skimmer recomendations

[reefer_for_life]

im going to add a sump to my tank (65 gallon ) and am looking to get an insump skimmer, and sell my remora pro. i was looking at this one: http://www.premiumaquatics.com/Merc...n=PROD&Product_Code=EURO-CS080&Category_Code=

does anyone have any experience with this skimmer? i dont mind spending the money on a good skimmer, but if there's one just as good for cheaper, please let me know. thanks.

I do not have a Euro-Reef but they are good skimmers. I have an ASM, its a knock off of the Euro-Reef. It does a great job.

I think the ASM is a cheaper version of the ER, I also have one and would recommend it.

You could always get a coral life super skimmer 125 they are the best skimmer for the price hands down my 65 is on its 3ed cup and the stuff its pulling out is amazing.

The CL Superskimmer is a good skimmer for the price but it does not compare to an ASM or ER in my opinion.

What does LOL.

The CL is a great skimmer for the price, if a model 125 can run my system I can't imagine what a larger unit would do. Personally if you have the funds go with the ASM but if you want a great skimmer that cant be beat for a lower cost go with the CL, a 125 on your tank would yield incredible results IMO, I don't think you would be sorry.

thanks for all the opinions. i found ASM skimmers at premium aqautics and this was the smallest one they had:

its $40 more than the euroreef, i thought they were cheaper. am i missing something here?

just found this one at the bottom of the page:

http://www.premiumaquatics.com/Merc...PROD&Product_Code=ASM-GMINI&Category_Code=ASM

anyone know what size tank this skimmer is rated for?

WOW great price for that Euro-reef. :eek1:
I always recommend ASM as a cheaper alternative to ER but on sale with free shipping it's got ASM beat on price.

Here I have some proof that you get what you pay for is not true all the time most of the time but not every time. I can't think what the 125 would be like!!!
Coral life SS 65
First cup

Second cup

And the cup i just emptyed yesterday

Take a look under the 125 display the next time your in Nate it will give you a good idea of what a 125 does.

Euroreef makes a very good skimmer. Here is a shot of what my old one would pull. This was the cs6-1 so it was slightly larger then the one linked. For 200$ i would go with the euroreef from premium.
