Default NEW SWC Extreme 160 Cone review

I Should be getting my new skimmer next week, and I will be doing a full review of it on here.

The one I have chosen is the new Xtreme 160 Cone from Salt Water Connection

I was really torn weather to just stick with what I have, which is a trusty EuroReef RS100, which has always worked awsome, and still does, my only complaint with it is more to do with my set up than the skimmer itself.

With the way my sump is under my stand and the comaprtment the skimmer it is in (and it's larger footprint) it makes it a pain taking it out to clean every 6 months or so when it needs a thourough cleaning.

So it's time to clean the skimmer again which got me thinking about some of the new ones with smaller footprints and the 'internal" type pump design. This should be much easier to put in and out of the sump and the performance is suppose to be great.

And for the great price Jayson has them at, I figured it couldn't hurt to try. He's also a Canadian Company which is also a big plus for me, being a business owner myself.

Skimmer should be here early next week so i will keep you posted with more pictures and a review to follow....
