What do you guys think? Is this a quality set up, or just you get what you pay for?
Thanks

Uh... WOW.... is all I can say if these are of any quality. Ive never heard of them before and tried a google search for reviews but didnt really find anything. Id be interested in this as well, hopefully someone has some insight on them.

Well it sounds too good to be true....

:yes:I'd bet a flooring contractor started that business:yes:

If they're just reselling SCA stuff.....call SCA and see if they're legit.

I have the same skimmer, just the old model number and it is built solid. There are a few legnthy threads on RC about it. I believe the company is trying to expand its business beyond skimmers from what I heard.

I just called they and they said they are also having a shipping special and can get it to a residential address in Atlanta for $100 - so it would be $700 shipped. I forgot to ask about taxes.

Not a bad deal and i'm mighty tempted!

Lol.....with additional bonus middleman........at no cost!

It's also on Ebay and Amazon, with a nice mark up of course but looks like exact package. I have emailed and messages several sellers asking for additional information. Anyone going to be the Gina pig and order it? Please let me know if you do, it would be nice to get a look up close.
It honestly looks to good to be true, but.....I want it
(Of course lol)


I would love to see one a few years old!

I like the dimensions on their 66g and 90g tanks.

I guess the only thing you need is lights for the system.

 

[camellia]

I'm trying to find a local retailer so that I can go look at it.
Do you think it's a decent set-up?

 

[ripped tide]

It looks like the stand is made out of that press board

 

[camellia]

Yes, at that price I'm sure it is. Even considering a new stand once ruined, do you think the tank, sump and equipment are worth it?
