I have the Reef Octopus 110INT and it hasn't given me any issues. It was broken in within a couple days, its relatively silent, and produces a good skim.Does anyone have any experience they can share about reef octopus skimmer such as how the break in is, if it is noisy, is it easy to clean and any other info about their products?
Which models do not perform as expected?RO skimmers are one of the most well known and trusted in the hobby. Almost every model performs as expected. The main differences in cost and models and size and pump. You will get everything you pay for, they are dependable.
It's funny you mentioned that. In the newer reef octopus skimmers that they showed at macna, they now seem to be able to be completely disassembled. So it sounds like they are listening!Had an SRO1000SSS on my last tank. Solid piece of gear. Never gave me any problems, not terribly noisy, skimmed great. Only issue I had was that there are places you can't get to for cleaning. I ended up with a Vertex 180i on my new tank. Don't know that it skims any better, but I will say that the Vertex build quality is a bit higher, and it comes apart completely for cleaning.
I've got the 3000SSS, and I have zero complaints about it. Massive collection cup, compact, quiet and easy to adjust.Does anyone have any experience they can share about reef octopus skimmer such as how the break in is, if it is noisy, is it easy to clean and any other info about their products?
