I just left Gary a message actually, I'm going to go with the one smaller, the 3500.

I just received the pool on saturday - it was shipped freight. So it's going up in the next few days. Keep meaning to email you, and then I get sidetracked with work or insurance BS.


No problem. your sharks are doing well. Got any plans for other sharks or rays in the new pool?

That skimmer is plenty big for what your doing
 
Ooooh, fancy!

I just got word today (fingers crossed) we might be turing our 250,000 gallon Reef into a closed system. Right now it's running open - water is pumped in from the bay and runs right back out. Closed would be adding a set of big RK2s (and other stuff). I'm stoked if we do it!!!!

The RK2 I posted has a 4 foot diameter to the main body.

I think RK2's biggun has a 12' diameter tower. Might be 8' - either way, HUGE!

those are big skimmers, RK2 the only ones the public aquariums use? I have see different big skimmers that size online.
 
I used ETSS on my 1500 gallon set ups in Dallas. Did a custom made unit on the bigger tanks. We use Emperor Aquatics on the 500s here in Miami and the RK2s on the bigger exhibits (that aren't open systems).
 
I'm ordering up an ETSS 5000 this week for my pool. Waiting for them to get back to me.
