    Well, i am still not sure, how did you like it, i know it cant compare to a $300+ skimmer, but will it skim good? i dont plan on overloading my 90gl, i want to stick with small fish at first, once i get the water thing down, i want to start adding soft coral, little by little.
    PM more details, were in Miami are you?

    Thanks

    Yes, walking distance from Exotic, been going there since 87'. Its a Pro Clear Aquatic System skimmer 150 and comes with a CA 2200 pump( with instructions). The skimmer is still in use until I change out my sump. Im having a custom wet dry/ sump/ refugium tank build by Exotic, so when I change them out and install the new skimmer, I can sell this one to you. I paid $200.00 for it, so Im think of $100.00. Let me know. Luna
