which skimmer

[heliguy71]

hey looking at skimmers today but can;t decide between Super Reef Octopus XP-2000 or the super reef octopus 3000.

the xp2000 cone is rated for 200gal and the 3000 is rated for 300gal-both the same price and pumps are both bubble blaster.

anyone here reviews on either one

thanks mike:bigsmile:

granted i have a turbofloater also but its on the frag set up for now...yep they suck and overflow alot....but i ( of corse ) modded mine with a differant pump set up...i did the red dragon mod on an aquaclear 805 power head and also took off the up and over of the skimmer to make it a sump only skimmer....it skimms faily good now but when i get a new skimmer it will be for the display first then im going to rebuild my monster skimmer with new pumps and stuff to utilize the 6" neck i have on it...maybe 2 bubble blasters on it
