Hey all,

Well I've been shopping for a Euro reef skimmer, but they are having problems filling demand so I won't be able to get one for a couple of months. I'm looking for something to replace my CPR SR2, something that is rated for a 75 gallon tank and will work in the sump.

Any thoughs?

Thanks, Al

ASM skimmers are made by the same company just are extruded instead of cast. They have one in PA but I am sure you could find one online as well. You could always try a turbofloter as well.

good luck

The aqua C urchin is the Remora Pro model but modified for in sump use. Throw a Mag5 or similar on that and you should be set to go.

I love my remora pro, but am a bit disappointed the mag3 takes up so much room in my tank. Guess I need a sump...

I bought an ASM skimmer thats rated for a 100 gallon tank. It took a couple days to break in, but looks like it will work great.

Thanks, Al

I got it from Global Aquarium Supply, www.globeaqua.com. It was the best deal I found. I got the G-1, which is just over $200.
