Yeah they seemed like great skimmers but the customers were left stranded after Spazz (Builder off RC) basically disappeared. I think he was MIA shortly after Bill Wahn and his 20,000 gallon tank went under the radar. People have done mods to these to achieve the performance they should have had but I think general consensus is that as is, they under-perform.

I looks Well built. Like any skimmer has it advantages and disadvantages. I thought it looked cool. I has all the bells and Wiesel's!

Yeah I think he was the first to develop a needlewheel for the dart and that idea certainly caught on. When I was building a 400 gallon I had emailed him for a quote and it was more than 4k. They look very well built.
