the thing i like about them is all the great reviews they're getting, and you seldom hear about typical cheap skimmer problems like how sensitive they are to water level and clogging needle-wheel, etc. then again the next best thing would be the smallest BK, overkill for my tank no doubt, so anyone gonna chime in for the RC's?

love my rs80 on my reef. used it on a tank just a little bigger than you got, and it pulled out tons of skimmate. great product...in my opinion over skimming can be bad as well when you have filter feeding invertebrates..

They've made a bit of a business change by now selling retail direct from the manufacturer. It's made wholesalers drop the product meaning most retail stores will not be carrying them anymore (such as J&L).

Not exactly a smart move in my opinion, manufacturers shouldn't sell retail but what are you going to do. I don't think the company will be going anywhere just may be harder to find retailers in Canada.

Yup, from what I've heard they've yanked all retail support in Canada - get the leftover stock while you can!

It's their company and their product, but I not sure this is such a good move on their part.

i know JL doesn't get them anymore, but i hear that ocean aquatics and others are getting them in quite frequently, long story short i'm gonna buy that RC80 ASAP, thanks for all the comments :smile:

before this thread slows down, i gotta ask, whos running there RC external and do you get less power out of the pump when running the sedra off a Tee off the return as opposed to taking directly out of the water?

Albert is my lord and saviour. I take his word as gospel. :)



As far at the euroreef goes, I like mine despite what the compnay may be doing on a distribution basis, they make a good skimmer for the price you pay.

mine will suit me just fine until I decide to upgrade to a BK.
