I am a poor college kid who is spending too much money on my aquarium and I am now in need of a protein skimmer. What is a good product for the price? I need some suggestions.
 
Helloooooooo people, he says he's a COLLEGE student, he can't afford a G2 or G3, he can probably barely afford macaroni and cheese 4 for a $1!!! Coralife skimmers are decent and I know people will shoot me down for saying this, but I don't think Seaclones are really as horrible as they're made out to be. For the money, they skim, and I have one that produces quite a bit of skimmate every day. I'd check out skimmers on ebay and watch for a deal or on SW forums in their for sale sections, those are usually the best deals. Berlins are good from what I hear and I have a G2, very nice, but too pricey if $$$ is an issue.

I have a skimmer that I did not list for sale. It is for a 120 gallon aquarium. You are more than welcome to use it until you decide what you want to purchase. I'm in no hurry to get it back.
 
Thank you. I would love to borrow the skimmer. I just have spent so much recently on all of this aquarium stuff that I can't afford a very good one and would rather wait or get one that is reasonable in price but works well. Also when do meetings occur? I would really like to join the society. I am going to be near Altoona this weekend and wasn't sure if it would be possible to join up then. When and where do these things usually take place and where do you go to find out?

I've got a custom made (by CPR) super-sized BakPak that I could part with. It's not the one that is the double-barreled one, this is a custom creation that was made for a a reefer in California. If I understand correctly, it's got the skimmer chamber of a DX6 and a corresponding sized body. It's powered by a Rio 1100 (I think), which I bought brand new when I bought it.

Since I've taken my 90 down, I have no use for it. I'm going back to smaller tanks, so it's just taking up space in my basement. Make me an offer I can't refuse.

Might have more stuff to offload in the near future. Time will tell. I'm going to go through all of my boxes and see what turns up.
 
I'm in Nebraska, but have a couple of seaclone skimmers that I'd consider unloading. I can meet in Omaha, but if you're near des moines, it may be better to try and ship.
 
I would be interested in either of the seaclone or the custom built, just private message me so I know how much you would like for them.
