haven't looked at vertex much cuz I kept hearing that it was more of a good entry level skimmer... I prefer to over skim (currently running a tunze 9016 on a 135 gal) to prevent water quality issues and keep everything stable...
I was told by paul at oceanic that the SWC's use the same pumps as bbk... and for a $180 upgrade I can get the bbk impeller and I pretty much have the bbk at less then 1/2 price... which is why I was leaning that way...
I will look into the other options given, thanks for all of your input... I have 2 months to figure it all out before I swap from the 135 to the 210... so we will see what happens... I will take any input advice that comes my way and appreciate it...thanks in advance.
