I just replaced my crappy thing with a RS 100, wow I can tell you that that thing is definitely worth it! Too bad there were no 135s in calgary, I tried almost every store.

yeah I had an RS135 on my 120g way back when and it skimmed like mad. They work best if your sump has a skimmer baffle that keeps the water level constant for the skimmer or with an auto top off. You'll skim about 3x as much than if the water level fluctuates from evaporation.

Which places did you check for the RS135?

Umm i checked out, Elites, Wais, Oceans and Golds of course, but no one had it, the next thing they had was the 180 which was wayyy too big for my little sump, yea the skimmer is pulling some nasty green tea water out right now. I believe its still in the breaking in stage, it will eventually get better as time progresses... atleast thats what I hope .

Stanley,
