I heard that coralife product are not that great. Euro-reef skimmers, aguac, asm g-series, PM(precision marine) skimmers, ati bubble master, deltech and red sea are good IMO. Stay away from coralife, odyssea, seaclone, prizm IMO _________ 9YR OLD 90G/55g custom sump/refug Mag18 Aquac 180skimmer 692w MH AC jr,yel&kole tang,midas&convict blenny,B&G chromies,Blk/yel fin chromie blackcap,nemo,neon goby,6line; Blastomussa Merleti,Acan ,BUBBLE,Torch,LTA, Acropora(2) Moon, assort zoas, yel& G star polyps, P&B ricordia, montiporas, cup&candy corals, xenias,B/G mush,flower ane(2), cherry red mussa, dusters,cleaning crew..  |

Id also check out aquacave.com. They have some great octopus skimmers. There just like asm or euro reef, for about half the price. I have an asm and an octopus, and i think the octopus out performs my asm.
