Any Red Sea Max 250 owners around here? I want to replace the stock skimmer with a better one and need advice. I have heard about the Deltec (now discontinued) and the Aquamaxx WS-1 as options. I'm looking for a good in-sump solution.

Thanks,
Dave

I previously owned a RSM 250 and replaced the skimmer with the Deltec MC500. I didn't really see a huge difference and hated the small collection cup. I ended up going back to the factory skimmer. It works reasonably well if you keep the cup at the correct height.
