What size tank is it for. What kind of inhabitants do you have or will have? You could also post this on Euro Reef forum. PS are you in Cal.?

the cs-180 , rs-180 and 8-2 are basically the same as far as body size. the sedra 5000 is quieter than the genx-4100
the rs-180 included the sp4 which is the genx pump the sp3 originally cam with the 8-2. the tradeoff is the sp3 has less lph than the sp4 .. however if you mesh mod the sedra 5000 than your getting close to the genx-4100. the only problem is the genx pump is much louder.

i modded my 6-2 and turned it into a rc-135 and love it.. perfect for up to a 125 gallon in my opinion.

the cs has to do with the acrylic which stands for cast acrylic.
its supposebly more durable. but has really nothing to do with its functionality.

what size of tank are you looking to put this on
