BRS and aquamaxx?

[Marine430]

BRS has all aquamaxx items on clearance along with items being discontinued. Is aquamaxx going under? or is brs just done with aquamaxx?

I dunno, their reactors are a leaky mess.

Good to know. I have always wanted to try one and at 50% off I almost pulled the trigger lol

So you’re saying I probably shouldn’t have bought a sigma reactor for $60, lol. I figured the sicce pump alone costs $45 so at worst the reactor is garbage and I’m out $15.

All at 50% blowout.

Not a fan of BRS but these are some good deals.

I just bought their basic carbon reactor. I was going to mount it and run it outside the tank for space saving reasons. But no matter O-ring or not, if I flip the lid or not, no matter what, it leaks where the inlet and outlet connects to the lid. I've tried tightening, loosening, different O-rings. It's so stupidly oversized too. Bad choice on my part.

Same!!!

 

[Devisissy]

Same!!!

So because I'm stupid, I ordered their taller skinny version of my overpriced garbage. Hopefully it won't leak as bad and fit better in my sump. For $30 can't beat that.

At these prices I couldn't help myself. . . got a few magnetic frag racks headed my way!

I'm in the planning stages of a new system at school. For 50% off I couldn't resist and ordered a new skimmer. Won't go into operation for at least a few months, but I couldn't buy it for the same price used.

 

[Gtinnel]

Curse this 50% off sale. I couldn’t resist and just bought a calcium reactor.
Now I need to go to bed before I screw up and buy a skimmer that I also don’t need.

Seriously though does anyone know why BRS is selling the stuff for such a huge discount?

Cutting ties with them obviously.

I would assume, I’m more curious if it means the Aquamaxx is going out of business completely. I’m just wandering if I will ever be able to find parts for the stuff I’m buying if needed.

ETA- I just checked on another vendors site and nothing is one sale, so hopefully it’s just that BRS is going to stop selling their products.

Looks like they are rebranding at least some of it based on today’s marketing email. Its AquaReady now.

I don't know why the sale but thanks for the heads up. I grabbed a sigma 2 reactor and two frag racks.

Yeah then realized I already have 80 frag racks. It's a sickness.

 

[Gill the 3rd]

Im really glad I saw this. Ive been looking to the get the T3 calcium reactor for a while now. Just pulled the trigger on it. Thanks!

 

[Naekuh]

Dayam you guys.. couldn't resist the frag holders, as you can never have too many on standby....

Any word tho if the plastic seal breaks and the magnets start to corrode?
