Jim's 75g Build Thread

Hey Jim. I am not running the NA6, but have been running the BM100 for about 4 months now. It's basically the old version of the the new models and it is one heck of a skimmer. I currently have it on my 55g, but I am working on a 75g and should have it up by this afternoon (hopefully). I have had no complaints and will continue to buy Bubble Magus products. I have a review of my skimmer in the protein skimmer forum.

Hey, 4phish.
Yea I've read your review, it's great. Does yours have the atman 2500?

 

I know, I know...this build thread sucks:-/. I came into it excited and ready to get this thing going but I've been on hold. Been trying to buy a foreclosed house which is proving much more difficult than I thought. Been going on and on for months now. Thought it was gonna go alot quicker so I didn't wanna set the tank up just to tear it down to move into the new house.
But for some good news the broker told us today to expect some paperwork sent my way. And that we might be closing on the house by the end of the month. And then on with the build!

Wish me luck!;D

 

Well you off to a start a slow one but it is going.... if you need a good idea for and overflow set up for the 75 gallon then how does a overflow that can handle up to 5000 gph and is failsafe sound? Let me know if you want more info I can pm a sheet of info on it.

 

Yes, very slow indeed. Still having trouble closing on this house. Anyways... Yea I'm very interested in hearing about this overflow you're talking about. Still haven't decided on one yet.

 

Oh I almost forgot the best part it is completely silent!!!!!

To get you started you can look at my build thread until I get that email over to you.


Link is the blue underlined link in my signature.

 

Thanks for the info Scott. K+

I've read a little bit about the bean animal before, but it always seemed pretty complicating. I'll definitly read through that link a few more times. You're still happy you went with it?

 

Have you read the email I sent you? I think it makes it a little easier to understand instead of reading 120 pages of info on RC! I have not had water going through it yet but the tank it completely drilled and ready to go so no going back now.

 

Hey Jim, just subscribed. Looking forward to more updates on your build. Hope all went or goes well with the house too!

Hey Brian,
Be prepared for a long and slow thread lol.

I'm close to giving up on this house. Too much of a roller coaster for me. It's been months and I feel like we're not even close to closing. But I am looking for another rental so I'll be setting the 75 up as soon as I find something.
