I looked it up and it looks a lot like a Nac7. Even pump is the same.

I saw that OA was west coast distributor for SWC for just a short time. Was kinda wondering why they aren't anymore.
I need a new skimmer for 110 gallon rebuild and thought about both SWC and Bubble Magus but am having second thoughts about both.

Would like to talk to OA first, but does seem odd that they were The distributor for only a very short time. As for Bubble magus, just haven't seen alot of very positive feedback lately.
There is a Eshoppe 100 and a Coralife 125 right now with the system and I know that I am not going to be happy with either one.I have a little time yet before making the decision. But the more feedback the better.
Do you use either one?
