If there are any suggestions on mods or bragging pics of your Reeftek this is the place for them. Any questions relating to this skimmer can be asked here.

I have a TS1 on a 180l system and it works very well.

Mekaeel · 25 Nov 2007

ive got my ts1 on my 200l cube.found the best way to get it to perform was to raise the skimmer at this level.

Sheesh mekaeel you have a disco going on in your cabinet?

Mekaeel · 25 Nov 2007

yeah.i'll post a video with the strobes flashing :lol:

Mekaeel · 25 Nov 2007

was the resun pumps on the reeftek skimmers replaced with the reefoctopus OTP 1000 or OTP 500?

millepora · 26 Nov 2007

Neither Mekaeel. It was only the King 3 pumps that where replaced as they were the only ones that had a once off problem. They were replaced with OTP 2000 pumps. Cool

Mekaeel · 26 Nov 2007

thanks Andrew.jut read through your post on the Reefoctopus thread

SIMS · 26 Nov 2007

You guys think it's worth trying to mad the TS1 to be mesh wheel?

Mekaeel · 26 Nov 2007

sounds like a good idea.you do yours first and show me then i'll do it

cybervic · 26 Nov 2007

Don't they have needlewheel pumps already?

Alan · 26 Nov 2007

The mesh wheel mod works very well. The mesh wheel is what the BM comes out with standard and Bubble King are now changing over.

Yes they do but I think Sims wants to do a mesh wheel mod. It's different to needlewheel. Don't have pics handy right now but there is a thread about it on here.

SIMS · 26 Nov 2007

Think I'll give it a bash this weekend....

Mekaeel · 26 Nov 2007

do the resun pumps also have a needlewheel?never opened mines to check

Alan · 26 Nov 2007

Yip i think they do Mekaeel.

Mekaeel · 26 Nov 2007

thanks Alan
