Look for a used Euroreef or one of the newer Tunze skimmers (which are hard to find used - but that should tell you something in and of itself)

The Lotus will be a bit of a waste unless you plan to take it out to the track on at least a semi-regular basis where it was meant to be. And I don't mean simply taking it auto-xing, but a real race...

That was a lot of fun and very informative. The tank and it's support systems wasn't bad either ;)

The "0" in the CCT column means that Sanjay wasn't able to measure the colour temp. I forget the reason (it's in one of his articles I think), but there are often difficulties in the 12K - 18K range.

I've got one working with my multicontroller and 6000. Works great since it's a more recent "fixed" model. Older models had the same clip/prop problems as the 6025 and 6045 and should be avoided.

Why can't you do the HQI/Radium combo with a Lumerarc reflector? The PFO isn't a bad reflector at all but it ain't no lumenarc.
