Hi guys, I see that Euro-reef has been out of business since 2009!
Currently I have an AquaC EV-120 running on my 58g, and I'm ramping up my equipment for my 180g.
A friend has a Euroreef skimmer, with the Sedra 5000 pump that he runs on hiss 170g, which he's breaking down.
He says it's "rated" for 200 g. If I bought it from him for the extra capacity (I can still run my EV-120 along side it I'm sure) what problems might there be if the Sedra 5000's needle impeller broke? I hear normal Sedra 5000 impellers work OK with the ER. I'm not sure what model of skimmer it is.
I haven't really been keeping up with equipment and I know there are slews of great new products out there. It used to be that ER and AquaC were the benchmarks, but that was in ancient times.
I'm also considering maybe picking up his Korallin CA reactor. I have a K2R reactor that I didn't really use much (it started leaking and I just haven't fixed it yet). I'd consder it since it's probably easier to use/tune than my K2r (which I could use as an second stage I suppose)
His stuff is about as out of date as my stuff, but different brands. But on the other hand .. they are all basically acrylic tubes!
Thoughts? Thanks!
