Octopus Extreme TS-150 Protein Skimmer---1 week old
 

I bought this a week ago, and to check them out and have been quite impressed. It however isn't what I need for my new tank set-up, however it is one heck of a good skimmer.

I have had it up on my frag tank, and IMO it is better than any ASM I have ever owned.

Anyway, I am looking to get $200 OBO shipped to your door, I still have the original packaging.

i am very interested what is the lowest that you will take?

Lowballer!

how tall is it?

IN-Sump only

20" Tall
Footprint: 7 1/2" x 12"
Max Tank Size: 200 Gallon

Looks kinda of weird. How does the collection cup come off? Where did this come from?

It just comes off here is a picture off it the bottom piece is actually part of the skimmer, I really like the design, catches additional waste.

Sorry, it is the new line of Octopus skimmers new for 2008.

What pump is that?? Can you provide a link for us please??

Premium Aquatics sells them. Look under Octopus skimmers.

Thats where I got it was Premium Aquatics, its listed on their site.

All PMs responded to.

is that a eheim pump ?

No its an Octo 2000, standard Octopus pump w/ needlewheel

does it produces microbubbles into the tank?

No, it doesn't.

I was worried about that when i saw the design originally, but it doesn't at all.

Are you sure that's not the PS-150? There's a price difference between the two.

Paid $210 for it last week, so if you can get it for $185, I'd say buy it.

I will take $190 shipped for it.

SOLD

I missed another deal.

I understand this one is sold, but what makes this one better than the old NW-200?? I am going to be buying one and I am not sure which to buy. Thanks for your help.

I think it becasue they eliminated the elbow with restricted the flow greatly, and added the bubble-plate to reduce turbulence.

I think that is the major advantage of these. They are really powerful little skimmer.

Thanks...much appreciated!
