No problem...The Deltec and H&S are definately top notch and definately lead in the industry IMO but I think that if you could accomplish a skimmer that equalled the performance of a larger Deltec model for much less than the price of the smallest Deltec available, I say go for it

I'm not saying it could be matched but at some point you get diminished returns. I just can't justify or afford spending that type of money for a skimmer (deltec-H&S)

Don't overthink this. Get a good quality build that won't break on you or get brittle if you run ozone or even just over time. Heck, you can have 0 nitrates with an airstone skimmer.

Well than, Seaclone it is. :lol:

 

[DrBDC]

Well, ok there are some,,,,,,

Roy- Can I buy your 46 ft. skimmer?

 

[DrBDC]

:lol: You can have it. You'll need about $120 linear piston air pump and a mag 3!

i understand you dont want to spend the extra money on the h&s and or deltec


the h&s will spank the deltec you are looking at
aquabee 2000 vs the aquabee 2001


if i bought a euro-reef i would get one with the ehiem

Watch the foot print on the ASM's If you are wanting the it hooked up as a recirc Mod it too will be larger than what the foot print says. I will not get another skimmer with out the Recirc mod. I need to Mod my G5 bad.

My vote would have to be for the Octopus Recirc Needlewheel

 

[Reggae Fish]

I don't have the room for the octopus recirc

 

[Im Lon 2]

Is it that much bigger than a G4? I don't remember how you plan on setting this up, why is it you don't have room?

 

[Reggae Fish]

The G4 Plus is 11.5x16

The Octopus Recirc 200 is 9x21

The sump is 36" long and will have the skimmer area, fuge, return area

H&S i love mine
