Need answer about skimmer!

[Pete_the_Puma]

Hi all

So i have just bought a Protein skimmer for my 65g, it's a Euro-Reef CS5-2. The online store just emailed me saying they are out of CS5-2 but can ship me an ES5-2 and a slight refund and that it is basically the same model. Is that true? is the ES and the CS exactly the same skimmer?

Cant find the answer online...

Need an answer fast so i can tell them to ship it.
Thanks

They're a little different in construction quality, IIRC. The ES5-2 is an economy model. www.euro-reef.com will have some answers. If the refund is large enough, the substitution might be okay for you.
