Well i'm pretty confident that Dougs post says it all. I think we're more steering towards helping a potential newby buyer purchasing something that is very out dated, and just a potential distaster waiting to happen. A lot of people would go "oh my god, they're on TV, lets buy that system!"

When really... you're paying for a name, crappy fake corals, and a system that IMO is outdated and flawed.

Boy, I look at this unit and see a number of possibilities...
You certainly can replace the fake coral with live rock for a few hun, go fowlr right away
Add a diy led light if you want corals...
As far as bioballs are concerned, cost of removing them = $0
Though look at Mike Palettas recent build (youtube led experiment) and youll see he still uses bioballs!
And you have an elegant, modern piece of furniture thats miles ahead of most tanks out there for looks!
Not sure about the electronics, whats in the unit for electrical control ato, temp, etc?

The dimensions of the tank are a nightmare. Hardly suitable for fish or corals
