New skimmer pics

[_Sooner_2]

Thought I would post some pics of my new H&S skimmer. I went with a recirculating model this time. First, I'll post a couple of pics of my Euroreef for comparison.

I want to send out a big thank you to Ed @ KM Associates in CA. He was super friendly and a great help. If you ever buy from him, be sure to tell him you are a Reef Central member. He has a special arrangement for RC members. You can find him in the sponsers forum; H&S/Fins Reef section. His info is inside a thread listing authorized retailers of H&S products.

Ronnie,

If you would, post a pic of a weeks worth of running. If it fills before that, post the shot and let me know how many days worth. I can't make up my mind between Deltec or H&S for the 300g.

Thanks,
Jeff

Jeff,

I'll try to remember to do that. I'm not sure how long the break in period will be. But, I'm already getting skimmate in the cup.

In regards to Deltec vs H&S, I think you would be happy with either. I've read that the recirculating ER's are very good too. I went with the H&S after researching a bit. All three seemed to be good performance wise. But the H&S was actually less than the other two. You might also check out the GEO line. I've read good things about them also, and I like the quality of my GEO reactor.

If you go with Deltec or H&S, get with Ed at KM, he sells both lines. He carries the new ATI's as well.

What dealer is this? I've been looking for more information on the H&S and the ATI skimmers.

Here is a link to KM Associates Int'l. He is in San Francisco. Ed is the owner...nice fella. He was a big help in picking out the right skimmer for my set up.
