Withers Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 Nice! What model of Euro-Reef did you get? I just got a CS6-1 for Christmas, and boooy is it awesome, I just wish the collection cup could be removed a little easier, lol. Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 30, 2004 Author Share Posted December 30, 2004 You're crazy, Vic. haha. CS6-1 is rated for 100g and your pump is CRAZY intense. haha. I stuck w/ what was recommended on the descriptions of the models since folks said they were very accurate and even modest in their estimates. It's the ES5-3. Only like $8 more than the Aqua C Urchin Pro that I was initially gonna get. Link to comment
larnie Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 lol Man... It wasn't the box that caught my attention Tigah, it was the stool. My 9 year old daughter has one just like it! I just hope that yours doesn't have the same message on the seat cover that her's does... Link to comment

Tigahboy Posted December 30, 2004 Author Share Posted December 30, 2004 Hahaha...hey now! That stool belongs to my girlfriend!...i swear! and it's actually just slightly different...i'm sure it's made by the same company tho. strawberry shortcake. so no princesses here. =P haha. and wait a sec here. this is the FIRST time you ever posted in my thread and it's to point out a pink stool?! LOL. too funny. Link to comment
larnie Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 hahahaha... That's killin' me! Some things just deserve being pointed out more than others. But... Awesome tank dude! Link to comment
EnFuego Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 new protein skimmer huh? Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 30, 2004 Author Share Posted December 30, 2004 Yeah...EuroReef ES5-3 - one of the best on the market (but I still like Aqua C's too!) Damn this sucker is HUGE! I don't know how that's gonna fit in my sump. haha. Link to comment
EnFuego Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 did you get that because you were upgrading or because you thought that the AquaC wasnt doing a good enough job on your tank? Link to comment
Sushi Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 you get what you pay for w/those Euro-Reefs... i'm sure you won't be disappointed with that purchase. i've heard nothing but kick-ass comments about Euro-Reef's line of skimmers. btw, is this going in ur 30g show or your new setup? is that even done yet?

Tigahboy Posted December 30, 2004 Author Share Posted December 30, 2004 Originally posted by EnFuego did you get that because you were upgrading or because you thought that the AquaC wasnt doing a good enough job on your tank? Purely for the upgrade. My new tank will be 67g plus a 20g sump...that's gonna end up being like 80g of system water I have to skim...so the aqua c wouldn't be able to keep up. I think the Aqua C Remora PRO could...but the EuroReef is just one of the best out there, so decided to get one. But I was very happy w/ my Aqua C for my 30g. It worked great! Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 30, 2004 Author Share Posted December 30, 2004 new set-up is gonna take a couple days longer now...so probably around January 19th...simply b/c I asked him to switch the black acrylic to the darker blue. hehe. Link to comment
Cesar Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 Man that box it came in looks huge dude. How many inches is that skimmer you got Tigah? Hahaha, by the way my son sat on those seats that Tigah has. Link to comment

I just hope it's not all a waste of money. Link to comment

Smokin-Reefer Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 I think it's 25.2 with the cup on, atleast thats what someone else told me. What else did you buy tigah? on another note- ER should give me some money for all the "pushing" I've been doing.... LOL Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 30, 2004 Author Share Posted December 30, 2004 Just a bunch of little things like chemipure, poly filter, cyclo-peeze... I also ordered a Pan World to serve as a return pump. But it's on backorder so gotta wait. Link to comment
Smokin-Reefer Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 yes, but what is above the chemi pure in the picture...that, i've never seen before... and while I'm STILL playing this shiz out, My skimmer is in KC, which is 3 hours from me....maybe by the time i get up, it'll be here!

Tigahboy Posted December 30, 2004 Author Share Posted December 30, 2004 haha. you've never seen a thermometer before? just replacing the one I lost.

Tigahboy Posted December 30, 2004 Author Share Posted December 30, 2004 I don't think skimmers are necessary...but they definitely help w/ filtration A LOT. Link to comment
