So I have been talking with Chris at Reeflo Pumps on and off the last few months and he is sitting on a number of Baldor motor pumps that he's offering a smoking deal on (because the new aluminium motors they come with now match the size of the AOSmith motors, so they are a better fit for people who are replacing AOSmith motor Darts in stands and other tight spaces, etc. With Baldor having an amazing reputation for longevity, I thought, what the heck, I'll go for it, it's a new pump for 1/2 retail.)

So with that preamble aside ...

Oh my dear GAWD those pumps are insanely enormous!! I had no idea looking at pictures of Darts with Baldors how ridiculously enormous they are!!! Here I am all excited to look at "my new reef toy that came in the mail today .. whee!! *rip rip rip open open open* .... Ohhhhhh my."

I'll have to post some side by side photos of the two versions of pumps .. it is hard to imagine they are the same model they are so different in size.

Seems like it was a day for power outages I hope Mrfish55 and lampshade's tanks are ok

Glad to hear you made out ok with your tank, I don't get home till late Friday, last I heard we are having high winds back home, sure hope my tank does not suffers too bad, two consecutive bad days in a row is enough for me.

If you think somethings wrong you think it's wrong, reasons are debatable. To be able to accept an opinion plus respond without spazzing with six guns a blazing shows class... There is more six guns lately then class.

Hope I'm not the pot needing a bullet proof screen
