Well im' looking for a Octopus NW 150 skimmer.

I tried reefperfection ..which was recommended by several people on aquariumpros.ca

Unfortunely the site banned me (i still dont know why) and they also removed my thread there asking about any places in east canada that will ship over to BC, vancouver.


Is there any west cost suppliers/LFS that stock these, or any aquarist willing to sell theres ?

No I haven't, But I believe a few people on here have. I might put a order for reef rox in soon though.

We did a group buy from them. It shipped quickly and was quite price effective. The problem I see for you is that any Octopus skimmer is over the $200 cap on their small orders which get the good brokerage fees. If you order something past that $200, then the pricing escalates fast.

Otherwise appears to be good service.

actually aiming for the 168 dollar one.... that 200 limit doens't include taxes does it.. i've never really ordered anything like this online, so i'm all ears.

The $200 limit will be before taxes, you should be good to go.
They do have a thread on this forum " Bulk Reef Supply, I'm sure you could verify everything with them there.

thats one of the first places i checked (SWC) heard that they were the canadian distributer of octopus (ie like Coralvue from the US).

Scanning through their site reveals no octo skimmers i can find..so it's time to email :)
