ATB Econo Cone
Octopus 160 or 200
Warner Marine AS-150

Which one would you go with?

Thats a pretty decent range when it comes to price...What price range are you wanting to stay in?? What footprint do you need?

There are ton of great skimmers out there just need a bit more info...

ATB Econo Cone for sure!

I am going through the same thing. I am going to order the AS 150.

i vote atb if u got the cash but if not the octo x 200

CASH

CASH

I know it's a greate range. The ATB I can get for $650. I don't want to fork out $900 for a Bubble King. The others are all under $500.

If I had my choice I would like to stay around $400. But if the ATB is worth it, I'll spring.

I have an msx 160 on my 90 and it does a great job. I think it might be similar to the octo 160.

Check out the ATB forum it's like an orgy of happy customers in there.

Plus Victor(atb USA) is based is Cali, so parts will come faster than any other company if you ever need anything.

HEAVY fish load with 20 plus colonies of SPS and mixed reef. Euroreef RS 135. If you do the same feeding, water changes, etc. You can tell how your tank is becase it will make the same amount of skimmate every time!

It's $328 to your door brand new from most vendors or them!

wow,

your skimmer budget is nuts. look at a bubble magus. they are nice, and you have enough left over to buy some new corals.

screw paying 650 for a skimmer for a 90G. thats insane.

280 bux, your good to go.

if he has the cash to drop on the atb, do it. i usually recommend the msx/octopus 200, but with that list the cone is the way to go. there really is no comparison, but it is also double the price. the custom volutes atb does are super nice, you cant go wrong!
