Thinking of getting same chiller as yours.. How much did shipping set you back?
Postage was about $90 from Sewatec, but I had a hand full of other items in my cart as well so I went with the up to 2500 euro insurance, I think if you only insured it for 500 euro is was cheaper again.

ahh ok, i ran a 500a on a 5 footer with MH etc when I was last at como and it only rang 15 mins out of the hour Im thinking your place must be like a furnace!

I think my chillers foot print is probably about 30% smaller than the 500a, which was another reason I went with it.

Where abouts is yours going to be positioned?
next to it in the corner of the room. I dont mind the look of them

tank looks good, Was a good sight to see after that long rock climbing/bush walking adventure to yours.
Should of offered us cold beverages for our tremendous effort.

Seen this in person the other day and its an amazing tank ! Not inly is the display amazing but Everything's so neat and tidy underneath ! People don't give enough credit to the thought out into the sump and everything else in this tank and its a big part of how it all comes together !

That sump is an effort of a hour each night going to sleep for about six months, I really did have much else to think about while waiting for the tank

hehhee yeah clearly my skills as a host leave somewhat to be disired, Josh M got mini cheese cakes though ! but he did bring his own beers and some extras for the host.... I didn't see you bring any beers! (not that I can drink them)

How many people have we got lined up to move your beast?
