Help me replace my skimmer

check out the new line of super reef skimmers by octo.... they all look great...

i have read some good reviews on the super reef 5000. I think it was the external one that was getting tons of praise on rc

 

Thanks Im going to end up going with the 5000 ;D

 

sweet.... external?

 

No internal space save model

 

good choice no matter what route you went....

I was looking at this skimmer for some time before I gont my XP
Reef Octopus Super Reef 2000 Internal Skimmer

 

Vertex and SWC are prob the best bang for your buck.

 

SWC looks good but I would probably have to respectfully disagree on the Vertex - unless you are referring to the IN series by Vertex / Royal Exlusiv. The Octopus is much cheaper and after reading reviews and researching them myself, I found the Vertex Alpha cones to be more expensive for the same performance as the Octopus, or I-Tech, or Warner Marine skimmers. Making the Octopus XP's the better bang for your buck.
