Selling my used Nyos Quantum 160 protein skimmer. It always worked flawless, silent as can be, skimmed great and isn't overly picky on water level in sump. I have owned both the 120 and 160... best skimmers I have ever owned. $375 shipped to the continental USA.

How old is this beast and why are you selling?

It is 1-1/2 years old. I forgot to add that I replaced all of the o-rings about 1 month ago. I broke my tank down.

Like many others I hate to hear this, aff yoor talk has set the standards for a lot of attempted builds. I am in the planning process of a 750xxl and have referenced yoor build, cleanliness, and attention to detail quite a bit. Even funnier when googling control panels and such, yours always pops up! Good luck to you, I hope to see another build with your name on it.

Thank you, I appreciate that! I have BIG plans for the tank... I just won't be needing a skimmer or power heads :)

Where did you get replacement O rings? I think the 120 may have a small one on top of the bubbler tube that I may not have seen when I cleaned it. I found the other two orings (cup and bottom of adjustment tube), but can’t find the small one.

The o-rings come from EcoTech... they are the Nyos distributor for the USA. I don't think they show them online though... you will need to call.
