can't wait to get my SM250. I know it's over size, but I am may have future plan to plumb another tank into the same system.

Jeremy B. · 12/22/2013, 04:28 PM

You will definitely be oversized, and it will probably be prone to overflowing and skimming wet. Just stay patient with the skimmer until you put it on a larger system.

The sooner you get those put on, the more the tanks mature, and the heavier the bioload becomes you will see a better performing skimmer in your specific situation.

Sounds like I just had a permission to over stock my tank.

What is the difference between Bubble King Mini 200 Gen 2 and Gen 3? How can you tell one from the another?

bayoupr · 01/04/2014, 08:56 AM

The Gen 3 has the anti-lime-bypass tube ( red tube which goes from the white volute to the back of the pump). Supposed to extend your maint. intervals on the pump.

Now those are nice! I inquired about one directly from Germany over the summer but the shipping cost was too prohibitive. Keep the Royal-Exclusiv goods flowing to the US

Rotknee · 01/11/2014, 12:26 PM

Now that is sexy! Love the grey (and white too) LOL.

Klaus Jansen · 01/11/2014, 02:35 PM

If you want one, please ask Premium Aquatics. We send every month Pallets to USA and it is possible, for shipping the sumps to US...

regards.. Klaus

apexifd · 01/11/2014, 04:56 PM

got my SM250 with RD3!!! It's good to be in this club.

I love the double bagging.

only one minor issue. Looks like ozone port broke during shipping.

also, quick question.

there is a grey sleeve for the pump output. it's rather loose when you slide it into the output end. Pump also comes with 3 spare oring, I am assuming it's for the venturi?

kipper31 · 01/12/2014, 02:50 AM

Friend of mine has a SM250 as well, but his is RD1 pump.

What setting should I set my DC pump at? I am assuming when you press the button its changes the % of duty cycle, and after will goes back to display the wattage use.

is that correct??
