CoralVue prides themselves in quality products that function out of the box. This is the reason for them not utilizing a mesh style impeller. These skimmers will not require tons of up-keep and fiddling to maintain performance because of the use of the Pin wheel. This is most likely the reason skimmer companies like EuroReef, Deltec, Das and H&S have not jumped of the tread wheel bandwagon.

Everyone always complains that these lower cost skimmers have great bodies but crappy pumps. The Octopus Pro Series is the answer we as reef hobbiest have been looking for.
