RBX it is then, whys it cheaper, anybody know?

probably due to the less amount of copper?
Who knows, perhaps its easier to fabricate.
 
I've used both the Danger Den RBX, and Maze-4, and I'm currently using the RBX. I absolutely love it. It comes with five accelerator nozzles which allow you to adjust water flow. You can use almost any pump with it because of this, however, I recommend a higher Gph so you can use the "spray" nozzle. I'm runing the RBX, and Z-chipset block off the Hydor L30. It came with the Maze-4 Powerkit, for $199, and you get the Maze-4 block, Black Ice Xtreme Radiator, Sunon 120mm fan, 1.5 meter of 1/2" tubing, Water Weter, clamps, clear reservoir, and even Arctic Silver. There's another block I'd like to try too, the CF1;

And here's the set-up in the ole box. Check out my site for the coldest temps ever attined in H20 without cooling the water. Of course I have the components on the floor, below a window I crack about 8". It's been about -65C here in the North East, and my lowest day was -1.0C YES it's true.

Here's the screenie from the day I could see my breath in my room. Of course that's not so radical considering people are mixing Flournert with LN2;

im not planning on going pelt for a good while yet, as i dont have the funds and/or electricity supplies :p to cater for it.

what pump is reccommended for the RBX, is the Eheim 1084 good, or would it be worth investing in the 1250?
