Advance Aqua Tanks Filtration. Wow?

Hey so I have a 240 fish only salt setup. Has anyone heard on this filtration package. It is an all in one setup. Sump, skimmer and pump. Trying to see if this is a good package?

Please help me. Here is the link to the page.

nothing of any real value in most packaged deals. you cant see what kind/type of skimer thats included in the packege. you might find that you're better off just DIY'ing something.
... better pricing, better components.
grab a used 40/55 gallon tank, go to home depot and get some acrylic baffles cut.

buy a nice eheim pump, 1262, or something bigger if your looking for serious turn over....ima low flow kinda guy.
spend the money on the skimmer...a good rule of thumb is 1.5 times what the manufacturer reccommends.


good luck!

Go to Reef Dynamics and get one of their sumps on clearance and a RS 180 skimmer if it is a good deal. For a 240 gallon tank you will need a good skimmer and great pump
