Nice! Is that running with the RD3 or the standard Red Dragon? If RD3, what setting/wattage?

Hey,
Looking to get a bubble king for a 300g I'll be setting up. It will be sps dominant, with a heavy fish load. There's a BK200 available locally, but I think it's a mini, will this be good for my tank needs. It has the red dragon pump. Thanks for your input! |

Thanks for the reply mate after reading abit more I noticed that you only calculate DT volume only so if that is true then the DT is 180g sorry should have read up abit more on that . Would the Double Cone 200 still be ok with med fish stocking? Cheers Rob |

The double cone is a great skimmer!!! I run it on my 240 gallon tank with 30 fish in it and I'm adding 20 more fish probably. I'll then up my feedings to 4-6 times a day plus a whole sheet of nori. I too looked at the SM 200 and was told it was too big for my future plans. You won't regret the dc200!

After 20+ years in reefing, owning just about every skimmer out there (ATB, H&S, Euroreef, Vertex etc.) I finally ordered a BK Mini 180!! I just hope my tank comes soon!!

I have a SM200 RD3 running in my 93gal SPS tank with 15 fish and two large anemones. I was told it would not work well, but in fact, it is. Delivered with an iPhone via Tapatalk |

Hey Scott, It is the standard pump. Sorry I did not answer sooner. Best skimmer I have ever used . I have a lot of fish and a large eel.

I've trying to understand why lignite carbon is the most effective carbon for removing residual ozone. BRS says that their lignite carbon is soft and dusty, which I want to avoid. What's the science that makes lignite the most effective and are we splitting hairs here or is there a mountain of difference? I'm considering the BRS ROX for use in the air reactor that burns off residual ozone before releasing it back. Also, does carbon ever have to be replaced when used in an ozone reactor? I would think not but if anyone would know, that would be you. Thanks! Chris |
