"Orka AVX" New Deltec-Type skimmer???
I can't say I have any experience with this model (I have a Euroreef CS250), but for what you get @ $459 this seems like a hell of a deal; and it intrigues me! They also say it is made here in the U.S.A. Anyone have/seen/heard of this model?

Interesting design. I'm not a big fan of having two 90-degree elbows on the pump outlet. One thing I do like...this has got to be the most compact recirc skimmer I have seen. The extra elbows probably cut down on the pump flow, but it does allow the skimmer to fit in a tight space.

if the copycats would just do something with the Eheim nw pumps, they would have something.
