Ever heard of Aquaricare, Surgarium, MMFI or EZTANK.COM?

This is a website I stumbled upon while surfing and decided to check it out. It is a longwinded, somewhat elusive introduction to actually get to the aquarium products they offer, but is quite interesting.

www.eztank.com

The site basically claims that all other "aquarium filtration systems are poisoning the animals we are trying to keep alive" because of bacterial filtration.

I know I rely on my live rock and deep sand bed in my Nano tank for filtration. This site claims that " 'Berlin' or Live-Rock Systems, and most other filter systems injure and kill your aquarium animals over time".

The site also claims that "the only filtration needed is algae and a good prefilter".

Anyways, before I describe the whole sight, I would like for some of my fellow aquarists here to check this out and voice your opinions on what is described at this site. I am very interested to hear what others may think of eztank.com?

I read all I could take of it, and decided it is just an expensive predrilled tank. acrylic sump, algea scrubber and filter pad. I put together a sample setup on there, a 125 gallon with MH, wavemaker, blah blah blah, on a maple stand and it would cost $23,000, or if I buy it before mid feb, it would be on sale for $18,500. I think its for people that are really wealthy, uninformed, lazy, and want it all in 1 box, ready to go and not have to make a single trip to Lowes. I have seen similar companies with mega expensive tanks for casinos and las vegas hotels, and most of it looks like the same old crap !!
