I have used that same pump. You are never going to be able to match the flow rate of the two heads perfectly. You will probably also have a problem turning it down low enough for two part. They are...

I switched over to Elos from Salifert. They seem to be much better quality than Salifert and they are traceable to NIST.

Washing machine w/bleach and line dry. They will last for years, literally. I have 10 socks and change them out every 2-3 days. I have been using these same socks for about 3 years now.

I have a 90gal 30x30x24 with a single halide in a luminarc hood. Works well but only really lights the center 24"x24" well, so I would say that 30x30 is the most that you can do with a single bulb.

It is actually a 20+ gal sump, but runs with 10-12 gallons in it. There is just not much room in the stand. Its sounds like the ATI is going to be the best bet. Thanks for the replies.

Thanks for the reply. Yeah I am also looking at the APF600, but $900 for a skimmer seems crazy. I am conserned about the quality of the ATI, But I could buy two for the price of the one Deltec.
