I am putting together a 140g half round +40g sump and trying to find a good used or new skimmer. I like to stock heavily and don't plan on stonies. Maybe some clams, softies, and anemone's plus fish. So many choices of skimmers. Obviously if one comes up used and it will work well I will get it. If I do end up buying new what recommendations do you have. I have found a few new in the low $300's and I cant spend $500+ new. Reef Octopus, bubble magus nc8 ect, ect.
 
fishaholic911 has one if I am not mistaken check the craigslist posting under reef

I do have an octo 150, it needs a new pump. I was in the process of ordering a new pump from SEA just before I got the new skimmer. Mike gave a price of around 45.00 for a new pump.I am selling the skimmer for 25.00 so for 70.00 you can have a used skimmer with a new pump. I ran this skimmer for almost a year on my 180 with 40 gallon sump and it has a heavy bio load. I will even through a frag in to sweaten the deal :)
