    FS - Used RSM 250 Boston area

    Sorry it took so long for me to respond. The tank was first set up in March 2009. The only mod that I did was to the left top inside so I could mount my overflow. With the stock hood on, you would never notice it! Some people don't even notice it with the hood off until I point it out...

    Thank you Steve! When I had my stock hood on the 250, my clams died! I bought a couple more after I changed the lighting and I've never seen clams grow as fast as mine! One is now the size of my fist! I wonder why that is? I know that clams really need MH lighting in order to thrive.... Jon

    Do you really need a chiller - 250

    Chiller is a must! With all the pumps in the rear and lights causes a lot of heat in a closed system.

    UV Sterilizers - does anyone use one? Pros and cons?

    I use one but only have it on at night when the day lights are off. A UV won't treat ich. You need to find out what the cause of the problem is.

    RSM 250 too noisy to keep, how do I reduce noise?

    How oftern do you clean your pumps? Some stuff may get into the impeller area which would cause noise! I've never had any noise issue with my 250 so sorry I couldn't be more help.

    Cabinet ventilation kit

    Hello, I would get the kit if you plan to put the chiller in the cabinet! I have one installed and it takes out a lot of heat from under the tank! If I didn't have one, the heat from the chiller would just rise and continue to warm the bottom of the tank. Even with the kit, the cabinet gets...

    what a mistake?$

    How cold is your water when you're mixing? I always throw a heater in when I mix. Disolves much faster when the water is warm!

    Tank Chiller help

    I would go with a 1/4 hp chiller! When you use a smaller chiller, it will be working twice as hard to cool the amount of water that is in your tank. This means more noise and more power being used. Your chiller also won't last as long because it's working harder than it should! Maybe use a...
