Cost me about US$1.1k including $70 shipping. I love Ebay's Global Shipping Program.

If you do the math, this is considerably cheaper than using bottled dechlorinator or little cartridge sets that need replacement every few months.

That said, I will be installing a small 2 stage cartridge set behind this tank to filter out loose carbon particles.

Bio filtration shower in place for fitting. Will be cutting a hole in the deck for the water to fall through.

Solid solid bro
