what to get for my next build????

[ryanncully]

I will be setting up a rimless DSA 105 for my next build. I will be building the stand myself (hopefully it goes well), I have the roller mat sump from elite aquatics with custom colors picked out and ready to order (if i pull the trigger), all my matching plumbing except a few more gate valves to get but for the most part have all the plumbing I need.

I have a chiller and a Pax Bellum reactor I am planniing on using. but the question is what reactor and skimmer will i go with?....

I really like the Nyos 160 but that is pricey, I also like some of Skimz and Reef Octo skimmers.

Now with the reactors I would like to hard plumb 2 or 3 into my loop and I like the Biotek Bio series (they also match my color scheme) but the fittings dont look they will allow me to plumb them hard into the system. So I am really wanting some feedback and input from everyone.

Thanks

Ryann

You could always cut the existing fittings of and glue new fitting to the reactors. Another suggestion with the ractors is to contact Bioteck and see if the can custom the fittings that you need.

Seems like quite a few go with the Reef Octo skimmers, I went with RLSS skimmer and like it

Yeh I could call them and see what they could do that's a good idea
