If they are anything like their nano skimmer, then they are junk. (I had a fission nano skimmer, and it was a complete waste of $40)

Yes, the nano fission was pretty bad. Id like to hear some reviews on these, they look pretty good. I love my Current USA Sunpod, so hopefully the skimmers are of the same quality.

I looked at those the other day also. My biggest question on any of these is usally about the pump being used. I guess I'm biased to the oceanrunner and sedra needle wheel pumps. You put either of those on that and I'm sure it would be no different than a euroreef, asm, turbofloater etc.

You still have that? I remember you posting when you had only had it a few days. We have all bought some piece of equipment like that haven't we?

Umm, it might have a useful (1 time only though) purpose as a tire stop/chuck :D Although, it would be more fun to chuck it at a road sign as your doing 70mph down 281 <_<

Oh, BTW, I have a Prizm skimmer I want to get rid of. Its too awkward to throw at a road sign though...

Not looking for a skimmer. Just came across them last night on Current's website.
