Euro-Reef Question!

Reefer08 · 05/24/2008, 06:14 PM

Currently I have an AquaC remora on my 40 gallon. Im thinking about upgrading to a Euro-Reef RS80. My question is how loud is the euro-reef? Is it more or less noisey than the aquaC? Would the Rs80 be overskimming for my tank? Im trying to run an all sps tank so I wanna go low nutrient. Thanks

I used to have a Remora on my 29 gallon. Now I have a Euro-reef 135 on mu 90 gallon. The Euro-reef is much quieter!

I have an RS 80 on my 90 an love it, it pulls all kinds of smelly stuff out of the tank water, and its very quiet.

but would an rs80 be bad on a 40 gallon? Ive got a total of 48 gallons of volume.

Why would you think it would be bad on a 40 gallon?

I used one on my 40 breeder, its the perfect skimmer for your tank. And much quieter then the remora.

I have the remora pro on my tank, and a good friend of mine has the RS80 when your around my tank IT IS A BIT LOUD TO BE HONEST but around his it's very quiet.
