HOB refugiums

[azcummins]

What's everyone's experience been with hang on back (HOB) refugiums?

i've found some nice tanks on craigslist, but none of them are drilled (which is what I really want), so I'm considering the HOB refugium option, but I can't seem to find an reviews or opinions of them.

So, I humbly turn to the MFK.com community...

Ehhhh...I'm not real impressed with the overflow box idea...rather have a drilled tank as there is less risk of something going wrong.

cpr with vaccuum pump is perfect always restarts my friend ran one for years on his reef tank... imo set up right no chance for failure
