AquaC EV-240 or ETSS 600 XR / ETSS 800 XR

I will say if you are flowing 900 g/h through the skimmer you should have a 900 g/h pump for the return so you maximize the overflows in your tank.

Well the 3500 is 900 gph, and the 7500 is 18gph. The EV-240 needs a Mag 12 or a mag 18. So the 3500 would be underpowered, but the 7500 would be best.

I would e-mail AquaC and ask how much flow is actually going through the 240 with a mag18. It isn't 1800 gph I assure you.

 

I would like to show some picture... but how do I upload? If I click on image.. it ask me a URL !!?? My pic is on my computer not on the net.

 

The only way I put a picture is through the camera icon picture on my side bar where my username, location etc...
I need to go to the store to get a peice of T piping for my return pipe as in the drawing I have two return pipe.. I would like to connect them to get to be one final pipe going in the sump... or put another T at the end.. so two pipe being one then two exit for the water... insted all the way two pipe...ideas

 

Well I am back... from shopping

I bought the Aqua Medic Turboflotor 3000 as the Aqua C EV-240 was not enough for my tank and the EV-400 won't fit under. As for the ETSS 800 XR well they had the 600 on their tank but didn't seem very good plus I need to buy a pump for 150$ and the 800 XR for 600$ as for the Aqua Medic is only 350$ with pump.

I went with my feeling as I have the Aqua Medic 1000 (rated 125gal) on my 150gal and work very good so now I have the 3000 and reated at 375 gal on my new tank 244 gal I beleive it will do extreamly well.... I wish some one can tell me how to do the pictures here so I can show you guys

I bought Salt 5 bags each 50gal=250 gal of Marine Enviroment brand which they say is the best (I think if you have a perfect water) but for me even with three filter on my water I still have alot of phosphate and etc... I don't have RO water. But enough filter and to reduce it.

I got a Weipro Calcium reactor KA-400L that I will use for phosphate insted.

I got two salt water 4.4 gal just for bacteria, etc...
