I am upgrading all of my equipment and selling some things that are in good shape. I will consider any offer since I just want to move these. PM me for details.Octopus Recirculating Protein skimmer - DNW-110 imported by Coralvue. This has the gate valve modification, and mesh mod done. Mods cost me $40 to complete. It was ordered April 21 for 176.00. Buy it shipped for $130.

I will buy your t5ho fixture, but what do you mean by rebuilt?
I removed the stock POS single reflector and installed individual reflectors. Because the individual reflectors are wider I had to widen the unit to 10.5" wide. This involved a good amount of fabrication but the end result was very good.
Here is a quick pic I just snapped. Excuse the salt spray; I haven't cleaned up the equipment yet.

Can I get the specs on the protein skimmers
This is the Octopus
- 4.29" Diameter
- 23.4" Tall
- Equiped with with needle wheel impeller recirculating pump
- Requires additional feed pump with gph rating at approx. 1.5 times volume of your system.
- Recommended for aquariums up to 125 gallons
- Footprint 6" x 11"
This is the Remora:
Model # : Remora Hang-On Tank Size (Gallons): 20–75 Included Pump: MaxiJet 1200 Skimmer Height: 17.5" Minimum Tank Height: 12.75" Minimum Overhead Clearance for Proper Function: 5.5" Depth: 2.75" Width: 6"
I wouldn't recommend the Octopus for an aquarium larger than 75 gallons unless lightly stocked. I wouldnt use the Remora on a tank larger than 40 unless lightly stocked.

Nevermind then, I am going to go with a larger skimmer
