I have a Precision Marine Billet 3 on the way and will be able to give you first had knowledge of it in a couple weeks. Tangster has used them recently and has switched from the ETSS skimmers to the PM. You can also wait for Jason Mc. to type in because he uses a PM Ca reactor.

A Prizim is junk as are all HOB skimmers Now the red sea Berlin classic if a fine skimmer and not many is its range can hang with it I love then on smaller tank and dollar for Dollar they will hold their own with in there class.

I had been a ETSS lover for yrs many of them for larger and commercial type system still am for 5,000 Gals and up.. But The Precision marine Bullet series are great skimmers I am happy I took the old ETSS off line now Its does a hell of a job for me and all systems we use them one .

OK ! You folks with the reffrences to Red Sea and Prizm are making me puke !!!!

Precision Marine is like a ferrari compared to a yugo, if youa re mentioning these skimmers.

If you are even asking this question, you are like a major noob !!!

Maybe Galaxy Level Admiral Extrodinare Noob !

OMG !!!

I cannot even continue this thread .....
