Decent low cost skimmers. They are versitile in that you can use them as 'hang on the back' or 'in the sump'. there are many better skimmers but all cost more. Many people feel that if have extra money to put into any one piece of equipment that you should put it into the best skimmer you can afford. Also, I would suggest getting a skimmer that is rated for a tank 1.5 to 2x their rating.

i have a middle coral life and am pleased with the way it works. i hooked up an air pump to it also tough and it pulls out some of the most disgusting stuff. two days ago i just hooked up a euro reef 80 that i had and waiting to see which pulls more, the coral life is on a 135 and the 80 is on a 90.
hope that helps.

The SS is a good skimmer but I don't recommend it to be used as a hang on. It's a better in sump skimmer and does need to be played with to get the best results. I don't know if I'd buy one again since they raised the price on them.
