Skimmer Help

Reefer831 · Aug 6, 2010

So I am about to buy a ATB skimmer and I can wait, I read a lot of the comments made by you guys and it seems that the ATB 1050 or the 10.5 delux is the way to go for my 160 that I am building. My only question now is what is the difference between the two, other then one cost a lot more then the other? Is it really worth it? and if so why or why not? i really would like to hear from some owners of both. also where is the best place to buy one from, I found some listed for $899 for the 1050 and $1,438 for the 10.5 delux, is that a good price.

I have the 1050 with the upgraded pump. I love it! I have like 200 gallons and it works perfect. I have bought a lot of skimmers. This is by far worth every penny. A good member to talk to is Blackhawkfan. He is the one that gave me all the info when i was looking to buy it. He really knows his stuff and is a great guy. You could just send him a pm.
