URI (AKA UVL) certainly makes the best VHO bulbs out there and make very good T5s. Haven't heard anything about their PCs

You could try asking the company, but my Selcon has turned gooey as well on occassion and I still have used it. I'm not sure it's doing much good in that state, but it doesn't seem to hurt anything....

I don't think there's much you can do. It's one of the compromises of the cheap Resun pump. You can't expect the world for what that skimmer sells for. Part of what you pay for with a BK, for...

If it's good quality laminate and you promptly wipe up all spills it should be OK. If, however, you have a flood while you're away on vacation that's another matter.

Have plenty of towels handy.

Use the waste water to wash your clothes. That RO waste water is cleaner than what comes out of your tap since it has already gone through sediment and carbon filters.

Arrgghh!!! Yet another tank loss caused by "relatives". I don't know how many times I've seen this happen. "Relatives" are more deadly to reef tanks than dinoflagellates and red bugs combined!...

Never used a deltec reactor before but 1 bubble/3 secs sounds a little low. I'd bump up the bubble rate. I'm running just about 1 bubble/sec for my Geo reactor now.

Eheim, my friend, Eheim.

Quiet, reliable and underrated in terms of flow.

I clean mine maybe once a year and it has never ever failed to restart (knock on wood).

Both the 6105 and 6205 are Stream2s and are controllable. That's a typo on J&L's part. There's even a more powerful 6305 available....
