That seller has good ratings. You would probably be safe buying from them.

Looks like a CPR aquafuge knock off. You might be supporting patent infringement. Or it could be a factory second.

Your right. I wonder how well that skimmer would work. I like the bakpak design skimmers.

Be careful, make sure its not a 'kit' that needs to be assembled. Might wanna find out before buying it, unless you dont mind having to put it together.

Let me echo Jim's comments. Many of the acrylic goods on ebay are kits and you have to build them. There was a posting on here sometime in the past where one of the members unsuspectingly purchased one of them. It does say in the auction "picture for demonstration only".

Not a prob with that refractometer, nor with the seller greatdel. I have the same refractometer (but paid more than 8 bucks for it) and it works just fine. I have bought bulbs from greatdel, and he is a reputable seller, shipping just takes awhile....
