Skimmy? LOL! :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[Skimmy]

just a note, we will have the new ATI bm160's in stock in about 2 weeks from now, along with the newly redesigned bm250's, and in 4 more weeks we will have external bm skimmers, i think just the 250 at first, and the bm 300 will be in stock in roughly 6-8 weeks.
here's pics of the new bm160 and bm250:

Awesome!!!!!!! man those are just about the coolest looking skimmer's I've seen too. neat

 

[Skimmy]

Ed,

They use a Sicci Pump which, rumor has it, is made either by Tunze or by the company that builds pumps for Tunze. They only use 40 watts. Skimmy (Mark) will know which is correct.

Sicci makes pumps for tunze, and ati buys the exact same pump, but they modify it with their threadwheel impellar.

Hey Skimmy, what are the new 160's rated for and what is the price for these new models? Inquiring minds want to know

 

[Ed Hahn]

I have to sell a CS8-2 and RS5-3 before I can get one of these. I am seriously thinking about a new 250. My concern is if it will fit in my sump.

 

[Skimmy]

here's the spec's of the ati bm160;

What is new ?

1. built-in gate valve for fine tuning
2. again more Power (airintake and waterflow)
3. thicker acrylic tubes
4. new neckless insert on the collection cup (clearance only 0,3")

Technical Specifications:

1. Sump space required for the Skimmer only : 7" x 8"
2. Overall Height: 20"
3. Clearing Height: 20.3 "
4. Reaction chamber diameter: 6.6" (instead of 5.9")
5. Neck diameter: 4" (instead of 3")
5. Air intake: 800 lph
6. Waterflow: 1200 lph
7. Pump power consuption: 21 Watt @115/120 VAC 60 Hz

the price is going to be only $30 more than the bm150, but im not sure yet of exact cost...

ed, on the bm250, the foot print is 14.5 x 9.5 by 21" tall

Mark,
How much larger is that compared to my CS8-2?

Mark,
How much larger is that compared to my CS8-2?

the footprint on the cs8-2 is 11 x 13.5 and the footprint on the bm250 is 9.5 x 14.5, only an inch or so difference between the 2 footprints, it should fit fine, and it is shorter than your euro reef.

Is there a recirculating ATI Bubblemaster? Clearance is a issue with my sump.

 

[Skimmy]

in about a month or so we should see the first recirc models coming to the U.S.
keep your fingers crossed...

 

[barrierreefcf]

The ATI's are about to be available again and we have lowered our prices to match internet pricing. No PSAS discounts can be given on top of the new lower pricing. If you are interested please let us know ASAP so we can add one to our order for you.

BM250 749.99
BM200 529.99
New BM160 ??? We don't know yet Between 399.99-449.99.

We have one 250 and one 160 on order but if we know you want an ATI it would be best to add it to our order now before they are all gone at the suppliers!

thanks in advance,
