Default Red Sea Max nano

Does anyone have a Red Sea Max? Or has anyone seen one modified to take a 50w or 75w MH?

I'm very interested in these nanos as well. I'm seriously considering making the Red Sea Max my next tank endeavour, but the lighting seems a bit weak to me.

Someone out there must know!

I found out on another forum that it has been done, but the tank doesn't look as sleek afterwards.

I ended up going with a DIY project and am much happier.

Red Coral in Calgary has one of the Red Seas Max's set up. It is a slick looking tank! I wish that it had a built in MH as well. I'm tempted to get one for the living room, I've been thinking a bout a small tank for the main floor but wanted something that is nice and neat and not a mess of wires.

Do the new ones now come with MH lighting, or am I just special and can only find the ugly modded ones?

Default nope

The red sea max only comes with the "t5 power compacts" which are 55 watt power compacts.

The new JBJ 28 gallon nano comes with the 150 watt halide unit, wavemaker, and skimmer.

Nate

Both are available in all edmonton and Calgary stores

I have been snooping around for reviews and information on the Red Sea Max and came across this thread on a UK reef forum...

http://www.reefsuk.org/forum/viewtop...er=asc&start=0

so far it's up to 43 pages long, and I've read about the first 14 pages so far. Seems to me that these folks have a pretty good handle on it.
