Tell Us About Your Aquarium.
what brand is it - is it a custom build or a off-the-shelf aquarium?

Is it an all-in-one or does it have a sump, or maybe a canister filter?

How many gallons is it, and what are the dimensions?

Is it a mixed reef, fish only SPS dominant? Or, maybe a freshwater build?​

I have five tanks, but my main display tank is a standard 75 gallon Marineland aquarium. It is an sps only system. It has a standard Aqueon 29 gallon aquarium as a sump.

Five Tanks? NICE!

I think we only have 4 tanks here that the office, but We'll catch up soon enough- LOL

This 75-gallon tank looks amazing - love the colors, How long has it been running?

This tank is about 4 ½ years old. I just did a massive fragging in it to increase flow. It used to be packed like this a few months ago.

eShopps Deskmate Classic. Put water in it back in February 2023:

If you're unfamiliar with these tanks, it's an all-in-one.

It's just shy of a 5 gallon tank (4.8 gallons), and measures in at 11" x 12" x 10"

I'm running this as a mixed reef tank. I"ve got 2 clowns, 9 snails, 2 hermits, and a mixture of SPS, LPS and Zoas

Currently running the tank with 1 RFG, and depending on how much SPS I get going in this little tank, I may later upgrade it to the dual flow kit! Been using your products since you started with my old BioCube!

Love these little @ESHOPPS.INC tanks. We have one too - but we take our to the shows.

That single RFG will do well - even if you upgrade the pump. But if you deice to go with a dual I would suggest a pump in the 250 GPH range if you can fit it.

I need to setup one of their new ones in the line up - Thinking of getting a Marianna. Always wanted to try and drop-off style tank.

If I got a second...I"d want the Florida so I could get some torches and put them on the far side of the tank!

Deskmates are like potato chips - you can stop at just one :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

Actually , that might be true for aquariums in general - LOL

I have a custom made 400g - 112" long and I happen to use your RFG units which were purchased from Saltwater .com and can use two more. They were super easy to connect without any tools or modification and are rubbery yet hard as plastic and perform well !

Wow - 400 gallons?!

That is a nice sized tank. The largest aquarium I have ever had the opportunity to own has been 150 gallons

Sounds like you have our new Flex-Series RFGs on your tank - They do work really well - in fact slightly better than the O.G. rigid model, especially under high flow, because they actually flex ever so slightly (about 1 to 2 degrees), which enhances the overall effect.

Post a FTS - would love to see it.
