AS a relative newb take what I have to say for what it is worth. I spent around 3 months reading and looking at skimmers before I picked up a vertex for my 90 gal system. Initially I did have a few issues with it but they were as much from my inexperience as anything. Now that it has been running a couple months or so I have no problems with it. Are better skimmers out there, for sure, But for the $ these seem to be the best bang for your buck IMO.
BtW pump has quieted down a bunch with break in time and some adjusting( I can no longer hear it from more than a few feet away) and is starts up on its own every time now...
