I have a odyseea ps 75, they are far from top of the line lol, and a pain to adjust, however for what it pulls out of the water and what they cost they are worth it, if you can afford to buy a better brand skimmer I would.






to give you an ideal, If I remember corectly thats from about 12 hours, my skimmer is not same as one your looking at, If your gonna buy this brand check out this site Aquatraders

Alright, with that price it looked kinda iffy. You have justified my suspicions. I will more than likely be getting a different brand.

well, the way i look at it is....

if you go with a more expensive brand, you dont need a skimmer that is as big. but if you go for a cheaper brand, you need the largest skimmer available. that one that you are talking abouit goes up to 150g tanks.
