Red Sea Max - Prices?

[tmbar19]

I got my Red Sea Max for $850 from Red Coral Aquariums in Calgary. Golds quoted me $800. A word of advice, they have had some problems with the:
- hood fans
- skimmer/bubbles
- pumps - the bottoms fall off and produce tons of bubbles in the tank!

I fought for three months with the tank before I got it working properly. They sent me a new fan to put in (major headache!!), new pump nozzels, and now I'm waiting for new bottoms for the pumps. I have found that adding an air pump to the skimmer aids in it's cleaning capacity. Good luck!

I have been following a thread from the UK and was up to speed on the micro bubbles and fan issue. It sounded like the most recent shipments (in the UK anyway) had been fitted with updated skimmer and quieter fan. How recently did you pruchase your unit?

I had not heard about the pump issue.
