If you are looking for around 1000-1200GPH back into the tank, then I would use a Mag 18. After head pressure losses, friction losses and SCWD losses, it should be around 1200GPH.

A closed loop will definately help you rid your tank of some powerheads. A SCWD with a nice pump like a Blueline NS1100 or a CSL T4 would be pretty sweet.

The bulb should turn on right away. It starts off dim then gets brighter as the bulb warms up. The ballast also does buzz a little if it is a HQI ballast. Since your bulb does not fire up right...

Hi Andy,

I appoliogize for the confusion on my part. I had promised that bulb to a friend of mine long before I had put it up for sale as collateral for a future trade. In my absent mindedness,...

Maybe try asking IceCap on the RC forum. They usually respond within a day. If you do need to get it serviced, you'll have to send it to IceCap.

Not to jack your thread, but do you know what componets need to be replaced? If you did, you could probably repair it rather than replace it again.

What type of system are you going to be setting up? A mainly SPS system? Barebottoms are great for some types of system, but not so great for others.

Can you post some more specs on this pump? I can't seem to find very much info on the RLZT series of pump. What is the in/out diameter, power consumption, etc. Is it a WMD or MD model?

Thanks.

Hey Alvin,

I've transported and have had transported big stags, orange caps, fish, etc. all without incident. Just watch what you are doing and you should be ok.
