Nope just ran into that today.

Sicce pump improved plumbing and such it looks like they worked out most of the things people were moding.

Those are going to be beasty right of of the box.

Wow, those do look great. My current 3 pump Octo is a nice skimmer, but I always wished they had done the pumps differently. It looks like these new ones might be exactly what a lot of people are looking for.

Sweet lookin skimmer. I love my Octo, but screws off that big collection cup is sometimes a royal pita. Looks like great improvements on a very nice product!

I always preferred the big sch 80 union over the twist lock flanges. It's damn near impossible to break one of them.
