 Yes, and there is a 
good reason for that.
Don't make same mistake that many of us did by wasting money on worthless equipment that has nothing but promises.  
Anything that will draw less then 600 l/h of air is not worth the time and money.
Like some one mentioned on here that "its the pump that makes the skimmer"
Look at Red Dragon pumps or 
ANY pump that pulls anything more then 1000 L/H air, it is significant portion of the skimmer price.  If manufacturer does not say how much air skimmer pulls stay away from it.
