well i had to clean the beckett today

build quality is good but not the same as a bubble king-- i would say below deltec too


i am going to have to build a stand to move it up 4 inches i have it in 12 inches of water and supposed to be 8 inches


this is a low nutrient tank so i am not going to get the nog shots like you see

(i have had a deltec, h&s, bubble king on this tank in the last 8 months)

but this is the only skimmer that skimmed as soon as i put it in the tank

OT, but how well did the Bubble King work for you? Did u have an ATO system or a constant sump level? How did it compare to the Deltec and the H&S?

I just choked on my lunch when I saw the price of that thing....... I guess orange acrilic or plastic pulls a premium. Super nice though. How does it do skimming wise? Deltec or H& S quality or better?
