Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
I am in the same situation as you. I have decided to live with what I have and save for a REAL skimmer. I am leaning towards a Reef Octopus.
Heck if you want a Coralife skimmer I can trade you. LOL
The pump is shot. So you would need to replace it.
I believe this is the new model; found it on Salty Supply.

Edit: What stinks is I have a $200 gift card from work but can only be used certain places. Amazon was one among other independent stores.
This new...
Brian,
I did see that one but max tank size is 100g. So I looked at the next size up. I will have to research more to ensure its not a old style. Thanks
Anyone else like to clue me in?
I am very much considering this skimmer.

ANy thoughts from you guys appreciated.
Max height is 24". I need an inch or two to remove the cup. Right now with the skimmer I have I take off the cup and pump. Lay the skimmer horizontal above the 30g sump, connect the pump and stand it up vertical. Then I add the cup. The sump is stock 30g tank with baffles.
Are ETSS skimmers any...
I agree; its horrible. The whole team was to blame not one person.
Dropped catches from more than one person.
Poor throws from QB. Not mention 1st play safety.
Allowing the Giants to get 3rd down conversions on long yardage practically every time.
The list goes on.....and I am a PATS fan!
Big...
The SWC 180 might be a bit to tight in the cabinet. This really is my problem with getting a new skimmer that I can use an upgrade.
I am aware of the sump water level. The area the skimmer will go in is about 9" of water.
I may have to forgo the upgrade and just get a good skimmer and be happy...
Nitrates are down to 10ppm. I tested today and glad I did. I was doing maintenance on the tank and unplugged the skimmer yesterday and forgot to turn it back on.
