Quick Skimmer Poll...

If you had a choice, what skimmer would you get? Looking for an in-sump needle wheel for sure. Around $200-$250....

Thanks!

I currently have an ASM, but if I had the financial means, I would get an ER or Deltec.

I would keep checking the for sale section here on RC and see what popped up! You might be able to score a nice skimmer from someone in a financial crisis!
