I'm not ready to create a build log just yet, but maybe this can be a little hint of what is to come. Some of you may have seen that I had a tank for sale on here recently which apparently I can't give away (LOL)... Anyway I'm a little premature but working to create an in-wall and equipment room. I was able to sell it to the wife unit by also building her a walk in pantry, which I think is more than fair of meI've decided to keep the aquarium and build around it
.
To get on with my questions and stop rambling I guess I need to spit this out. I need "want" to upgrade my Skimmer, I currently have a large Euro Reef. Cant remember the model, but it's big. Being a Texas Reefer (Dallas) I have a level of pride supporting what I can with Texas business and have been eye balling the new Precision Marine Ballistic Mach 2. However the new MRC Reeflo Orca Series has also caught my eye and at a serious crossroad on making a decision.
I think I can get more for my money with the PM Mach 2, but I can't find anyone that has ever purchased one and curious if anyone here has any experience with these large skimmers. I would appreciate any comments positive or negative with the two skimmers I have mentioned. Hopefully it will assist in my decision. Potentially someone may ask what the water volume is... I don't have the exact volume yet because my new sump is in works. But the volume will be north of 500 gallons.
Thanks all...
