Do they have a pump hooked up to the cup overflow?

And bio-balls in the cup?!?

what size tank are you putting it on?

for that price you could get a new ASM or CSS

well ya like i said the first images wasnt that good. and the inlet was just out of view. but as for the bio-balls i dont think they belong. but for the most part its a good skimmer. i see that one sold for around 150 or so.

For just a little more than that (currently $198), you can get a great new Euro-Reef skimmer from somewhere like Marine Depot.

the tank I am looking to put this on is a 135g tank.

i would get something a little bigger then that for a 135g. it says it rated for a 150g tank but i always cut the rating in half.

Ooops... Although the Euro-Reef skimmers are reputed to be underated in their actual capacity, I think that might be pushing it a little. Sadly, the larger models haven't been equally discounted.
