Good choice or Bad?

[blueberryboomer]

Hi all, I just ordered a new skimmer for our 200gal, tell me if we made the right choice.
I ordered the Berlin Turbo Classic-$195.00
What do you think...Good choice or not!

I really like my Berlin. You can't beat them for the money! The Turbo is even better!

Berlin's are supposed to be good, but the one I had ordered stunk, it leaked by the o-ring and we couldn't fix it. The company I bought it from didn't want to return it, and the manufacture never returned any calls to get it replaced. Luckily I paid for it with my credit card and denied the transaction.

I use the Berlin XL on my 200 and it works good. Took a while to get everything working right. The company I bought it from suggested too small of pump in my oppinion. I now have it set in a 30 gallon tank my overflow runs through before going to the wet dry. This also solved the leaking problem I had around the O ring. I used a paste thread sealant before I had submerged the skimmer which also worked. It works much better submerged.
