I have been looking for more things needed and I am considering a Euroreef RS80 that has been offered to me by Kevotron. It seems like a good skimmer (considering the only skimmer I have experience with is a Rio Nano) based on what I have read.
Ive read about peeps painting the back white.......it supposed to really make the corals stand out and is also reflective......I thought about trying it on my next project.....

you cant go wrong with a Euro-reef
