    not to hijack a thread, but has anyone use the AquaC urchin skimmer? im loking at the pro but for you the standard would be perfect(pricewise, simplicity, in sump and quality). do any members have one? i hear its the same as the remora just made for sumps. sounds great! never hear anything about it tho...
