Who has a SWC 160 Cone or Skimz Kone SK181?
Can anyone explain the large cost difference between these two skimmers that seem to be fairly comparable? Anyone have any comparison reviews? It sounds like the Skimz pump is a better pump, but $225 difference...? Hmmm...
This skimmer would be replacing the EuroReef RS-180 that is currently employed on my ~100 gallon reef. The ER performs well, but is very noisy and likes to overflow. Skimz Kone SK181 Skimmer pump: 1 Skimz ES2000 needlewheel Power consumption: 12W Air intake: 540 l/h Rated: 50-200 gallons Price: $500 (I think??) SWC 160 Cone Skimmer pump: Atman 2500 Power consumption: 27W Air intake: 650 l/h Rated: 100-150 gallons Price: $275 I would prefer the SWC 180 Cone, but it has a Sicce pump on it which I refuse to buy. Anyone know of a replacement pump for the SWC 180 Cone? |
