[FSU]

Deciding between 2 skimmers which are the Octopus Extreme 150 or Euroreef's RS100. It will be used for my 75g. Any input?

definitely go with the deltec :D

of those two with the price difference being what it is, no question the euroreef

[LoneStar]

Of those 2, the Euroreef would be a better buy.

[Ed]

I agree. Euroreef.

[tony]

if you do decide to save a buck, the asm is supposed to be the next best thing and a little cheaper than the euroreef

cliff (brewercm) has one and loves his and ive heard a few other favorable reviews as well

[sharkboy]

euroreef is my vote

[apedroza]

Euroreef!!!

MSX Skimmers, powered by Sicce Pumps same pump as ATI Bubblemaster Very nice skimmer http://www.marinesolutionsinc.com/catalog/Protein-Skimmers-Xtreme-Skimmers---Coming-Soon!/c22_48/index.html

Euroreef gets my vote. Not just because they work well either. I've heard stories about the customer service at ER being jaw droppingly efficient and pleasant to deal with. You'll be dealing with a US company that hand builds their product right here in the US. Not to go pounding the Buy USA thing, but that they are right here in the flesh and blood if any problems or questions ever arise.

I will admit that in the last couple of months some real contenders have hit our shores. It's hard to deny the fact that Octopus skimmers work and that MSX is a very nice unit for the money.

Ok cool, thx all for the replies! I will be picking up the Euroreef RS100 this weekend! Thx again!

I have met the Euro-reef guy a couple of times and he is super nice, I have also heard about their excellent customer service.

bubblemaster 200......:ph34r:

is that not an option????????? then go with the euroreef. You should have known that anyway Rick.

[brewercm]

I really like the ASM like Tony stated. Looks like the price of that ER is basically same as the price for the equivelant ASM so I'd go with it also.

[FSU]

Just picked up my Euroreef RS100. I got it all hooked up. So far so good!

[SoLiD]

What, No one knows anything about D.A.S. skimmers? They are Deltec Clones with half the pricetag.

[mikedelgado]

MY das ex3 kicks butt

[SoLiD]

[jrsatx20]

Our octopus works great, no complaints! Kristy says, "I feed too heavily" (I do), and we get almost a cup full a day of skimmit (Is that a word? :))
