    It's a HOB. They're decent, I've been using one since I started my tank. I presume the PH is in addition to the picture, and not being sold instead of the needle wheel pump shown here?

    Yes, I'll be getting the pump shown and a koralia power head is that right? It's for 100 is that a decent price? Are they loud?

    I can't even hear mine. The power head has nothing to do with the skimmer then, FYI. 100 is probably fair.

    How weird is that! I just picked up one of these from a good friend of mine who had it in a pile of rubbish. I don't have the pump tho. I'm anxious to see how it works for you. I still have to try to find a used pump on ebay or something.;)
