Default Eshopps skimmers

Cracked my euroreef so I have been looking at new skimmers and my lfs brought some eshopps in. They look decent and they are in my budget at the moment. Anyone have one? Are you happy with it? any feedback would be great!

Cheers
Ray

Do you find the pump a little loud?

not really, if you don't use the supplied air filter its noisy but once you put that on the incoming air line it got nice and quiet. i have mine in my living room and the other half doesn't complain. ( and she's just looking to pick apart my purchases!!lol)

What size is yours? im looking at the 150. I think it should do the job on my 120gal. Also if you dont mind me asking how much did you pay for yours?

cheers

i've got the 150 as well on my 92 and it seems to perform pretty good. I got mine for just under $200.
