I have INS100 skimmer for sale. This is an in-sump skimmer with feed pump included. I used on my quaranteen tank for a while but don't need now. Reef Dynamics is out of business but these sold for I believe >$3-400 when they were in business, I think over priced at the time. Great condition except for the bottom of the pump, one of the feet extensions broke off but doesn't affect performance at all. Purchase for $200, Sell for $120 OBO. PM me if you want a photo, I will text back to you so include your phone #. Mike 6085129711.

See review from web below:

We wanted to share a couple of videos of the Reef Dynamics INS 100 at work. The first shows the skimmer the day after the user installed it, and the second shows it working after several months. Jeff Macare, owner of Reef Dynamics did instruct the user to lower the bubble level in the neck in order to produce less, but more concentrated, skimmate. There's always a discussion going on between hobbyists who like to skim wet vs. dry. Personally I try to skim dry as to not impact salinity as much. Our system uses a very large skimmer, and a huge skimmer cup, and if we let it fill, we would be draining gallons of saltwater from our system, which would be replaced by our auto top off. That would drop the salinity drastically every week. But I digress.

The INS100 Protein Skimmer from Reef Dynamics can filter up to 300 gallons of total system water volume, but should be used on medium bio-load reef systems of 100 gallons, or a heavily stocked 80 gallon system. Here are some specs:
