5 Easy, Efficient and Very Reliable
|
11/01/2009 - by Jon R from Pittsburgh, PA US

I too replaced a Euro-Reef and a ASM G2 with this skimmer. Much more reliable than the ASM, always making large amounts of dark skimmate from my 180g. Tons of tiny bubbles! The larger 250 with 2 Sicce's could of come in handy, but that's what the spare Euro-Reef is for now! The collection cup is hard to pull off and the impeller is next to impossible to remove. I have broken the tabs on its housing so I can no longer get the impeller out to clean or change it to and from the softer purple pinwheel. Well worth the cost, which is much less than numerous other, more expensive, yet equal skimmers out there these days.
