Anybody need one of these,,, Iwaki WMD 40 RLT- $75.00 Genx PCX-40 Mak4 like new w/ box and warranty-$110. LMK and I'll bring them to the meeting. Both are 3/4" in/out The Mak4 is 1190 GPH.The Mak4 is almost same as an Iwaki 55, the Iwaki 40 is just a tad smaller. Both in excellent shape.

Curtis I am buying a 210 and will need a pump but do you think a 1200 gallon will be enough flow for that large of a tank?

That's what I am going to use, around 1190, Mak4. Actually you don't want a ton of water going thru the sump. The dual Megaflos are rated at 600 GPH each. They suggest to be safe to only run them at 75-80% of volume, so either on of these pumps would be ideal. I have several. The Mak4 is pressure rated and basically the same as an Iwaki 55 RLT, it is good for running Beckett skimmers like the MRC MR2 or PM Bullet 2. LMK, You could use the Iwaki for your sump , and the Mak 4 for your skimmer. I am not worried about a ton of flo from the overflows. I am planning on building a CL with a Calfo style manifold for my main circulation, run by a pr of lg Sequence Darts. LMK what you want to do, later, Curt.

Philliph - good to hear your plans, hope those corals are doing well although you run more light on your 75g than I do on my 125g.

Curious to hear you lighting plans for the 210g - look out A.E.P.

They may need to up the capacity at their Crosslanes sub-station.

LOL, Loyd I plan on running three 400 watt halides and some VHO for actinic supplementation.
