I've known RD doesn't carry BK skimmers anymore, that's why I ask where to get them now.

Will do bro. Any bros out there have tried both Deltec and BK skimmers? Which would you go for?

If money is burning a hole in your pocket, BK skimmer wins all, nothing even comes close in terms of build quality, silence and fine foaming.

Materialism :- He who dies with the most toys, wins.

It does sounds like BK is better than Deltec from your reply.

Bro Resser, you meant to say, if money is not an issue than go for BK skimmer is it?

Roughly how much is the range in terms of costing? $500, $1000, $1.5k??

This is my 2 cents, before u decide on what skimmer to get, ask yourself what will u be keeping in the tank? SPS, LPS, Fowlr? Alot of ppl misunderstand that if i use the best skimmer, my tank will be very good. Lesser maintainance needed.. but if u look ard in forum, there are alot of master who use normal stuff yet they have much nicer tank compared to those who think highend stuff mean nice tank.
