Tired of messing with junk...

clutch · 04/13/2006, 10:47 AM

So i've tried all kinds of junky skimmers. Spent tons of cash now looking to do the right move. I'm looking for suggestion on a good skimmers that can house my tank. I have about 350 gals total system. I was looking at Deltec, ER,Geo needle,Bubble king but so undecided. This have to be able to handle the works. I'm going to go with 2 skimmers. The one i use now is a berlin type skimmers(needle wheel 20 ".

The reason for a bigger skimmer 250 gal+ is that in a year or two i'm building a house and the 400 gal is in the making.

I think I should talk to Doug(deltec)

plz help
