Lololol are you okay with coraline algae attached to the back? I love the manta ray 18 but coraline algae is what makes it not as pleasing as it should be. Link to comment
TristanC Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 Honestly man it pretty my my dream tank, and I've never been bothered by coraline algae covering the back. 1 Link to comment

Ok, you willlll love the picO manta ray 18!! Make sure you get starphire glass though. I have regular glass and kinda regret not opting for starphire. Link to comment
TristanC Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 Oh I will for sure be getting starphire lol, I'm just not sure when pico will be opening up. You don't remember how much they are do you? Link to comment

You don't remember how much they are do you? I do, but thing is, I think PicO might have risen the prices. I got mine for $265, this includes regular glass, glass cover, pump, tank. $65 for shipping. And the fuge light along with the custom magnet cleaner are separate from these charges. I didn't buy starphire because it cost more, I think $80 more or could be more or less...don't quite remember on that. Link to comment
Thelizardkin Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I know you want the manta ray but a 25 gallon starfire mr aqua cube is only like $160 Link to comment
Deleted User 4 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I know you want the manta ray but a 25 gallon starfire mr aqua cube is only like $160 Lol. I can assure you that the manta ray by picO or even the starphire rimless naked series by picO (Like Mr. Aqua) are built much nicer, quality and craftsmanship wise than Mr. Aqua. This includes perfect alignment on the silicone, leak test, glass quality etc. They say you pay the price for what you get. Link to comment
TristanC Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 I have looked at the low iron mr aqua 18" cube, only thing is I really like the shallow dimensions of the manta. Also Chris makes works of art when it come to craftsmanship, I have seen some in person and everything is as perfect as it gets. 1 Link to comment

Mine is only 1/2 yr ago. Link to comment

TristanC Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 The Elos systems are nice, very nice in fact. But I'm not entirely sure they are worth the price tag. 1 Link to comment
Deleted User 4 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I think ADA's are worth it though...sooo what do you think? Link to comment
TristanC Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 Ada's are amazing, at one point I almost ordered one but decided against it in favor of having a pico from Chris. 1 Link to comment

Which ada were you going to get? Hey, I just came back from Discount Trop. I bought 3 green bta's for $60. One with purple tips and white speckles, two with orange tips and white speckles. They just planted their foot into the manta ray 18!! Link to comment
TristanC Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 Nice!!! Did you post pics in your thread? Link to comment
