Kory,
The Eazy 200 cost me £995 which at the moment I suppose is about $1900. However seeing how we get stung so high for aquarist kit in the UK I bet you will get it a hell of a lot cheaper. Meant to ask before did you look up the OASE Aquamax pumps which I use with my 660 community, koi and Turtle ponds.
I aim to set my Eazy above my 8 x 4ft sump pond so it will be pump fed with an aquamax. i will then use another aquamax to lift it up to the top bank which will overflow into the 2 levels below before ending up back in the pond. To assist with the filtration I will have a 12" section on each of the top tanks that will be full of alfagrog for extra bacteria.
The only 2 tanks that will not be systemised will be my Gulper cat and Tigrinus that I like to use more RO water with.
If you pm me your address I will get hold of a brochure and post it out to you.
I have stuck a few photos in my Gallery of my 660 aquaria. I filter that with an Oase pressure pond filter along with 2 Fluval 404 external filters. One of these empties out into a narrow tank 8 x 8 inches x 12 feet above the tank which is full of alfagrog less the last 18" which is for the heaters. Wanted a vegetable filter as well but the water kepy evaporating far too quickly.
Regards Darren
