I just got my new reactor in thursday 8) . It is a Dual 6.5 inch reverse flow reactor made by REEF OCTOPUS!

Here are some pics. LMK what you think. I do not have it hooked up yet due to the media being in transit.

Not to bad... After shipping it came alittle over 350$.. Also I couldn't find it cause everyone was backordered, then I spoke to Polkster13 @ www.coralreefbazaar.com and he said he could get it in like 2 days.... And he did, not to mention that he pretty mutch delivered this thing to my house(by the way thanks Fredrick! ;) ).... Fredrick is the man when it comes to customer service. He will bend over backwards to help you and even has competitive prices too.

Also that is a good ole 24oz shiner next to it

You still need to get a regulator and CO2 bottle for it, right?

Nope got a 20# co2 bottle with a TUNZE regulator.....Also got 2 TUNZE ph contollers so I can monitor the effluent, while monitoring the ph of the tank itself.

I actualy have a 5# co2 bottle with a TUNZE regulator for back up.. Just in case the good ole 20#er goes dry.

What I meant was the price you quoted didn't include the regulator and bottle.
