I'm trying to convince my brother to buy a 12g aqua pod since they dont want regular tank. How often does one need to make water changes in these pods if you dont use a skimmer?

Harry i was only inquiring with PA about the external models so you may want to contact PA about the insump only models. Jason usually replies within a day. Ive never heard complaints from the people that i know who own the in sump models.

does anyone on the club have a crosshatch trigger? I'm thinking of getting one early next year. I'd love to see pictures if you have one . thx Peter pistolpete1215@yahoo.com

I'm definitely going to wait until the exreme series is out because i just read the specs on the nw-200 and its only rated for up to 175g. hopefully the extreme 200 is rated higher as the 250 price is $475...ouch!!

Hi Wendy what size tank are you running the NW-200?

do you use it in sump or external ?

anyone here have any experience/knowledge of Octopus skimmers? I was looking at the NW 200 and saw theyre coming out with an extreme series soon. I've heard they're compatible with ASM except these can be used in sump or external.

did you just get this fish recently ?
