I have a 240/3 that I have taken off my 125 gallon reef. I plan on upgrading to a ASM. I like the Tunze, basically plug and play, once adjusted, quiet, easy on electricity and does not require fiddling, but I don't think it can cut it on my 125 with a heavy bioload.

I wouldn't worry about using one on a 65 gallon,

How much is the guy on RC asking for his 240/3.
