You can still buy them from Marinedepot.com:

But check the link I mentioned earlier, esp. at the last few pages, I believe many people complained about the skimmer.

The only reason I wanted to find one locally was not to pay shipping and the get nailed for taxes ... so it would turn a $30 skimmer into a $100 skimmer...

If no one sells them then i guess I have no choice.

Oh thanks guys..

If they can accomodate to ship using USPS, then for a $30 goods, no taxes and no customs fee.

I bought one for use on my JBL Nanocube. To tell the truth, it works not bad. Fits in the back overflow. You have to adjust it by raising or lowering the unit in the water to get the right level. It then generates a good amount of foam and is pulling gunk out of the aquarium! The problem is that, due to the speed of evaporation, you have to constantly adjust it by either lowering the unit or adding more water...

For the price, I would recommend giving it a try...

I didn't realize that the thread was so long!
