Skimmer options......

[Marnie]

Hi all, just had a horrendous 2 days as my 72g bow sprung a leak.....

Everything is now in its new 90g home, which brings me to my question...

Currently have a Prism Pro Deluxe and I am thinking I need to upgrade my skimmer to something a bit beefier.

I will be adding a 25g sump late this week so would like to have a skimmer in the sump.

Any suggestions will be appreciated and if anyone in the Victoria area has something approproate for sale.... let me know.

I had a 72 gal bowfront spring a leak about 3 weeks ago too. Was your's an All-Glass?

No mine was Oceanic, but I have heard many of the bowfronts leak eventually.

Where did yours leak from?? Mine was in the middle, back, bottom...if that makes sense.....

Will not buy another thats for sure.......

Mine seemed to be leaking from the left hand side at the back. Now with it empty I can't see a problem with the silicone.
