Would you rather: Skimmer Question

YHSublime · Apr 19, 2014

Would you rather have a used Vertex Alpha 250 skimmer with a red dragon pump

Or would you rather have a brand new Avast CS3 recirculating skimmer with two PSK-1000's and a MJ1200?

Why, for whatever you choose.

I have had experience with Avast, but not Vertex. There is obviously I large price difference, but do you think the performance is worth it? There is a used one for sale, and I am thinking about taking the plunge.

Avast with recircs.
Reason: Recircs are the best, they collect alot of garbage in those because of the ability of those other pumps to froth really really well.

I'd go with the red dragon pump over the PSK's.
