I want ro hear from all you Reefers, what you think the best protein skimmer for the money is on the market today(assuming your tank is 75 gallons and up.) Also I would like to know why?
Thanks....Brent:dance:

Which do you like better Ford or Chev?

There are so many choices these days that's a question that is getting harder and harder to answer. Especially when you add the price of these things, once you buy a top end skimmer you tend to stick with it even if a new flavour of the month comes out. It used to be ReefDevil, then HSA, then Euroreef, who knows what will be out for Christmas. :)

I guess that's why I build my own.

I think your top three choices (in no particular order) are:

Precision Marine
Euroreef
Lifereef

If you are buying one of the top choices, they are all going to perform about the same. But Kenzy is right, choosing which skimmer is one of those things that is highly influenced by personal opinion.

I've seen a berlin in action.. it's okay. Do a scan on other boards, ie reefcentral, aqualink, etc. for more opinions using the names canadawest suggested.
