    I have no experience but I feel very wary from looking at page. I really think you going to get what you paid for.

    Look into and Eshopps PSK-150 or PSK-200. Good price on a good skimmer IME.

    I second the Eshopps. I recently got a PSK-75 for a 30gl I set up. I am happy with it's production thus far.

    I had one, worked well for the few months I used it pulled out dark skimate, I just didn't trust it to leave it working when I wasn't home, b

    If you can afford better I would get better but it is worth a temp skimmer IMHO.
