new bubble king!

I went to the MAX expo yesterday and picked up a Bubble King mini 180 for my 150G tank. I got a really good deal on it, and it's a new 2nd generation with the upgraded Red Dragon pump with O3 intake. I was considering a Mini 200, but they only had the Supermarin 200, which is way too big to fit in my sump. Anyhow, I'll be putting it into my system soon, hopefully I can get my tank running and stocked really soon! My EV-180 will then go into my 65G, which will become a mini-reef for my gf. :trampolin

 

very cool!!

 

Pics or it didn't happen

How much, if you don't mind me asking?

 

I'll get pics tonight as soon as I get home. I fired a couple pics when I get there and the rest became "OH look at those!!! AHHH LOOK AT THOSE!!!" when my GF and I saw the pretty frags and forgot to shoot more pics, sorry. I bought the BK from Premium Aquatics for $865 out the door. Not bad considering the cheapest I can find it is $999, and that means either shipping costs or sales tax. My gf thinks I'm nuts, but said "if it means a cleaner tank and getting your lionfish, go for it." The EV-180 will go into the 65G, so she will have her reef tank soon too. So it was a win-win situation.

 

Congrats...

 

So far I have really liked my 160. Very simple and consistent. Cleaning is almost a joy.

 

.... No comment

Nice unit. Let's see some skimmate pics.

 

Here ya go.



The cup and lid lift off, the inner neck comes out. Open, easy.

 

That's some nasty stuff! I wasn't able to get any pics, I got home too late and was too lazy last night. I'll get it tonight though, I have to work on my computer when I get home anyway.

 

Here is a pic of my Bubble King. More pics after I get it in place.
