Deltec Turbo 1060 or 1250 Skimmer

[meitzler]

Does anyone have experience with either of these Deltec skimmers. They are so much smaller than the Euroreef or ASM. I am consider selling my new ASM G4 because it is too large for the space in my sump. Before I do something stupid, I want to hear from someone who has experience with either the 1060 or 1250. Also, does anyone in the NW sell them.

Here's a bump for you....I don't have experience with Deltec Skimmers.

Here's a list of their Dealers. You could also put up a post to Doug in the Deltec sponsor forum here, where you might be able to get one.

Meitzler I run the Deltec 1060 in sump skimmer and have had euro reefs. The Deltec is in my opion by far the best. I cannot believe how much it skims, but you pay for it, but well worth it if you have the money.

I don't think you'll regret the Deltec.

Is the Deltec 1060 more quiet than the equivalent euroreefs or ASM G4. I have a G4 and it seems a little noisy. Also, I noticed that the 1060s requires less power than the 1060 which doesn't seem logical. fishermann, how long have you had yours and did you buy from a local dealer or the US distributor.

i don't think you are going to find a local dealer in Washington state. i had to go through the US Distributor to get my APF600.
