skimmer upgrade
i'm posting this cuz many of you are much more up to speed on the which are the top end skimmers that give best bang for the buck. i'll be replacing my turboflotor1000 with something in the range of the PM Bullet3. i'm not familiar with some of the newer models by other manufacturers...so feedback would be appreciated.
shane who really does exist! |

oh cmon i know y'all got opinions...i don't bite. not enough info, ok for those who don't know me, or have tried to forget me - HA! nice try brad you're busted!! - the main tank is a mod loaded mixed reef 135 with ~80g in two reverse lit sumps.
mostly looking for who is using what and their feedback on how well suited it is ie is it overrated, does it kick a$$, is there a better one for more or less money. ok post up shy people, then i'll disappear into the realm of lurkdom for another couple of months! shane |

Take a look at the Aerofoamer line of skimmers. They are alittle pricey,but,I have only heard good things about them.
The next skimmer I build myself will be based on that design. |

Dale, I'm also building one of those right now using 8" tube. I think Stephane makes DIY versions for sale if Shane wanted to go that way.
