All 3 brands are equally good in my opinion, its more of your personal choice. Read on reviews for all 3 products, and pick the one u like best. If you wan good support, try skimz or deltec. Reef depot does great customer service for deltec, drop them a mail, and they got back to me immediately, only downside is that the product must bear the reef depot sticker. Skimz, well...its under AM, so u probably wont have trouble getting warranty claims or supports. As for Vertex, i don't have much experience, but you can always check with iwarna before purchasing. Both needlewheel and venturi has its benefits and downsides. Needlewheel: Creates more finer bubbles, hecks bubbles apart, resulting in better foam head with dense froth. Requires a smaller pump and footprint in comparison, lower wattage. Downside : Lesser waterflow through the skimmer, chance of damaging living critters, needlewheel impellers may cost more for replacement. Venturi: Moves a large amount of water, increased contact time due to whirlpool effect within chamber. Besides cleaning the venturi valve, its pretty much maintenance free. Downside is that it requires high pressure, dedicated pumps which can deal with back pressure in order to function well, properly rated pump size to maximise efficiency of skimmer, heat from the pump, higher wattage of running. Personally, anything more than 300 gallons, its worth going venturi. For smaller volume, needlewheel would be good. Thats probably the big factor why the marine industry made the switch to needlewheel.

This is one of my favourite LPS (Atlantis Jaguar Acan echinata), given to me from bro kkk121. Have growth from 1 to 5 heads now. Just love the colours. Cheers, James

Love LEDs! For many many reasons. Firstly. It produces so little heat! Chiller no need work so much. Secondly, the spectrum is like WOW My coral colours really POP and come alive under LEDs. Last time it used to be blue and white, nothing to wow about. But now its full spectrum! Thirdly it is so powerful. Even corals can bleach under it. Like how powerful could it be to chase away those small little zooxanthellae! And it uses less power for that amount of power. Lastly is the new features that are being developed. Now most R&D are focused alot of LEDs. The prospects of it is very exciting. Now even got wireless control, even can mimic weather. Whatever next! Can't wait to see what else they can come up with
