klabuckeye Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 My 24G NC was getting crowded so I upgraded to a Cadlights Versa 68G. I read mixed reviews, but so far zero problems with any of the products and am happy with the purchase. I did upgrade the stock plumbing a bit. Ottoman on the left conceals a 5G ATO. Here is some info, pics and a vid...

scubafrogman Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Looks Good! Are you still happy with the CadLights Versa aquarium? Any issues? Thanks. Link to comment
klabuckeye Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 Thank you! No issues with the tank or stand whatsoever. Definitely good value in that purchase and would buy again. I recently upgraded the other Cad equipment I initially purchased (skimmer, reactor). Should have just spent a little more on those items in the first place. Link to comment
scubafrogman Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I have been looking at the Versa and Artisan for a while and really like them (tank & stand). I just see so many negative reviews that it is nice to see a positive experience. Yes, if money allows, I would like to use a different sump (maybe Trigger) and different accessories. Link to comment
klabuckeye Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 Yeah I read all the same stuff, but most complaints were about customer service and not the product itself. The price was right for the basics so I gave it a shot and am glad I did. For a quality tank/stand I think it's hard to beat. With a few easy upgrades you'll have a great system and it will still cost way less than some of the bigger brand names. Link to comment
