Best skimmer for the buck?

We are looking for a reasonably priced quality skimmer line to carry in our lfs. Any reccomendations? We need someone who has good customer support and a good supply of replacement parts. Thanks!

Eshopps skimmers seem as though they are priced well below many competing brands. I would check them out.

I am using an Aqua Euro skimmer. I love it. The body alone is worth what I paid for it.

Reef octopus has a huge line of skimmers at a good and varying price point and build a quality product with a great warranty, especially the super reef line.
