SRC Member tigershark Posted November 4, 2003 Author SRC Member Share Posted November 4, 2003 Aqua-C, Euro-reef, H&S not around because cannot afford... if you notice, the brand I posted is mostly those more affordable ones...

SRC Member ozy Posted November 4, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted November 4, 2003 I have tried the WeiPro and Prizm. Personally I prefer the WeiPro. I think it is more worth the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuEl Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 One thing about Weipro..don't follow the water level indicated on the body column...I stupidly did so until someone at an aquarium told me that the water level should be up to the neck..which was what I thought it should be...but sometimes I tend to trust instructions better than my own judgement. It is skimming coffee as I speak. Quote Always something more important than fish. http://reefbuilders.com/2012/03/08/sps-pico-reef/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is skimming coffee as I speak. that marking means the water level is recommended to be higher than that, not recommended to be there wat maybe becos china made, their ang moh got problem lah...

SRC Member dradttg Posted November 8, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted November 8, 2003 I have been using Prizm but I wont vote for it. Never produce any of the kopi-o I have seen from the Weipro photos. Before anyone comment about my settings, I must say there is nothing wrong with my settings because there is only water flow control.

SRC Member CalciumReef Posted November 9, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted November 9, 2003 I maintain my water level in my weipro slightly above the stated level to ensure its really gunk skimmed out...or else it always tends to be waterly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
