Yeah that's the realization. The Red Sea skimmer is oversized for me and I also have an in sump skimmer so I've put the upgrade on that back burner ...... sorta lol. I'm planning on setting up the spare bedroom as a coral propagation room so as of now funds will be diverted to that. Part of the livestock abundance hehe. Also I have another of the Red Sea new in box so I think I will upgrade the skimmer (still not sure if I'm gonna plunk down the big $ for the orca or try the hydor) for the display and move my red sea(s) to the frag tanks.

I sure like the look of that orca but the greg autograph model seems pretty nice too esp at that price!
It looks like they'll send out my skimmer the first part of next week.
It looks like you might have taken advantage of their buy two get one free special.

Good news on your skimmer. I'm excited for you! Can't wait to get your review of it. I did take advantage of their freebie deal but I scaled back lol. At first I had like 8 pieces in my cart but the reality of not having enough real estate in my tank stopped me. Boy oh boy I need to get my frag tanks! Can't decide to build, buy off ebay, or keep cruising Craigslist. Decisions, decisions.

Nice looking setup Keith ,... My hammerhead magnet algae remover is also stuck on my tank in roughly the same spot as yours,... Must be the spot of choice!

Thanks Dary. Somehow it seems correct on that side and feels off on the other side hehe.

Looking at the FTS pic again I see used the worst possible pic lol.

Lol,...!!!!! Don't let mrs Keith beat me up if you get the orca ,..it's not my fault

[Keithhjs]

Yeah I really wanted that skimmer and I came REALLY close to ordering it but right about that time we decided to start the frag room and so I had to decide between a $1600 skimmer for the DT or spend that for LED lights for the frag room. The LED won lol.
