Default ASM G-1 vs. G-1x

Does anyone Know the skippy between the two. The max tank size goes from 100 gal to 150, and the pump goes from the sedra 2500 to the 3500. It sounds fantastic for $4.00 more.

ASM doesn't even have the G 1 on their site anymore.

Could have discontinued it.

I ordered my G-3 Sunday and I'm getting it on Friday. Can't wait

Is a (G1X) (ASM) strong enough for a 75g plus 30g sump/refug? I saw the web sight and it only recommends a 75gallon tank. Just wondered if anyone else had an opinion.

I'd go with the G3 if you can afford it and it will fit in your sump. Going a little larger than your needs - never a problem.

Thats what(G3) i want but thatpetplace is currently out, and I am going there later this morning its about a six hour drive so I figured if I could get by I would get the (G1X) to go with the 30g breeder for the sump/refug. Thanks, I guess I will wait to order that when its back in stock.
