bubblemagusskimmers.com in your opinion will the bm 180cs be good for a 155gal tank or do you recomend another bm for under 350.00

is cone shaped better

[Aqua-Digital]

Research tells us cone shape is better as it draws the bubbles more vertically with less turbulance leading to greater DOC being trapped.

The site you show is one of the Chinese sites and the reason why Bubble Magus have now gone down the route of official distributors which we signed to last week. This resolves supply, variant pricing and warranty issues (which are rare).

You have a 600L system so the 180Cs is perfect.

Our dealers will have stock by mid to late February

You can always do what I did and google cone skimmer benefits, advantages research.

This is fantastic news. I will be getting my order in for sure!

[Aqua-Digital]

Update - the shipment is due to leave next week, if all goes well and the shipment does not get caught in the annual holiday new year close down we will have them mid Feb.

I will be releasing prices to dealers once we have final shipping quotes but they are coming in as expected and on target to maintain the prices we have announced.

One note - Bubble magus now moving to distribution supply only are looking at setting MAP pricing, we have worked with them to make sure this stays favourable to you all.

Steve, I'm sure you've seen this but just in case you haven't here's the article: http://www.advancedaquarist.com/2010/1/aafeature

To date it (and the previous study/article), are the only "peer reviewed" articles I've seen published on TOC, and DOC removal for skimmers. This article indicates that the inclusion of a cone did not improve performance for the skimmers tested.

nope never saw that thanks.. confirmed some of my suspisions.. might as well spend 250 on a **** as it will preform just as good as that 900 buck bubble king

that was a good read as the only reading i coule find saying cones were better were from the people trying to sell them.

This is why we will be offering both styles so everyone can have what they want

I think the cone argument is more to do with what people prefer rather than if there is any advantages, the price is the same so it comes down to personal choice.
