Question Octopus Protein Skimmers

Can anyone tell me where in Canada I can buy an Octopus protein skimmer ?

Does anyone have experience with one of these ?

How would you rate it, if you have one ?

Not sure if I'm allowed to link to non-sponsors but how about Reef Perfection or Reef Solution.

I have one, bought it second hand and I love it. Its been very good to me since I picked it up. I would rate it 7 or 8 out of 10.

I am also in the market for a new skimmer for my new sump. I currently have a Sea Clone, which apparently is a pos. I really wish I would have done more homework when I got into this, but that's ancient history.

My sump will be approx. 55 gallons, measuring 36" x 18" x 20", and the display is 46 gallons. The Octopus looks like it would work, but what else in that price range would do the trick?
