    Ok, so not your typical "ID This" post! ;D Anyway, was given this skimmer with a tank and want to list on eBay for sale. Problem is, I don't really have a good description. Anyone recognize the emblem and/or design? I think it's 3-4 years old.

    Thanks for any help you can provide!

    Euro-Reef RS-90..... or something close to it

    Definitely a Euro-Reef RS model though.

    What are the dimensions?

    It's 24" tall with the collection cup and appx. 26" circumference. Thanks for the quick reply. Do you know if it has or had a reputation as being either good or bad?

    I have yet to find a bad review on a Euro-Reef skimmer. They are all hand made in the US. Very high quality, and expensive as anything else out there. The company split into two different divisions back in January, but support is still there for all old models.

    I got a limited edition one a while back, and love it.

    What is that in diameter? I'm too lazy to do the math today.

    Diameter appears to be 8". From my google search, maybe a RS-180?

    Either RC-180 or CS-180. Either way, an awesome skimmer.

    Awesome and thanks again for the help! Off to eBay it goes. I will post a link in case someone here wants and will take $20 off whatever final price is if the winner is a 3reefer as of today.

    Don't be, I'm not. It took 6 months of researching skimmers and I ended up with this. I have no regrets.
