Hi,
I am selling the skimmer that is currently on my 60g tank. It is way overkill for this size tank. It works perfectly and is in excellent condition. I have been running this since April 2017; no issues whatsoever.

These are $279 on BRS.

I will sell this one for $150.

Hoping to not ship this so I'm posting it here in the Ocala forum first.
