Do you know what the energy draw on these is? How would you say they compare to the ATI BM 250 or the Reeflo 200?

65 watts is the draw. All I know about those skimmers is what I've read. For that matter, since I haven't used the H&S I can't really speak for it either. It is as well built as I have read here though. You'd have a hard time finding a bad review of these skimmers. Because I'm going to have more water volume than I thought initially I went with the Reeflow 250. I can vouch for that skimmer...It rocks!
Thanks Jeff.

single Eheim 1260

if it were two eheims it would be 200-2x1260
aquabee versions are like this: 200-f2001

Since there's an A before the numbers, that means it's the external version.

I used to have the 200-3xf2001. It was a great skimmer and was built like a tank. I switched to the reeflo 250 like makdoogle and it rocks just like he says.

I have 2 H&S Skimmers myself and they are awesome! I started with the A250-2x1260 and just purchased the 200-1260 for my other system. Bump for a great skimmer!
