I have a reef octopus and my 75 and I love it, it pulls out some seriously nasty crap. Got it from bulk reef supply. As far as acrylic goes, a full sheet of quarter inch cell cast acrylic should cost about 80-100 bucks. Check the web for a local plastic and glass supplier.
I have heard good things about the Aqua Maxx Protein skimmers, and the Octopus Reef skimmers. I am going to order a Octopus 150 for my 55 gallon reef. You can find these skimmers at marinedepot.com. That is a good site you should check it out. Good Luck!
i have the nac 7 on my 110. pulls a fair amount out, quiet. my impeller shattered the other day for no reason, but it does come with a spare, they are picky on the water level though.
Hello, Just fyi, I believe that Petco is still running there Dollar a gallon for tank Sales. Maybe check that out. My Local HD didnt sell Acrylic but, Lowes did carry it. Also, always check out Craigslist for your area, sometime you can find a tank there as well. Best of luck, Aaron
Hi, From what I know, I don't think you want to fool with Lexan. Thats another whole beast. It is the bullet proof stuff. I guess it could be used if it was on hand, but you want acrylic. I think Marc mentions a brand of acrylic called Acrylite or something like that on Meleev's Reef. I can't remember what you bond Lexan with anymore without doing a google...lol. Here is that brand over at US Plastics : http://www.usplastic.com/catalog/ite...3554&catid=442 fewjr
