So from a suggestion about building a new tank I decided to get an Eshopps HOB Skimmer. We only have one distributor in Canada. Eshopps is based I think in California I cannot find out where they are made but motor is Sicce from Italy. I bought one about 2 years ago and contacted the supplier only to find out they are completely out of stock due to reaction from the Tarif's what can I say "GREAT? " So Any suggestions ? I read about Tunze Octo but there was another and I cant remember
 
I've heard good things about Tunze skimmers for that application.
 
They are made in china. Look on the marketplace for them (I assume its a PSK-75 you are looking for).....
Lots around...in fact I have one laying around in my shed....with extra Sicce pumps...IMO, best HOB around

Actually did see China mentioned could not believe it. They made an improved one lol none of the old parts will fit especially the motor it is a PSK 100. I found that out the hard way. My 75 quit working so I started to kitbash it. Mayebe I will do that while cycling my tank. save 500.

Because these days there is so much false information. I could not get any info from a website it was just a little unidentified blurb. I could use a 75 I have spare parts for it, As I said they don't make them any more Its PKS-100 for HOB that's it. I also posted I am going to try to revive my old original. Its hard to do because pump assembly that I have is meant for the 100 and unions wont match up. I think its possible. But first I am going to call the supplier here the guy I am talking to only works wed to sat so that will make or break it. Too bad I took my wife to the rose bowl parade 1.5 years ago.
