Maxspect LS-90 lagoon thoughts?

[offthehook]

Surprisingly it is hard to find info on these tanks. Not sure if that is a bad or good thing….i did find a few post and thank you to those that answered my questions there but thought I’d post here (hope it is the right forum) to see if anyone else has one of these Lagoon “smart” aquariums from maxpect and your thoughts. Eyeing the LS-90 which is about 60 gallons total. Probably use different lights but other than that comes with skimmer, return pump and gyre. Saw one at my LFS and man it is certainly a heavy duty, quality looking set up.

I just bought the LS-60. I have just set up the HW and did my aquascape. Haven’t filled it with water yet. Everything seems to be of very good quality. It went together fairly easily and seems robust. The plumbing didn’t match the instructions or video but wasn’t too hard to figure out. Any other questions let me know!

Thanks, skimmer , pump all working well with the app? I think I might pull the trigger but so odd that they have been out for a while but no real reviews

I haven’t put water in the tank and gotten that far yet. I’ll let you know once I have it up and running. But honestly everything I’ve read and seen about the skimmer and all that has been good. The build quality is really good.

I have everything plumbed and aquascape almost done

 

[offthehook]

Very nice! I’d Love to see the progress. The return nozzles are flexible to point in different directions right? I also think you can swap them out with a front gate on the overflow if you want.

Wish I had caught it on sale as they are quite pricey but very nice looking!

Yes and yes! I currently just have them pointed down on the sides

It’s still on sale right now!

I am looking at the LS-90. I think 48 gallon display , looks like BRS is out of those . My LFS has one though but not at the sale price however he is giving me some discount so that is nice! Plus the price includes set up and tank transfer so I won’t argue about that

That’s nice, always prefer going through LFS

Can’t wait to see what it looks like when you get it!

Bought it today, should be bringing it and doing the transfer on the 29th. Excited and nervous moving stuff over

Yes! That would be great!

I’m doing one with mine right now. How detailed do people want you to be on those things?

I think as detailed as you want to be is good, I’m a detail kind of person….lol. What size filter socks does it come with? I’m assuming 4 inch, I want to order some

Yeah 4”

Yeah 4”

I shouldn’t use those during cycle correct?
