    How are you liking the Santamonica scrubber? I am thinking of adding one to my new DT set up as well Will probably be getting the SM100.

    I really like this scrubber alot . It is well worth the money, as I said before the quality and workmanship is outstanding.
    These are the pics of the scrubber that has been working for 11 days.
    The algae is slow growing in my opinion, but in all due time things will take off after a few scrubbings of the screen

    So if you are wanting to purchase a SM 100 you won't be disappointed.
    So far I'm Happy

    Good to know. Only thing holding me back is the price lol. Setting up a new system can get expensive real quick. -_-

    Yes it can get expensive but just think spending money on a sump with filtration, sock,bio balls etc, Skimmer and so on.

    1 Algae Scrubber, to do all the work in place of the other filtration.
    If I would have learned of the Algae Scrubber while buying my setup I would have just purchased the scrubber, but thats just me.
    Right now the only thing running on my tank is the scrubber. I removed all the other filtration.

    Well I still need a sump lol. I plan on running a skimmer as a back up/redundancy in the system, since just 1 scrubber most likely won't be enough in the system. I am lookin at around ~180g total system volume. Lets see what happens lol.
