I have a D&D 1500 pro reef heavily stocked.
Am looking at a new skimmer. I currently have a Reef Octopus 150sss the straight bodied one. I am looking at the next level up and don't have a lot of space. Not adverse to buying secondhand. I notice there are a lot of Red Sea 600s for sale here in the UK. I am concerned there are so many of them which makes me think people aren't happy with them for whatever reason. Thoughts, suggestions and experiences please.

I am no redsea fan, but that aside when I ran a skimmer it was a redsea 600, and it worked quite well for me.
