To Close Loop or to not close loop????

[pilot_bell777]

I'm getting close to setting up my tank (RR Acrylic Corner Tank) and was wondering if I should drill it on each side and run a SQWD for a closed loop or not.....

Thoughts????

[::pete::]

Yes to the closed loop, but something better than a SCWD. I have used SCWD's and Im not saying they are bad, but after using an www.oceansmotions.com unit there is no comparison and no need to upgrade or change.

[GaryP]

Yes, especially if you are looking at setting it up as a SPS tank.

what do those run $$ wise??? Looking at the 2 and the 4? If you know....

[::pete::]

The prices are on the site. Ill show you tomorrow.

I recommend a close loop as well. I 2nd the oceansmotions, they work great!

[pilot_bell777]

Well with the advice and knowledge provided by ~Pete~ I am now officially drilled and bulkheaded for a close loop with one out bulkhead (hole) and two in bulkheads with flex line (holes) and didn't crack the acrylic!

Thanks PETE your knowledge and expertise has been invaluable today and will continue to be in the future!!!!!!!!!!!
