What's in the box?
Right now it’s the Milwaukee, Hanna alk and ulr phosphorus ppb checker, the full RedSea foundations pro, NYOS nitrate, and a chefs thermometer. If the Hanna nitrate checker turns out to work well that will go in there as well!

Gotta say, doing this was my game changer for manual testing!

I went today and got one! Pretty excited about loading it up. I got the large. What size is yours, im’a temperamental coral?
Honestly I don’t remember. We pulled all the stickers off of it but I will absolutely post the measurements of it when I get home for you!

Found it!

Apache weatherproof protective case. The orange you have is the large size(14 7/8 x 10 5/8), looked a little large for me. So I opted for the medium(11 7/8 x 9).

Great fine either way.
I made a thread for these I hope y’all post what you come up with for yours!!!!

Well when I handle Julians thing it helps to blow off small pieces of my substrate of a plating coral after my fish cleans its home.

Could you post a link to where you bought this case on Harbor Freight?
Hubby went in and looked at all the boxes they had before deciding on this one. But here is a link to the boxes they have online. I highly recommend putting hands on them to figure out the best size for your needs though.

Agree, I looked online first hoping it would tell me if they had them at my store, and if I would’ve have ordered I would’ve gotten the xl. I went to the store and got a large, the xls seemed huge. My store had lots of them, on the back wall and also on an end cap.

This may have been a waste of money but I got this and loved it...

Advertised at 1000 gph, it makes water changes so fast it’s crazy. It’s really easy to use and convenient too since it uses drill batteries. Unfortunately I only had mine for a year and now the switch stopped working, I’m going to try to fix it but if I can’t i’ll probably buy another one. I have 5 tanks and it just saves me so much time doing water changes. The only downside is that it’s too powerful to put water back in the tank, it’s like using a firehose and will make a huge sandstorm and break corals.
