Skimmer debate MSX200 OR OPE-200

I can not tell the difference in these two skimmers, besides the stickers. So I am asking all of you skimmers guru's which is better. Or is there even a difference?

Exact same skimmers with different stickers. They're great skimmers and you can't go wrong with either.

Like Clevengergl mentioned they are the same skimmer distibuted by two different companies. Except the Octo Extremes are coming with a mesh wheel and a flexible NW. The Octos Extremes are also cheaper and Reef Specialty is offering Free shippingtoo.

I have seen a lot of your posts in one of the skimmer threads. I was hoping you would reply. Which one do you have? Never mind I just looked up at your equipment. Is yours the pin wheel or mesh?

If I had room in my sump I would have to try octo extreme out for kicks. I am currently testing out a Reef Specialty prototype NW on the Reeflo.
