inTank Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Here is a sneak peak to wet your water with. There are a few tweaks we need to make to the product but this should shut a few holes and end a few PMs on when it is coming out. Attention: Prototype pictured inTank secret design guides the basket in between bottom support brackets so it won't get hung up. One revision left on this. Now what could this be for? One more, top pieces allow the basket to hang on the cross supports. They also allow the water to flow in to the basket. Water testing begins soon. Link to comment
d'Espresso Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 AWWW MAN i can't wait to get my hands on these!! Can i be the guinea pig and test it out for u? Link to comment
StevieT Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 You can be a customer guinea pig If I need another tester I will give you a shout. Hopefully this will be out soon I really like the engineering on this basket the laser opens up so many options. Link to comment
creefer Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Wow. This looks great! When can we get our hands on this?? Link to comment
inTank Posted February 15, 2011 Author Share Posted February 15, 2011 I just gave the go ahead to production on this basket 1 hour ago. Lets say two weeks right now but that is not firm. I do not know the unit cost yet so there is no pricing but it will be under $999.99 I promise. Once I find that out you may be lucky enough to see a presale. inTank over and ouTank Link to comment
FishStrings Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Would need a demonstration first honestly. Would like to see how the water moves through it and how easy the media is to access and change. How is it powered? What does it look like in the tank and how would it be positioned? Are there even any benefits to having this in the tank? Link to comment
nor_cal_nano Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 inTank over and ouTank Your puns make me want to kick babies Link to comment
inTank Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 Your puns make me want to kick babies Step up to the game son and kick some babies. Then post pictures here. inTank you How is it powered? It is powered by lasers but you have to make a pew pew pew sound every so often to keep the water moving. Are there even any benefits to having this in the tank? not really, it just looks pretty and sales pay for our private jet and or island Link to comment
d'Espresso Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Lol stevie got jokes! Link to comment
FishStrings Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Does it have a secondary sleeve so i can pull the media out without having to stick my hand in the tank? Does it have enough holes in it to be effective with a power head? Does it sit in the tank vertically or horizontally? I see whats trying to be accomplished, but would need to compare effectiveness to canisters, powerfilters, and hob refugiums. People really value their inner tank space and this would have to be a revolutionary item to turn heads. Link to comment
FishStrings Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 So, what this is a box with trays? Since you don't have one sane answer. I assume by private jet you mean hand glider plane? I don't see how you can possibly have the money for a jet, just my assumption. Link to comment
inTank Posted February 17, 2011 Author Share Posted February 17, 2011 ok... Does it have a secondary sleeve so i can pull the media out without having to stick my hand in the tank? No, not needed or functional. Does it have enough holes in it to be effective with a power head? Yes Does it sit in the tank vertically or horizontally? Vertically I see whats trying to be accomplished, but would need to compare effectiveness to canisters, powerfilters, and hob refugiums. People really value their inner tank space and this would have to be a revolutionary item to turn heads. It is a revolutionary item and canisters are about the worst filter you can have on a reef tank. I think a trip to mediabaskets.com would help you understand what a media basket is and how it helps an AIO tank. We have been producing different models for three years now so the Solana media basket is really nothing new. So, what this is a box with trays? Since you don't have one sane answer. I assume by private jet you mean hand glider plane? I don't see how you can possibly have the money for a jet, just my assumption. Like a G6 Link to comment

inTank Posted February 18, 2011 Author Share Posted February 18, 2011 We hear the yelling so here ya go. Solana 34 Media Basket is ready for what? Pre-Sale!!! What does that mean? Well it means you are first on the increasing list for this long awaited piece of equipment. You also give inTank monies now and we run off with it ship your order as soon as they start to trickle in off production. First on the list is first to receive so don't wait too long. But we're not done: Order in the next 10 minutes and we will release the Solana 34 Foam Holder! What is a Foam Holder? Well the Solana has foam in chamber one that cuts down on waterfall noise as water enters the chamber and falls down the intake tube. Problem is it is held up by two dinky skinny horizontal pieces of ABS. Foam over time tends to fall down that tube and you are in a world of fun. The inTank Foam Holder keeps the foam in place, makes it super easy to pull up for changes or cleanings. You can even use inTank's filter floss in it's place for crystal clear water without the risk of nitrates. Or filter floss can be cut to shape to fit perfectly. But that's not all: Order in the next 8 minutes and we'll cut your monthly payments during the pre-sale. The media basket and foam holder are on sale! You earn interest back by ordering early. inTank isn't finished yet: We also put together a package deal so you can save even more. Bundle the Media Basket and Foam Holder for additional savings and fun just pay shipping and handling. Remember, all orders over $140 USD receive free shipping. Order today don't delay. Pictures are of prototypes and improvements have been made. Media Basket: Foam Holder: Package Deal: Pre-sale conditions: Estimated time of completion is 2 weeks from Feb-22-2011. Orders are shipped complete unless other arrangements have been made. Invoices are shipped in order received during the pre-sale. Images do not 100% reflect finished product improvements have been made to design and performance. Link to comment
