All good things start with freebies…..
I received a few things I need to identify so I can continue planning and cleaning to revive them.
My son showed up at my door with a 150 gallon oceanic tank (serial number starts with T11.. and built date is Jan 13 2009) it has two back wall overflows. Heavy piece. It’s very dirty but looks in good shape. It also comes with a trigger system crystal 36 gallon sump and inside that I found a skimmer. No clue what it is.
I can not identify and therefore do not know if it has all parts or is even worth saving. . I will report the revival process once I start cleaning and assembling. Already planned a new stand the one it came with is rotten

Please help identify before I spend hours cleaning it….

Oof that’s a tough one! Definitely set up for HOB with the mount. If I had to guess I would say possibly a coralife?? Nice score on the trigger sump I would say look for a in sump skimmer and ditch that dinosaur! lol

That’s actually where my head is. Find a newer one. Their design changed drastically sine 2009

It might be an Odyssea skimmer. There isn't much information about them out there.

I found an old thread talking about odyssey P75. Has the same structure and fittings. Slightly different neck. Was a 2009 skimmer around $100 then. I’ll clean it. See if pump works. Decide then.
