Just placed my order for a UNS R120 Shallow. Looks like UNS just restocked everything in the shallow line.

I ordered with Top Shelf Aquatics, Frank is an absolute legend and helped me every step of the way with my countless questions and concerns.

Now to order pumps and wavemakers.............
 
Exciting! I think you might be the first R120S thread on R2R.
 
I will have to post the journey! If I was going with a Sicce SDC do you think the 6.0 or 7.0?
I have the R90 which, despite being less length, is about the same volume as the R120S and I use a Jebao DCP-5000 and run it at 45% to achieve roughly 3 turnovers through the sump per hour, with room to add a UV or similar down the line if needed

it looks like the Sicce SDC 6.0 has about the same flow rating and even slightly better head pressure curve so I think you will find the 6.0 to be plenty
