Which Bubble King?

Hi all,

I want a new skimmer for my tank, and are going all out on a Bubble King.
But which one:
- Double Cone 250
- Supermarin 250

???

My tank is 1000 litres, SPS dominated.

Thanks,
Ken.

Ok, so the Supermarin seems to be a great choice here.

But, isn't it any in here that owns a Double cone and would like to share their experiences?

I ask because a Supermarin 250 costs 300 bucks more than a Double Cone 250.

it's very hard to find those double cone... this market niche in US has been filled by BBK's deluxe, supermarin... alpha vertex, reef octopus and the customers aren't motivated to migrate to double cone approach.

i just found one or other guy here at RC who imported themselves those double cones. but if you live in Norway this is not a problem for you, right?
