From the discussions on RC the G4 doesn't perform that well as it uses the same pump as the G3. Something to ponder. Maybe the G4X is different.

G4X is different, bigger pump and bigger skimmer body....

Well, the G4X skimmer came in the mail yesterday, all I can say is it is much bigger then I had pictured! The box it came in could be used for a coffin! 30" tall with 8.5" diameter tubing. Ran it in a freshwater bath last night and it is in the sump this morning. I will take some pictures and post them later. I think I am going to like this skimmer

Got the G4X gave it a bath last night and into the sump this morning.... Big upgrade from the sea-clone 100 if figure
Ended up costing me $536.92 shipped to my mailbox in Blaine... Didn't pay any tax as I had been in the states for two weeks.... This thing is huge
PS rickjames I did sleep in the Box last night.... a little unconfortable... But I guess it could work as a coffin

I finally ordered my G3 from premiumaquatics.com Jason over there has been a great help at getting it shipped here at the lowest cost via Fedex. (they use UPS, but I think UPS Sucks a$$) REALLY looking forward to getting that Prism out and running a true ASM skimmer Just a side note I also ordered a AquaFX Barracuda 4 stage RO/DI, 18W UV filter, 20000k MH's @ 250w, CPR CS50 overflow to connect my 20G into the sump system of the big tank, Quietone 4000 pump for my main tank return and a brand spankin new 130W Aqualight PC light system for my 20 My wife is going to KILL me
