Is that the sp3

It's the female end of a union.

Yes it's a aqua bee 2000l and thanks dcreefer

Does anyone run a apf600. I just got one off of craigslist, took it home and the recirculating pump is trashed. Go figure, I guess that's the risk of buying used sometimes. I was looking to rebuild it but it seems that it's not really worth rebuilding because it will happen again soon. Sooo I'm hoping for some help on retro pump or just thinking about putting a bubble blaster on it and plumbing it in somehow, but I'm not really sure what size or what route to take.

That place is a joke, the worst part is they probably knew they didnt work. It would be tragic if someone accidentally dropped a bottle of copper in their coral tub. Jk. Just remember what goes around comes around..... Karma will pay them back for you.

The fact that they say invoice sent to your email has scam written all over it. I've seen one place that sells them online and they are very strict on who they sell them too. Plus they usually cost about 2500.00 to 3000.00 smackers

I've seen it at house of tropicals in the pond section.

On my old system i had the same issue so I put a tee in my 1/4" line, turned it vertically and secured it about 2 ft above the tank and left the end open, the lower line goes into sump. This prevented any siphon.

I have gs1 and love it!! By far the best I have had. Well built and customer service is great...plus the price is awesome, compared to other cones

Thanks everyone!! Thats the answer I was looking for. I realy like my phoenix bulbs on my 150w set up and I wanted to stay with the same bulb when I upgraded, But I didnt want to go with a 250w magnetic ballast.

Home depot sells these...http://www.toolbarn.com/milwaukee-48-25-2001.html...I use these and they work like a champ. Or you could order it....http://www.toolbarn.com/irwin-47418.html

I will probably just run the bulbs and see how it goes. Thanks!!!

Thats what I thought as well. I read up on it and Icecap says there ballast will power these bulbs so I was going to go that route, But I was told by a fellow reefer (that has alot more experience than me) that they wouldn't perform well on the icecap vs the magnetic BW. So I was all kinda confused. Thats why I figured I would just get a bulb that was designed for an electrionic ballast and sell or return the phoenix bulbs.

No I havent bought the 250w ballast yet. I had 150's and I'm upgrading everything to 250's. I bought the bulbs a few months ago, but had to wait until now to get the rest of the equipment. I was going to go with the icecap ballast but I was told that the electronic ballast will not drive the phoenix bulb correctly, So I wanted opinions on a electronic de bulb with a color similar to the phoenix.
