[victor626nj]

wow bryan you read my mind perfectly but i want to here what other people have to say about it i have been looking at this skimmer back and forth all day man great minds think alikelol

If you really want a good skimmer. i would save up some more. that PCS1000 is a little week and small for a 90 SPS tank IMO. But it will work but i think 56 months or a year from now you'll be looking for a better skimmer.

You can always modify it to perform better than stock with a mesh mod. So maybe that will be good enough.

Everybody has their favorite skimmer and alot of them are good. If you like that brand go with the PCS 2000 i think youll be happier

 

[ouling]

The biggest one for your budget.

56 months or a year You may need a newskimmer in 2008 or sometime in 2012.

Know it was a typo but made me chuckle.

The Octopus NW200 if you have room in your sump is a great bang for buck skimmer. http://www.marinesolutionsinc.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=22_35&products_id=48">http://www.marinesolutionsinc.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=22_35&products_id=48</a>. You could get by with the NW150, but I would move up.

An out of sump recirc that is small and pulls a lot of air is the DAS EX1 [IMG]http://www.protein-skimmer.com/shopping.asp?id=446996&itemid=6663&ct=1&shopperid=51134&merchantid=446996&shop=itemdetail.asp">http://www.protein-skimmer.com/shopping.asp?id=446996&itemid=6663&ct=1&shopperid=51134&merchantid=446996&shop=itemdetail.asp</a>

Slightly cheaper but will work great as well [IMG]http://www.reefnut.com/reefshop/product_info.php?cPath=47&products_id=113">http://www.reefnut.com/reefshop/product_info.php?cPath=47&products_id=113</a>

These are some good value for the dollar skimmers

[roland jacques]

Got to tell you the NW-200 does heat your water, so keep that in mind. Those OTP pumps just put out some heat.

 

[victor626nj]

can you pm me some pics...and cameron explain here lol what kind is it

 

[cameron]

That skimmer makes the rounds... I got it from Big D. Here is the original post:

Basically a dual venturi... a bit noisy, but gets the job done.

 

[victor626nj]

dam you guys are fast im kind of looking for mor of a plug and play i dont want to have to go buy a pump for it but thanks for the offer

 

[xyzpdq0121]

LOL, I remember that skimmer, I almost bought it!

I am so excited, my new skimmers come tomorrow! I can not wait to see how they perform!

 

[cameron]

It really is a good value. I think maybe if you slapped $300 on it and included a pump people would think it is better and buy it. Sometimes I think people need to believe a skimmer must be expensive to be good.

Ain't that the truth. I think the best deal is what you sold that shorty for Cam. Nice skimmer at an awsome price. Aww the good old days of Cameron's fish emporium!

what you getting

 

[cameron]

Top secret... my rep is on the line with this one. The ones he has are really too small for a 90g.
