[demandrid]

howdy im looking at getting a new skimmer and sump (will be going on a 120 gal tank, this is what im looking at at http://www.superskimmer.com/ETSS_Combos.htm ETSS 800XR Skimmer and UHF 72 Pro Sump any thoughts on this setup ?

Looks like a first rate system, but seems like alot of money.
I'd think you could do better buying a skimmer and sump separately.

Plus I looked again and you will have to spend more $ for pumps.

thanks finn ..any thoughts on the skimmer itself ?

I was going to suggest the MSX Extreme skimmers, but they are hard to find.

The DAS skimmers are suppose to be pretty good.

Very good skimmer, but they are expensive.
I have the BM 250.

may as well lay down the cash for a good one now so i wont have to worry bout it when i get the new tank
