Default Decided on swc 160 or did I?

So decided on what skimmer to finally go with. Now to find one went through all the sponsor sites and didn't notice anyone carrying them anyone know where I can find one.

I just bought one today at Big Als in Edmonton. Its in the sump breaking in right now, so far I love it. It is really quiet!
Before I found out Big Als had them I was going to order it direct from Saltwater Connections website.

A SWC Xtreme 160 cone, thought that is what you were referring to in the title "swc 160".
Paid a little more than buying direct but worth it because I was able to see a demo unit in person before I bought it.
I think it is against site rules to actually post the price.

Default Thanks some more

I assume that this is a good skimmer, no one has tried to talk me out of it yet. Any opinions?

Thumbs up

I have had great luck with the swc cone 160. Very quiet, small footprint, easy to clean, pulls the gunk out of my tank very efficiently. No regrets buying it.
