#2 Would like to win the 600 as I only have a 125 gal, and I have slowly been rebuilding my sump. I like that deltec mentions they use the product and work on it.

Entry #2 - i would be happy with either fleece filter, I've been looking at the different ones. In theory my water would be ran through 10.5 times every hour.

Bonus entry 1.

I am in the middle of a build and have been searching for a skimmer. There are so many choices. My total water volume will be around 200 gallons so the 1000 Series caught my eye.

Like others I have had so many skimmer issues over the years and overflowing is one of those repeated failures. The skimmer's features include a solution for this.

The footprint is even more impressive for the water volume this skimmer can handle.

With todays energy prices the energy saving is a huge plus.

This skimmer kind of makes me jealous because something like this just isn't in the budget. I know your skimmer is worth every penny but there just isn't enough of them.

If I had one of these I would show it off every chance I could. It is very nice.

Bonus entry 2.

The fleece roller I would choose is the VF5000. It's the perfect size and flow for my build. I like the gearless design and it's ability to be hung ,,,, which appears adjustable.

Bonus entry 3.

I have been eyeing going with a calcium reactor for a few months now. My SPS growth is starting to make it difficult for 2 part to keep up ... it's getting expensive. I have been trying to make a decision and even the Kalkwasser reactor caught my eye.

Bonus entry 4.

The E-Flow series return pumps. I am going with an external pump on my current build.

I want to have the least amount of wires in my water. It's not easy finding a return pump to trust.

Bonus 4: The E-Flow 16. You can never have too much flow (especially when it’s controllable)

Bonus 2:
Fleece rollers are magical pieces of equipment. I've always wanted to test them out! The insanely high flow rate is the best feature of these Deltec rollers, I think.

Bonus 1: Either would be fantastic but the bigger the better for skimmers (think future upgrade use) so the 1000 for me

8000 series due to same dimensions except 1.5 inches wider at the top and can handle much more water volume.

I would first take the kalk stirrer but if strictly a reactor it would be the TWIN-TECH CALCIUM REACTOR (CRTT SERIES), the largest one I could afford. Fully automated sounds awesome. Use it for sps blowout tank.

I would try KAMOER FX-STP WIFI CONTINUOUS-DUTY PERISTALTIC DOSING CALCIUM REACTOR PUMP simply because it is the best in our business with proven results.
