So who's got one of these pre-ordered? I've been seriuosly considering jumping on the $200 off deal.
 
Dien works at Mid Cities, one of our sponsors.
 
Guess so many people come over for frags that you can't remember the little buyers. Yea same price. They have a smaller model coming too. said:
I remember you, just don't expect me to remember what everyone does for a living :lol:.

Dave I think it said up to 300 gal, I could be wrong. Definitely should pull my 200 with ease.

I checked a few other cones, ATB model sells for a grand, even I-Tech quoted 750 for theirs. I think with the reputation "Bubbly King" has, this one is a winner.

Here's the thread on RC about them:

I think some lucky guy on our board might have swung the first air shipment, everyone else must get in line. :cry:
 
It's now in my possession :twisted: , I don't how well it will perform, but it certainly is a pleasure to look at it sitting there. This thing is a beauty, almost seems like a waste to collect all that nasty skimmate into this shiny white container... maybe i'll just let it sit there for a while...

This thing is massive, not sure about the dimensions, it's 24" tall, but the body is wide.

Considering all of the other choices and price tags on similar design skimmers, a grand they are asking for such a quality brand and design is really not that bad.

I'm going run this thing parallel to my ER to see how the results compare this weekend.

Not much to a skimmer. Why the $1000 price tag? said:
Take a second look at what's in his tank and how it looks. That pricetag gives you very efficient nutrient export, it will literally pull a turd right out of the fish's butt. :lol:

Cheers,
