Rob, the SWC160 is a great skimmer, these guys are brand new so its tough to say what will perform better. The sicce pulls over 900lph with the pw so its got a better pump. I just wanted to show the new product coming out. I plan on testing them out when released. I'm really excited about the 120 as it will be a very nice budget cone out there for smaller tanks. | |

Luke, DR is not working so i can't even check your post. it is good that you post it up on here as well.
I'm on the market for my coral QT skimmer upgrade as my Octopussy skimmer is way too noisy after i upgraded to your 250A for my DT for side by side noise comparison. I'm just wondering, would your SWC160 Cone be replaced by either AB2001 or Ehiem 1260?
If yes, put me down on one. | |

I tell you what Luke If there is a way to get a deal on one of these. I ll sell my Mojo 3.0 skimmer and give half to rev for his x mas drive. My Mojo skimmer is really nice but it should be on a 90 to 150 well stocked tank. not a 57 g with 3 little fish. lol. | |

I'll be happy to meet up with you Mojo. I think the small one would work for that tank. The neck and air pull are matched up well with that one.
Sorry guys, thought you knew! lol Adrian you can get a via aqua 2600 pump in 220v and swap out the insides and it will work just fine. No since in getting a 140dollar pump that pulls the same air. | |

from the pictures I am sure it just has a o ring in the neck and is a slip fit.
Luke if you get one sooner let me know as I can drive down and pick it up. Actually going to premium this weekend just for fun. riding along with someone taking something back. So I am always around. Might stop at simply in muncie too. IDK yet.
Talk to you soon.
