Skimmer question

[Captain Nemo]

I purchased a skimmer which I believe is a cat 1 hurricone. It is a reef octopus but doesn't identify itself past that point. What do you guys think of the hurricone skimmers? Good? Bad? Ugly?? Is there a way to tell if it is a hurricone? Thanks!!

I love reef octopi! They make great stuff.

Looks like the old version of the Super Reef Octopus 180. Where is the pump?

You could just ask coralvue.

 

[Captain Nemo]

If it'll fit in your sump you can use it.

Oh, you want to know what size to run it in. We need the dimensions of the thing, then we can give you that.
