    So I bought the Reef Octopus XP1000SSS from BRS for $349 back in Nov (wasn't on sale) but noticed now the price is $420. Looks like other vendors have also raised the price. I haven't set it up yet, but I'm wondering if there's something different with the product now? The specs look the same as when I bought it. Does anybody know if they changed something on it?

    I too have that skimmer as far as I know they just raise their price. Don't think they change anything.

    Fuel costs and taxes increased the unit price.
