moscowites Posted September 18, 2012 Author Share Posted September 18, 2012 Thanks for the review bro. Do you think it'll be sufficient for a 150g tank? (not taking into account of sump volume) Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member LittleBurger Posted October 5, 2012 SRC Member Share Posted October 5, 2012 Thanks for the review bro. Do you think it'll be sufficient for a 150g tank? (not taking into account of sump volume) Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk I remember the 2000 series I was looking at is already over rated for my 3x3x2 water vol. I remember my calculated tank plus sump is close to 600litres which is around 150gal I suppose. but the xpsss series u need indent from span aquarium. Ya, also remember check yr cup clearance when u wan to take out. also I think the cup got no drain tube. u need check to confirm Quote Tank size:36"x36"x24" Return pump" 2x Reef Octo 5000 Skimmer:BK Double Cone 200 on Reef Octopus DC 5500s.
