Red Sea may have competition

[whippetguy]

Just read this article about the IM new AIO large shallow tanks. It will be interesting to see what lights these will come with. Maybe this competition will get Red Sea to offer a LED option for the S series tanks. I would love to see it happen.

Hummm....I think RSM is a better looking tank :makefun:
I just like seeing more tank than cabinet just me...they may look better in person tho

 

[SenseiSays]

I hope the price is reasonable! I hate that RSM goes from 34 gal to 65 gal and then up into the 100's! I wish RSM had an 80 gallon. I really like that size! If the price is right I might have to save up to get the 80 gallon and then sell my RSM 250! I can't wait to get more details!

Just for what it's worth, I'm adding a sump/refugium to my RSM 250 and it's going to mean an increase of water volume of about 20 gallons. Won't be 20 gallons of display tank tho....just lots more water circulation and a "pod room" to grow macro algae. It's my solution to not being a DIY person, the sump/refugium is being built by LifeReef and he makes the one I'm ordering for specific use with the RSM 250.
Still not going to give me more DT but I have hopes that it's going to be GOOD. I don't want more DT to maintain anyway.

Off topic question: can you have a clam with an eel? This is not for my current build btw. Pondering another tank.

I have looked into those,but for what they are I think that they are way too pricey!

Sort of "Off Topic" but then again when has that ever stopped me from ruining a good flowing thread? LOL

Bryan the most impressive clam tank I've seen in person was a Zero-Edge tank at one of the LFS in Charlotte NC. Long, shallow and phenomenal viewing capabilities. I understand Zero-Edge tanks have their own set of "issues" but from a pure top-down viewing standpoint they are 2nd to none.
