Coralife Super Skimmer Model 60for $50? yay or nay

I am shopping for a skimmer and come accross this. Anyone with experience with them? Is that a fair price?

 

i would say go for it, i have a 65 on my 29g, i have to empty the collection cup once a week and i have a very low bioload. they are great skimmers

 

Thanks for the input! This is going on a 65g, do you think it will be enough, atleast to hold me over for a while. Money is tight and this sounded like a good deal. Here is the post:

 

i got the same deal on ebay paid 50 for my coralife 65. i like the skimmer they work good and QUIET! only thing is the microbubbles never stop and the diffuser doesnt work very well.

 

If money is tight then that is fair but if you can wait on a skimmer I would not spend $50 on a used Coralife. There are not the best value even at $110 at my LFS. I would save another $75 and look into reef octopus. I passed on a coralife 65 and a cpr bak pak both for $100 off advice from somone on this forum and I am glad I took the advice.

 

I got my Coralife 65 for $30, and I've been very happy with it. I would probably pay the extra $20 for it.

 

I would like to go with a reef octopus but can not find a 110 for under $170. What skimmer were you mentioning for $110?

 

I would atleast see if he is willing to take an offer. maybe $30-$40

 

Great skimmer, I run it on my 46g, and I run the 220g model on my 120g. Works like a charm for the price paid.

 

I'm not a fan of coralife skimmer and would not spend $50. Save money and get aquac remora if you are looking for HOB skimmer.
