Hey guys I'm about to take the plunge on either of these. Two awesome reefers are helping me out. I want to make a good choice. I hear Omega is great but I've hea d of pump issues and since it's used I might have worse luck than the original owner. The Simplicity is under a year old but there aren't many reviews on this specific model. I would have preferred a Simplicity DC240 but can't find any for sale at all, much more within my budget.
Power consumption is very important to me and the DC appeals to that but I don't want to sacrifice performance. The reefer with the Omega is also a boss so I'll definitely be buying stuff for me anyway and although I'm leaning toward the Omega, I'm attracted to the low heat/power consumption as electricity is expensive where I am and the heat is another massive factor. Help me decide guys. Thanks.
 
Is the 100 gallon the DT only. I am leaning towards the Simplicity 120 model I have had both skimmers, I used the Vertex 150 Omega on my 120 gallon tank, build quality superb. The Simplicity seems cheaper, the pump is definitely smaller, but I would chose the Simplicity 120 or the Vertex, the Simplicity is better balanced, the Vertex is like a wild horse, way too much air. I currently use a 240 on my 120 gallon tank, DT only.
