Looking at possible Upgrading my skimmer.
I currently have a euro-reef in sump skimmer that is working great but it's a pain to get in and out of my sump, so I found somehting that should perform as well but give me a bit more room.
The model I have is a RS100 Currently on my 75 Heavy Stocked tank and doing wonderful.
Just checking if there is an interest there, probably looking at getting around $175-$200 for it. Comparible Euroreef model would be $350-400
Let me know with a PM, Thanks

Ok just to make sure to clear things up I couldn't for the life of me remeber the exact model I had and wanted to make sure. so.......
I have the Euro Reef RS100 (which can easily handle up to 100 gallon Tank from what I have read. Here are some specs
They Also seem to sell for $300-$350 new so I will take $175 OBO Works 100% like new, just moving to someting with a smaller footprint to make cleaning easier, otherwise wouldn't be selling.
Also PuffLuv has first dibs on it, from there I will go in order of PM's recieved.
Not sure why I thought the 135 or bigger but none the less wanted to get that cleared up sooner than later....
