Hi everyone, thanks for the reply's and opinions

a trip to Edmonton on saturday and a visit to big Al's helped us empty some of the wallet and we brought home a new JNS skimmer, I have to say I liked the look of the skimmer in action, liked the adjustability of it, liked the footprint with the internal pump and the price was within budget....or maybe I am a sucker for a good sales pitch, either way we have our skimmer, picked up a powerhead, refractometer, and a couple buckets of salt.

Hooked up with a fellow member on here in Lloydminster and picked up his used gen2 radion xr30 at a pretty good deal, we will need a second for our 120gal, but lots of time for that later. After a discussion with him on powerheads I have looked into the Jebao rw series, and from what I see, I am impressed, think I may return my hydor and purchase one or two of these instead, anyone have any experience with them? I am thinking one rw-8 for the time being, should get enough flow in a 48"x24"x24" to get my rock started?

so we are one step closer to starting this little adventure, been fun and informative so far, next step, a proper pump.......gonna have a 5' lift from my sump to top of tank so gonna need something with some power I am thinking.

til next time
Randy
