I just received my Red Sea Reefmat today, I've been putting it off for while just getting by with filter cups and floss. However I must say for the price the build quality is excellent! I did a dry run of putting it all together so I could understand the mechanisms. It's all designed very well, you can tell a lot of thought went into it, and as I said it's solid, it's got heft, the parts are quality and all slot together with ease. I'm really excited to get it setup.
Which leads me to my question...
The main reason I'd been putting it off so long is I have a Reefer 425XL and I have to "modify" my sump. Which is a fancy way of saying you've got to cut all the silicone and remove the existing filter cup baffles. I'm looking for advice from anyone who's done it before. Are there any tips or things you'd do different? I purchased the official RS sump modification kit as I heard the tools provided are actually a big help. Anyone have anything more to add?
