Have been waiting for this day to come for a few weeks, prop to Ray @ Reef Supplies for getting my new piece of the puzzle in a very short amount of time.

So with that said here it is............my new REEF OCTOPUS PRO SSS-DC3 skimmer..............

Oooo, sexy! Curious what your thoughts are on the internal pump...thinking of eventually upgrading mine and trying to decide on features.

The way they got this beast built I think it will kick ass, impeller has a needle wheel & the whole thing comes apart real easy for cleaning. I should have taken pic of it apart but I was excited to see it assembled.

Found some really neat flexible LED strips at Peavey Mart & thought they would be really cool to shed some light on my sump. Oh ya and I got my top trim cut, painted & installed on top of the tank.

It was there already in the sump, don't know what it was for but when I get the baffles in I will decide if I need to fill it in.
