I just ordered one of their Ca reactors. They have awesome craftsmanship from what I've been told and their skimmers are very nice also. I just don't like the idea of the pressure rated pump, unless it is setup remotely. Plus I think I would have had a hard time cleaning the thing
Pressure rated is no biggie, usually just a less agressive pitch on the impeller than one rated for max flow. Generally takes me 10 minutes to clean it.... I had a bird on my shoulder and cleaned it in about 8mins tonight... but I still hate the thumbscrews, just something else to lose
The new design negates that argument though.
- A wookie is nothing more than three ewoks duct taped together.
You wil be VERY happy with it! My old skimmer would've taken a month to remove the same amount of waste this thing removes a day! It has a monster collection cup that I empty daily. I do have it running very wet because I have a small algae bloom. Two thumbs way up. Best thing I've spent my money on so far.
