I believe they are HSA 1000 Skimmers. Beckett style skimmer require large pumps to drive them properly. Check out this site.

http://www.saltcorner.com/Reviews/showreview.php?reviewID=18 This one is a reiewe by Bob Goemans of the older style 1000. I think you will be impressed. I have seen one in action years ago and they are impressive, you take water level to the top on the first section and it creates so much foam that in fills the entire second section and into the cup, with the right pump.

What would one of these be worth ? They told me $350.00 with the mag 24 pump.
This will be used on my 400 gallon reef I'm currently setting up.
