers yet.
