    i agree that it takes alittle to get it adjusted right, but once adjusted it great. I have one and my friend has one. They work really well, constantly pulling out crap. I know someone else with a cpr and it doesnt seem to do as well as the coralife.

    I have the smaller coralife on my nano, and I think it works great. Like already said, it did take a while to get adjusted to where it is now, but I would def. recommend it.

    I have the same skimmer that you are looking at and for only $125 bucks brand new from lfs I thought I would give it a try. Its not the best but its not the worst. I did a few minor mods that seem to help with the function. I dont ever need to adjust mine. It has ran good for 2 years now and although I am planning to upgrade in the near future it is still a decent skimmer for the price. I think some of those that bash the CSS skimmers are those that never had one.
