    I think they had a prototype at MAX a few months ago right? Euro-Reef has nice stuff, and will custom design stuff too. Their skimmers were too tall for my sump area, so they offered to custom make one, but it did drive the price up quite a bit.

    Yeah the one pictured is a beast at 24"x6" - I am thinking of getting one for this 75-show FOWLR my friends want to setup at this bar as that is a lot of skimmer for the money. I noticed the VS100 is only 20".
