Anyone who attended MACNA have any info on the new Reef Octopus sumps? I saw a model of OS-15a.
 
I have one of the new Essence s-130 skimmers and it's an absolute beast. I love it's small footprint, quiet and powerfull pump. And it is a snap to tear down and clean, then setting it back to where I had it is a breeze with the click number dial. It does produce some micro bubbles, but a decent bubble trap with a foam block before the pump takes care of that.

I see I said Skimmers in the title but meant sumps. Just got the essence myself, absolutely loving it.
 
As far as sumps go, for me, as long as the sump is well made, has the features you want/need and isn't overpriced then the brand shouldn't matter. So if you like what you see and it fits your needs, get it.
