    Hi all
    Due to some changes I am making in the fish room I need to put my skimmer up for sale.
    Skimmer is a Trigger Systems TS300 with a modified beckett injector.
    Skimmer comes with a Sequence Reeflo Whahoo pressure rated pump.
    Included also is an auto shutoff collection cup and custom acrylic stand.
    I will also inlude the plumbing between the pump and skimmer.
    System value new is 850.00
    First 500.00 takes it all
    I would prefer NOT to ship it and would be willing to drive to Iowa CIty area to meet you for a drop off. I am in the quad cities.
    I think if you ask any of the club member who have seen this skimmer set up they will tell you how nice it is. It is in perfect condition also.
    Here is a link to pictures

    Pm me if interested or if you have questions...

    Price change....

    400.00 and I will ship but the buyer pays for all shipping costs.

    This is a steal on this skimmer and pump...

    Set up will be available the day my new skimmer arrives, aproximately week after next.

    send me a pm if interested.

    I just saw your post on the skimmer. I am interested. However I can not get a PM through.

    I need to do a little research on the issue before I pull the trigger.

    I am in the market for a skimmer and am considering an Octopus Pro 300

    Do you have any advice on how your skimmer compares with the Octopus?

    pretty shure that you would rather have Einsteins skimmer and not one that you can get in a pet store

    It is a very nice skimmer. Heck, I copied it the best I could with my DIY one. I just wish mine worked as well.

    I will leave this for club members for a short bit longer as my new skimmer will be here next week.
    After that I am going to list it outside the club.

    This setup is in MINT condition as it is external and has no gunk on it or anything, very clean!
    Those that have been by my house and seen it in person, I believe will agree with me.

    I'd like to hear about your new skimmer and why you went with that model?

    If I could have justified the money this would have been mine last weekend. Great skimmer and well worth whats being asked.

    I read about these skimmers online and did some research.

    I have literally found no bad feedback on these units the performance is great and build quality is being raved about.
    I have been talking via forums with Jon Warner about the units. the unit I am getting uses a Modded Sedra900 that is pulling 1100 LPH when combined with their machined custom venturi.

    From everything I see and hear these skimmers are going to give the big boys a run for the their money at a great price point with better performance.

    There is also a Custom made stand for the skimmer that raises it up to allow it to empty into a sump etc.

    You can see my actual skimmer in the link within my original post.
