 No one has been building Berlin Systems, Sumps,
Wet/Drys and good Protein Skimmers longer than Jeff Turcheck at
Lifereef!
29
years of fantastic Lifereef products, superior design, EXPERIENCE, and great
customer service!
No other U.S. company has been making Wet/Dry
Filters, Berlin Systems, reliable Protein Skimmers, Fail-Proof Prefilter
Overflows, and numerous other reef filtration products as long as
Lifereef.
Since 1984 Jeff has been supplying the
discriminating hobbyist with fantastic products and continues to put quality
before quantity, truthfullness before false advertising, and real expectations
instead of unrealistic and misleading claims.
Customer service is an enjoyable part of your
Lifereef experience both before and long after the sale! Calls and emails are returned the same day, or no
later than 24 hours.
Lifereef, for 29 years the name says it
all!
Sad, but true.......
and unfortunately, might be you......
A typical Lifereef customer
is usually not a first-time purchaser. Most of the orders I receive are
from those that have tried putting together a sump from company A, a protein
skimmer from company B, a pump as recommended by someone on a bulletin board,
numerous trips to the hardware store to get more parts, fittings, hose/pipe,
more fittings, more pipe, more hose, more time on the bulletin boards, etc.
Once up and somewhat running they then spend weeks and months working out more
problems such as turbulence, micro-bubbles, noise, too small of a sump,
overflowing sumps, overflowing aquariums, refugium problems, then back to the
bulletin boards for more "advice" from those wanting to help but cause even
more problems.
Then when that frustrated hobbyist does
further research and finds Lifereef, usually after numerous recommendations and
testimonials from the bulletin boards, they give Lifereef a look, like what
they see, enjoy what I have to say, and love what they end up
getting.
NOTE: I pay no advertising fees on any
bulletin board for "gratuities". I point this out because it is often a
bulletin board moderator will pull off any negative comments against one of
their advertisers.
From the day your boxes arrive with your
very own Lifereef System (or any Lifereef product) you will love unpacking the
system, admiring it, installing it (all parts are included), filling it with
water for a "dry run" test just to satisfy your curiosity and wonder and
amazement that something really works as advertised, adding salt, filling the
LifeReefugium with sand and algae, maybe a fish or two, adjusting the protein
skimmer, and sitting back in wonder that it all really works! No time wasted on
bulletin board "advice", no more trips to the hardware store for odd parts,
just pure satisfaction!
And if you happen to be a first-time
Lifereef customer: Congratulations! You have just saved yourself $$ and
headaches and have joined an exclusive Lifereef community of happy and
satisfied customers!
With Lifereef you will NEVER regret your
purchase!
Setting up a true workable filter system is not as simple as
getting a sump, a skimmer, a water pump, and sticking it all together with
tubes and pipes. In other words: it is not an "off the shelf" project of just
sticking things together. At best you will luck out, at worst you will live
with that contraption, spend more time, effort, and money until you can afford
a real system. That is the biggest problem my customers tell me when they are
replacing their current "system" with a Lifereef, their multi-brand "system"
just didn't work as planned or promised, looks like you know what, and when
they see and use a Lifereef system it all makes sense.
That is why I will spend the time needed discussing your needs,
your space, your aquarium, your current equipment, etc so that you have a true
system designed to function as a system, not a conglomeration of multi-brand
products.
THE DOWNSIDE OF
HAVING A LIFEREEF SYSTEM..........
Having people spend more time
looking at your Lifereef System and not
your aquarium! Tip: Show them your aquarium first, then when they
ask to see the filtration open the doors!
Hmmmmm. Seems that "old technology" is working just fine.... And
with much less maintenance too!
The self-cleaning venturi means your skimmer water level will
remain constant, no daily/weekly adjustments, quiet, efficient, SIMPLE
PERFECTION!
Needle-wheel
skimmers are venturi skimmers..... the venturi is that thing on the front of
the pump that sucks in the air. Our venturi is after the pump and don't require
a specialized, and more costly, proprietary pump to produce bubbles. SIMPLER,
QUIETER, MORE EFFICIENT! click here for

REEF FLASH
UPDATE!!!!
All Lifereef LF2 Wet/Dry Filters, CLF1/CLF2 and
LF1 Series Sumps now have a 3.5" diameter Upflow Media Reactor mount for the
installation of the soon-to-be available Lifereef Reverse Flow Media Reactor!
Everyone has been asking for a Lifereef Reverse Flow Reactor so I have been
working on several prototypes and finally have one very close to excellent! A
3" model may be next.
Contrary to what others are saying
about reverse flow or fluidized canisters and the use of carbon in these: Only
some phosphate media and bio-pellets are best suited for reverse/fluidized
flow. All other media like carbon, nitrate removers, resins, any granular
media, is best used in a flow-through canister. Water must be pushed
through the carbon pores to be effective, not
around it.
Lifereef sumps have the necessary in-sump-mount for 3 media
reactors. No loose-in-your-sump-hoses-all-over-the-place look but a nice
organized sump area that is a joy to work with!
Need a nice retro-looking light bracket to hold up your light?
