Ive owned 2 BM's and have never had a problem in 6 months. I had the NAC7 which had the atman pump which did a great job and now I run the 180CS with the aquabee pump which is a workhorse. So far so good! some BM's come with ehiem pump which are also known to be reliable and efficent. IMO most of the BM pumps are better than the sedra pumps on most euroreef's. Either way you cant really go wrong:biggrin:

I've got the BMQQ model and have been running it about a month and a half. The quality of the construction is very good but any documentation you might get with it is almost useless (Chinglish).

If you can get a good price on a BM that has the specs you need, I wouldn't hesitate. When I go to a bigger tank, a BM will be my first option.....

I have ordered from these guys. They are excellent to deal with and the shipping is surprisingly fast. I ordered my BM containers for two part dosing and I had them in about a week.

Why would you wanna get rid of your ER?......probably one of the least sold and sought after used skimmers out there:wink:....

I like euroreef.. however the one i have is rated much lower than my tank and its bioload... i wouldnt mind upgrading to another euroreef, but im trying to cut down cost...

Kevotron - I have a BM200P and I love it. I found the overall quality very good and once I got it dialed in it is quiet and produces consistent skimate.
